Do you watch the baby / birth shows on TV?
Sometimes I do and it makes me cry and cry...

No. I used to watch the wedding story and baby story shows years and years ago, but then they got boring because they are repetitive. I think now it might get depressing, but I have too many other things to watch anyway.

I love watching those shows, sometimes I cry, sometimes I don't. Depends on my mood and where I am in my cycle. My new favorite is One Born Every Minute.

Did you see the one where the girl had twins that had different fathers? That was crazy!

If I'm home alone, I watch them. And yes, I bawl the entire time.

Okay, this is gonna sound all messed up in the head, but here's where I'm at...
I don't watch the shows like "A Baby Story," where they're all excited about the baby coming, then there's this perfect little newborn... I haven't tried, and I won't.
I DO watch Teen Mom 2 though, which is an AWFUL show... But watching that show reminds me how great Zach and I are together, and what wonderful parents we're gonna be one day. None of those babies are in situations that are dangerous to them, they all have someone in their lives who loves them, whether it's the parents, just the mom, or just a grandma, they do have a future ahead of them. If any of them looked like they didn't have a bright future ahead I wouldn't be able to watch. Although one of the babies is getting tested for neurological issues right now, but that's cathartic for me too in a way, because Drew had so many neuro issues. Of course I'm very sad the little girl has the problems, but it's strange... It's kind of like seeing what acceptance looks like with a living child...

I don't watch any of those shows, mostly because I've been addicted to Netflix lately

I'm watching bringing home baby right now, I'm not crying, but sad. I usually cry during the ones where they actually give birth. We will all have our moment...

Oh I watch teen mom as well! That one woman needs a slap on her head though... That's all she does is yell, yell, yell. and while her daughter is no saint I can understand why the girl tries to stay away from her house. The mom does take good care of the baby but she could ease up on the yelling a bit.
Nicole - what are you watching on netflix? I am done with dollhouse and watch svu all the time but need something new!

I know who you're talking about, the one that just signed custody over? That girl drives me crazy. She calls spending time with her child, "babysitting." She's not even a good older sister, much less a mother. But then HER mom, wow, she's something... Won't even let the girl bring her baby out in public... It's one of those situations where you can see how a messed up family dynamic is just perpetuating itself.
