November 10, 2011 - 8:02 am
My situation is pretty unique still. I was 38 but pregnant with an embryo of a 29 year old woman. So while I was high risk, the fetus wasn't. We still did testing, but did not go as far as an amnio, etc. We still had some semi scary months because of an ultrasound. I really just believed it was going to be ok though, and it was.

Martha: I just wrote another book in which I talk about how Adam has taught me to see; it occurred to me that he took me from "aloneness" to "all-oneness." Open yourself to the experience, and you'll find unexpected magic happening. Really.
Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy)
November 10, 2011 - 8:12 am
Martha - did you plan your third pregnancy? Were you ever concerned that adding a third child would be too much?
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:12 am
I'm going to dive right in with a question from one of our members, Marianne of http://www.writer-mommy.com/ There are many “supernatural” events to which you refer in this book, the majority happening durng your pregnancy. In the years since Adam arrived and since this book was published, how have those events (and any that have occured since the publishing of the book) affected and/or deepened your spirituality/faith?
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:13 am
Okay, point one: I did plan my third pregnancy, although really John was more urgent about it than I felt. It was lucky I had another child soon, because my body completely gave out not long after.
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:14 am
In answer to the "supernatural" events: I've come to see them as utterly natural. I think it's unnatural NOT to experience them, and our culture actually suppresses them the way the Victorians suppressed sexuality.
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:15 am
@MarthaB Do you think that your "supernatural" events are what some might call their intuition?
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:15 am
Adam is incredibly psychic--always knows what's happening to me no matter where I am, knows how to get complex information to others when he really still doesn't talk much. After 23 years, I'm tired of dancing around the issue--I long ago lost my ability to deny the evidence that there's something spooky about that little man.
Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy)
November 10, 2011 - 8:15 am
I felt very challenged by your idea to believe everything until proven false, instead of only believing if proven true. That's a tough one for a scientist.
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:16 am
We call it intuition, we call it a gut feeling, we call it love. Call it whatever you like, the joy is that we have a huge field of reality to play around in. I absolutely believe science will understand it one day. But for now, it looks pretty darn magical!
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:16 am
This is a good lead in to a question from Jennie B of http://www.wantapeanut.com : I was troubled by the idea that Adam was somehow more magical than your other children. What do your daughters think about this? How did your subsequent pregnancy, after you found your new spirituality, compare to your time expecting Adam?
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:18 am
But the issue is that if you believe nothing until it's proven true, you literally CAN'T BELIEVE ANYONE. Descartes pointed out that you could be dreaming your life. Everything is filtered through perception--and we've known for almost 100 years--scientifically--that perception not only filters reality, but in some way determines it. Einstein had trouble believing it at first, too, but then he had to acknowledge the experimental evidence.
Worldtravelmom
November 10, 2011 - 8:18 am
There's nothing more magical than a mother's intuition in my opinion. We just don't always understand the power of it, and therefore have a hard time recognizing it. Just had to say that real quick.
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:19 am
My kids, and your kids, and you, are all much more interesting than we typically believe. My daughters are natural mystics, though I left them to develop their own beliefs (had enough religion stuffed into me as a kids, didn't want to do that). My daughters also know that Adam is different, that he shines in a strange way, and they know that does nothing to diminish their own magic.
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:19 am
@Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy): that's an interesting thought. I feel like we need to believe everything we see/feel is true in order to make sense of life
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:20 am
There are two ways to see the world (paraphrasing Einstein again): as though nothing is a miracle, or as though everything is a miracle. Both equally potentially true, but for me, the second one's more fun!
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:21 am
@MarthaB: Do you still feel the presence of puppeteers (from Melanie @ http://myattkids.blogspot.com/)
Joyce
November 10, 2011 - 8:21 am
Just having read the book has opened my eyes to the magic of my life and my kids. Thank you for that, Martha!
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:21 am
Adam has taught me not to hold any belief too tightly. I know that I really don't know anything, and that's okay. More than okay, it's a joyful, liberating truth!
Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy)
November 10, 2011 - 8:22 am
I think it is very much about opening yourself up. Hopefully my brain is evolving as I get older and "wiser." It's easier to accept without proof, even though my education/training is so strongly focused on "evidenced based."
MarthaB
November 10, 2011 - 8:23 am
I have a question for Joyce: Do you ever feel as if YOU have puppeteers? It could be my unconscious brain, or Smurfs, or whatever, but I do often feel that way. Yesterday I was teaching a workshop and for some reason turned on my cell phone mid-class. At that moment a client called, sobbing, having just undergone a trauma. Why did I turn on my phone? I don't know.
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:23 am
@Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy): My younger self (albeit 5 years ago) was very negative, until I learned how to open myself to the positive energy around me. I'm a very practical person and back then didn't believe in that "hippie dippie stuff"
Betsy
November 10, 2011 - 8:24 am
So how do you decide what -- of all the the unproven theories and people -- to believe?
Kristine (Mommy Needs Therapy)
November 10, 2011 - 8:25 am
I'm a very different person than I thought I would be prior to adopting Noah. I have learned so much from him, even as we struggle. I like the "me" I am now much better, but I never, ever saw myself becoming this person. If that makes sense. Sorry, I am monopolizing this chat.
From Left to Write
November 10, 2011 - 8:26 am
@MarthaB does your husband all experience puppeteers? Your daughters?
Joyce
November 10, 2011 - 8:26 am
Yes, Martha, I do feel that way sometimes. But I what I was trying to say before, is that I don't think I would have paid any attention to the coincidences. After reading your book, I began to look at it differently. It's so much more fun! And I am in awe of the way things unfold sometimes...this is a gift that you have given to me. And I have passed it along to some of my friends who have, in turn, read the book.
Shannon
November 10, 2011 - 8:29 am

What Would You Ask Martha Beck? Call For Questions

November 7, 2011 6 Comments
Martha Beck headshot

Martha Beck headshot

We’re thrilled to have Martha Beck join us on book club day this Thursday, November 10 when From Left to Write bloggers discuss her book, Expecting Adam.

Martha Beck will be chatting live with our bloggers and you, our readers, at 1PM Eastern (convert it to your time zone).  In case you missed it, here’s more about the new edition of Expecting Adam:

John and Martha Beck had two Harvard degrees apiece when they conceived their second child. Further graduate studies, budding careers, and a growing family meant major stress–not that they’d have admitted it to anyone (or themselves). As the pregnancy progressed, Martha battled constant nausea and dehydration. And when she learned her unborn son had Down syndrome, she battled nearly everyone over her decision to continue the pregnancy. She still cannot explain many of the things that happened to her while she was expecting Adam, but by the time he was born, Martha, as she puts it, “had to unlearn virtually everything Harvard taught [her] about what is precious and what is garbage.”

What would you want to ask Martha Beck or Expecting Adam? Leave your questions in the comments and it might be chosen for our chat.

I hope you can join us at 1PM Eastern on November 10!

Live Chat Tomorrow w. Jamie Patterson of Lost Edens

November 1, 2011 Leave a Comment
Jamie Patterson, author of Lost Edens

Jamie Patterson, author of Lost Edens

Last week our bloggers opened their hearts as they  discussed Lost Edens by Jamie Patterson. Though her ex-husband was not physically violent against her (based on what we read in her memoir), his emotional and psychological abuse was just as, if not more, harmful.  Jamie’s experience resonated with some readers, while others couldn’t understand how her ex-husband had such a grasp on her.

Tomorrow, you’ll have a chance to chat live with Jamie on the From Left to Write Facebook page. Make sure you go ahead and “Like” the page so you’re ready to meet and talk to Jamie directly on our Facebook wall tomorrow, November 2nd at 1PM Eastern.

Lost Edens by Jamie PattersonIf you haven’t read her book yet, you are more than welcome to join us. You can get a glimpse at the themes in her book by visiting our bloggers’ posts inspired by Lost Edens. Here’s some more info about Jamie:

Jamie Patterson is a  writer, teacher, runner, and dog owner who has been writing since she was 9-years-old as the “kids corner” reporter for the Tangletown News in Minneapolis. She is now an academic editor and lives in Minneapolis with her dog, Huey. For Halloween this year, Huey wore a bull costume with a cowboy strapped to his back.

Again, our live chat with author Jamie Patterson is Wednesday (tomorrow), November 2 at 1PM Eastern on our From Left to Write Facebook page. Visit the Lost Edens Facebook page before you head over to the chat!

See you there!

Feel free to leave questions for Jamie in the comments below, especially if you’re unable to make our chat.

November Book Club: Expecting Adam by Martha Beck

October 31, 2011 2 Comments
Expecting Adam by Martha Beck

Expecting Adam by Martha Beck

It’s not quite November yet, but our book club members are excited about our next month’s book club selection, Martha Beck’s Expecting Adam: A True Story of Birth, Rebirth, and Everyday Magic (Three Rivers Press).  Martha Beck is a prolific writer and is well known for her monthly column in O. Magazine.

In Expecting Adam, Martha Beck writes a bit closer to home. Originally published in 1999, her memoir reveals the months leading up to the birth of her Down Syndrome son Adam and his childhood years. This  new edition includes  a new chapter from the author.

   John and Martha Beck had two Harvard degrees apiece when they conceived their second child. Further graduate studies, budding careers, and a growing family meant major stress–not that they’d have admitted it to anyone (or themselves). As the pregnancy progressed, Martha battled constant nausea and dehydration. And when she learned her unborn son had Down syndrome, she battled nearly everyone over her decision to continue the pregnancy. She still cannot explain many of the things that happened to her while she was expecting Adam, but by the time he was born, Martha, as she puts it, “had to unlearn virtually everything Harvard taught [her] about what is precious and what is garbage.”

Parents will find the memoir fascinating as we learn how the medical profession and society dealt with special needs in the 1990s as compared to today. Grab you copy and come back on November 10 as From Left to Write members discuss Martha Beck’s Expecting Adam.
