As much as it gets in the way sometimes, I really will miss it! I love my pregnant body! I love feeing Baby Girl kick, and watching my tummy move as she does! Spent a long time laying back in the bath yesterday morning, just watching my bump. And when she started punching in the lower half where I couldn't see, I watched the ripples she was creating in the water! So much love already. I didn't realise just how much of my attention and thoughts would be already focused on this tiny being, before she's even drawn her first breath. I already know I would give my life for this child. And it is completely true, the love for your child does not detract from your love for your partner, I just have more love to give. I actually love my husband more than ever, for how he loves me and looks after me, and especially the way he talks to my bump. Just love love love!
It all makes up for the SPD (which is worse after skidding on the ice two days ago), the heartburn (which can be triggered by NOTHING!), the hideous hormones (not going into them as this is a happy blog post), and the tiredness and general discomfort.
I still have moments where I can't believe I am actually pregnant. We are actually going to have a baby, and I will actually be a Mamma. :) I will be 36 weeks in two days. Four weeks until her EDD. Slightly scary, more exciting, and inspiring a huge sense of gratitude. For being pregnant and for having such an easy time of it so far. It's not always been 'easy', but in comparison to some, it's certainly been a smooth journey! All the hard bits have been with me, at no point have we had any concern for Baby Girl. Truly feel blessed.
I wish everyone who wants this and has been waiting will have their dreams come true very soon.
