Let me take a deep breath here before I type this post.
I'm not going to get into specifics about everything I was told, but I found out tonight that one of K's defense strategies is going to be the "She's infertile and wants my kid" card.
I find it appalling. This has NOTHING to do with what my reproductive system can or can't do. I find it highly unprofessional for a psychiatrist to inquire about my fertility diagnosis' as the reasoning behind me filing for custody of A.
If this was the reason I filed for custody of A, why did my lawyer accept the case?
If this was the reason I filed for custody of A, why did the judge request to see us within three business days of filing the papers out of concern of the welfare of the child?
Just because one is infertile does not mean they are out to take whatever baby or child they can.
It irritates the shit out of me people keep saying my infertility is or has played a role in filing for custody of A.
It's not, nor has it ever been about my reproductive system.
This is about a child, a child who deserves a fucking chance who's parents are fucking incompetent.
Plain and simple, this guy was a biased, paid-for gun for them. He couldn't give two shits about whether or not A is being properly cared for. They got what they paid for, someone to make K look like a motherfucking saint.

Your title says it all. What a cheap effing shot!
I can't believe she would pull that card on you.
Hopefully the judge sees right through that card. He'd be an idiot if he didn't.
Keeping you in my prayers!
It is a cheap shot. But, honestly, one I saw coming. I mean, it's an easy shot. I remember being told I only wanted to adopt or foster kids because I couldnt "have my own". It's a ludicrous thought, but people are ignorant. I think that, in order to quell the judgement or the thoughts that might come out of it, you have to accept it and acknowledge it before they can pull the card. "Yes, I'm infertile and have struggled to have biological children. It's my diagnosis- like cancer; it's not who I am." It's going to be hard and they will probably try everything in the book to get you to slip up and say that you are really doing this because of some underlying fertility issue. Just be honest- about yourself and your reasons- with the judge. Like Nikke said, it's his job to see through the lies.
