For as long as I can remember I've always wanted kids and tons of them. I've always had emet too, but that never really factored into it for me. I just figured we'd deal with it when those times came. Since then I've had three children and I'm pregnant with our fourth. My second pregnancy did trigger something and my emet got worse than it's ever been in my life. I was seriously a recluse. It was a really hard time in my life. Now I'm better. Don't get me wrong. I still struggle with this dang phobia alot, but I wouldn't give my kids up for anything in the world, not even a cure for emet. Sometimes I do worry that I'm shortchanging them because of this fear. God,I hope I'm not.Edited by: sherbear
