A Baby Story

Do any of you watch a Baby Story on TLC?

I am sitting here on my only day off glued to the television watching it.  Its like self torture. It makes me sad,  I cry for the entire hour its on... but I cant turn it off.

Is that sick or what?

It's funny that I watched a Baby Story before I actually started ttc and that was only when I was just thinking about it.  Now I can't bear to watch it.  You're right, it's self-torture.  How about that family, I think in Jersey, who just delivered five babies!!  What's that, quintuplets?  I don't want five, but twins would be excellent!! :-)

I didn't hear about quint's.... That is a lot of babies.  Sometimes that is sad to me because they are so small and have such a rouch start.  I do agree though, twins would be great!!  
I am sitting here with the remote telling myself to turn it off, I just cant for some reason. Every time they show the baby being born I just start sobbing. Maybe I am some king of closet masochist.....

I can't bear to watch it that was the only thing on TV decent to watch when I was home during my MC.  Since then all I can do is cry when I see it on Tv.....I know what a sap huh.

Watching a Baby Story right now is up there with going to a baby shower.  I don't know which one is worse.  I get sad when I think about how I probably tortured women before who were ttc and I didn't know.  I had two kids not planned and I didn't know it could feel like this when you want something so badly.  At work we would talk about this woman who we knew was ttc and each month around the same time (we assumed it was when AF arrived) she would be the biggest grouch until she finally conceived.  Now I know why.  So a Baby Story cannot be watched in my house until I get my BFP!!

B4 I mc I watched 'em all. I think there's another one called Birth Day or something like that. I did learn a lot about how many different complications are out there. Also how different every labor is. I tune in now and then but for the most part avoid them.
