{📷 via @artfucker } 〰️ On the same day that ${📷 via @artfucker } 〰️ On the same day that I was quoted in @cnn saying “I'm feeling really optimistic," about the fact that my kids’ NYC public school had zero COVID cases so far — I received news of a positive case in our son’s class. The text messages began flying at me before I even had a chance to read the official email from school. And between our class What’s App group, my mom friends from class, and parents I knew from other classes, the whole lot of us began a frenzied mission to figure out who Contagion Number One was. “Ask B. who wasn’t in class on Tuesday,” I texted one friend. I missed the entire Friday night debate because I was trying to figure out — along with a slew of other parents I knew — who the Covid Kid in our class was. (Spoiler: it wasn’t someone in our class. But it gets too complicated to explain from here.) The craziness continued into the weekend, with parents alerting everyone else about the status of their kids’ COVID tests. “All negative here!” sang the cheery updates💁‍♀️. So much virtue signaling, as if to say: “Don’t worry! It’s not me! Not us! Totally clean, sanitary, and safe in our house!”🥴 The thing that’s been on my mind all weekend is, how freaking bonkers it is that we found it so essential as a group to know WHO the kid was. What difference would it make? The outcome is the same — we all had to keep kids home for a quarantine period, and we all had to get our kids tested (per DOE guidelines). Would it have made us feel better to know? More in control? We were in such a rush to point fingers and stigmatize a family when we know very well this can happen to ANY ONE of us who has taken on the risk of going to school. Or leaving the house. And yet we (myself included) could not let it go — the wondering, the witch hunt. I’ve stopped engaging in it, and egging it on. I know I did more than my share. But I wonder — has this frenzy happened to you yet? If there were a case somewhere close within your community, would you have a burning desire to know who had it? Would love to hear thoughts! . . . #notsafeformomgroup #heymomgroup #nsfmg #cnn #schoolreopening #covid_19 #witchhunt #momjudgment #momshame$

{📷 via @nik_gallo } 〰️ This post is about m ${📷 via @nik_gallo } 〰️ This post is about miscarriage and IVF 〰️ “Hey Mom Group: Please post anonymously. I’d love to hear from other moms who have had to make a decision about unused embryos from IVF. I realize we are very fortunate to have had successful IVF and a child after several excruciating miscarriages, but we are faced with a tricky decision. We are going to do another embryo transfer in hopes of [conceiving a] 2nd child, but we are not [planning] to have more than 2 kids. In all likelihood, we will have unused embryos. When we embarked on IVF we were so focused on having a baby and [avoiding] miscarriage. We didn’t think too hard about having “extra” embryos. And then we were plunged into parenthood, which was so much harder than I anticipated. (Thus, only 2 kids. My sanity can’t do more unfortunately.) At some point we’ll have to decide about remaining embryos and it’s so sensitive and hard. Also hard to talk about with friends because it can be triggering. We can opt to dispose, donate to other people, or donate to science. How have other moms reckoned with this???” — Anon. 〰️ Miscarriage doesn’t just look “one way.” A family with healthy babies can be the same family struggling with secondary infertility, or mourning previous losses. Many families with successful IVF journeys struggle with loss, as well as the very complicated questions that surround having choice over what to do with embryos we don’t intend to use. Even the language around it is triggering: “dispose”, “discard”, “unused.” There are few forums where these feelings can be talked about but some safe spaces that we love include @sistersinloss @harmonybirths @sunnysideupnyc and @ihadamiscarriage . Hoping we can open up a conversation here, to let this mom and families like hers know they are not alone — during #pregnancyandinfantlossawareness month and year-round. . . . . #notsafeformomgroup #nsfmg #heymomgroup #ivfjourney #ivf #infertilityawareness #miscarriageawareness #miscarriage #embryotransfer #iui #iuisuccess #iuijourney #pregnancyandinfantlossawarenessmonth$
