My first son is here

Baytown was a welcome change of pace. I was now nine months pregnant and had tried so hard to put Robs memory in the past but, this day it would not be easy. The pains were so sever and I sat in the waiting room wishing the nurse would come. I needed for this to be over , that somehow I felt would cut the tie between Robert and myself. Seventeen hours later Bill was born he was fat and beautiful and did not look that much like Rob, thank God . I don't think I could of made it if he had been his mirrow image. The months passed and my son grew so fast.Now I felt I could make a clean cut from Larry and get on with my life ,start over, just my son and I. I went to the Dr. and had an IUD put in .I went through the motions of marriage with Larry. I opened a savings account and developed a written plan, hid it in my dresser and pulled it out to read when ever I needed to remind myself of what I needed to do next. Then one morning I felt severe pain in my pelvic area and called to get a appointment with my OB Dr. Cummings. Yes I could be there by three. I could not beleive what I was hearing This Sept. day the IUD must of been lost or out of place Dr. Cummings said
"you are now about 8 weeks pregnant." I know he was still talking but, I left the room how can this be I was doing so good on my written plan there was no room on there for this . Dear God how can I do this. Larry was very happy and used it to remind me how dependant I was on him and his medical insurance he knew I wanted out. This baby was due April 2nd to be sure by April 28 1972 I would be gone. I had to be out of this marriage.
