Hi Lou,
I just want to tell you I think you are awesome!!!!
You posed a question here that you were really struggling with, seeking genuine caring input to help you make a decision that was best for you and your little one. I am very happy you made the decision that you did. But even if you didn't -I think it is so important that we are civil and charitable to one another even if we agree to disagree on a particular issue.
I'm sure you did a thoughtful contemplation of all the answers you received, some I agreed with and some I did not. But I think everyone has a right to their opinion and to be heard.
I think you were very restrained in your previous response.
XOXOXO
