Changes

A Penny For Your Thoughts...


As our second....well kinda our first real appointment quickly approaches my mind is filled with a million questions. What questions should I ask, how big will the baby be, will the baby be healthy, when would we know if the baby isn't healthy?As my worries fade and the hormone levels drop the what if's of baby growing slowly fade into a happier set of what if's. Will our baby be a girl or a boy, have my eyes, Shawn's nose? Will it love to dance and sing, sit in quiet reflection, what will it want to be when it grows up? Though most of these questions will be answered way down the road in life one thing is already certain our little baby will be loved and hugged and kissed to death.


Mommy's World...



Crazy hormones, walking into my world and turning it upside down. Yesterday I was asked what it felt like to be pregnant. I said it was awe inspiring how God created our bodies to change in such amazing ways to carry a child and that i wake up everyday excited to see how me and our baby our changing and growing together. What I was really thinking is can you move I realllyyyyy need to use the bathroom! After using the bathroom I inspected my pimple covered face and tried to do something with my oily hair. Oh and can we talk about veins? I'm like a walking road map! Biggest pregnancy downer is literally a downer,  as in I always want to lay down. Lucky for me though all of my biggest concerns and "symptoms" if you will can be explained and analyzed constantly by complete strangers. It is amazing what someone who has never met or talked to you in their entire life suddenly feels comfortable saying and doing to you. One lady I worked with walked straight up to me and put her hand on my tiny bump and asked me if I was hoping for a girl or a boy? I told her, "shhh...I don't want to put that kind of pressure on the baby." she stared at me confused and stated that she had 3 kids...ummm.... ok? Is this were I ask you a bunch of questions or marvel at your motherhood? yes people will force their opinion on you without shame, you shouldn't drink that, what are you trying to do stunt your babies growth, you should be more careful. All frustrations aside it has been a relatively easy ride for me. I haven't experienced any true morning sickness the whole time, a little headache here and there, some abdominal cramps but I tell you baby is being quite easy on mom. Fingers crossed!!


They say your children will look like a mix of you and your husband when you were born....Here is me, next post will have Shawn's baby picture!
