[QUOTE="Sam3, post: 722502, member: 19290"] Your perspective is beautiful. You are right. You gave him a special childhood filled with love and experiences and opportunities. That can't be erased for either you or for him. You describe that feeling so poetically -- "empty in the place we call mother." I have two others but I know there is still this feeling akin to amputation. I can't retract or shrink the motherhood for my firstborn. Being here is a way to fill that space, for me. I'm trying to be the parent he needs me to be with the wisdom and support of everyone here. I hope it's similar for you. But I know I would rather make him soup. [/QUOTE]
