Sounds like a solid foundation for a job. Interesting, too. Autism can be perplexing and incredible at the same time. I've taught a few autistic kids in special ed. Interesting. Anyway, it sounds like to me that your fear of pregnancy is totally IBS based. Hey, if we can manage labor, certainly we can handle whatever IBS throws at us through pregnancy. Besides, you have a fair control of your symptoms, right? You already have lots of coping strategies in place, and you have us. I was wondering, now that I'm almost 4 months pregnant - HOW did you manage with two? I'm so afraid that I can't manage my son (who will be 2 when the baby is born) plus the baby plus IBS plus Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (I was just diagnosed this fall and am coping). IBS and OCD are clouding this pregnancy - is that making me worry so? Is it normal to worry about how we will manage? To complicate things, my husband works out of town a lot - so I'm on my own 24 hours a day most of the time. I have a great Mom and Mother-in-law so I'm not totally without support but it's not the same. Any advice? How did you manage with baby number 2? I'm so worried!
