Dirty Girls On Top

Hola Meanies,


I have been reading this book for awhile now "Dirty Girls On Top". This book is great ! It's about 6 women who have been friends since college. They're all successful career wise but their personal relationships need help. One person that stands out to me the most is Sara, owns her own magazine, married and owns 5 houses. The one thing she that's missing is a child.

She has been dying to start a family and has had a few miscarriages. So on a vacation with her friends, she didn't want to tell them she was pregnant because she didn't want to get everyone all excited. Which I agree because she had miscarriages before. On her way back home she had a miscarriage in the airplane bathroom. Also her mother told her she will lose this child too because she's pregnant for a black man. She went to the doctor, he said she has an incompetent cervix. There's a procedure that can be done to fix it but she also has a malformed uterus....that's a double whammy. Doctor told her to just go on birth control because she's gonna continue to have miscarriages.

This is the prime example why I hate to hear folks dying to start a family. Don't try let it happen on it's own. People try and try and nothing will happen for years but as soon as they stop it happens. If it's not something wrong with you then it's your significant other. Let it be, you can't control everything. Finding out that a specific part of your body is incompetent is the worse kind of news anyone can ever hear. I haven't finished reading the book yet but I'm sure she's gonna figure something out.
