It?s not the slow-motion smiling dance you thought you?d be doing with your newborn, while wearing a flowy white blouse.? ?Laura S.

And that when she was born, I felt actual grief that I had to start sharing the baby, as if our private partnership was invaded after months of a wordless conversation between us.? ?...
