When I found out I was pregnant (again) I decided to start a separate blog for the baby (http://weebabymoon.blogspot.com/) and I'm glad I did. It's been a great way for me to connect to the baby because in the beginning I was afraid to get too attached for fear of losing him. I thought I would share a few things that I have enjoyed about being pregnant...
- hearing the baby's heartbeat
- happily sharing great news with people that love us (the love is overwhelming, by the way)
- feeling the healthiest I have felt in a long time
- my hair is thick...really thick...thicker than usual
- not feeling guilty about eating a fudgesicle oh so frequently (or maybe two in one sitting)
- honestly...enjoying regular bowel movements
- sharing the excitement with my kids at school...it's so fun to see how excited they get
- talking to Gia (niece) about the baby and seeing that look of excitement-amazement-wonderment in her eyes
- knowing that God is taking care of me and the baby (this has been challenging, but I know He is there)
- nightly talks with Chad about how we are going to parent...and the many things we laugh about because we have absolutely no clue
- eating homemade bean burritos for breakfast (almost every day)
- napping...and not feeling guilty about it
- slowing my life down...and enjoying every minute of it
- feeling the baby move...I can't explain the miracle-feeling of this...I don't want to take this for granted
- again...the heartbeat...that precious, little sound of life
These are only a few that come to mind right away. I'm sure there are more.
I need to be better about blogging...Here's a picture of me at 24 weeks. I may or may not have popped a button on my jacket. Oops.
