I’m an emotional person to begin with, just ask my husband. I cry very easily, it’s kinda funny. But now that I’m pregnant again, gosh let the flood works begin! Doesn’t take much, a sappy billboard, a Hallmark commercial….and this blog. Joy’s Hope. I found this gal’s blog via another blog I follow, Styleberry. I started looking around because I was curious how she came up with the blog name.
I was reading the Joy’s Story section when the waterworks began. You can read it too HERE if you dare. She lost her full term baby, I can’t imagine. Thankfully she has God in her life. I can’t imagine going through a traumatic event like this on your own.
This baby that I’m carrying right now doesn’t move near as much as my girls did. That is totally fine because maybe this baby is a little more laid back than my girls. And the Good Lord knows I would be completely happy with that!! 🙂 But isn’t it just so reassuring when you feel your sweet baby move. It reassures us “control freaks” that all is ok. That is the only thing I dislike about being pregnant, not knowing what’s going on in there. My tummy just needs a little window, so the control freak in me can see what’s going on.
I CAN’T WAIT until March 7th when I get to see my baby for the first time. Just over a week away! That is our ultrasound date.
I have been hearing so much lately about women who are losing their babies, both in first trimester as well as full term. I feel for these women and can’t imagine the sorrow they must be feeling. From the instant I have known about being pregnant, I can’t help but instantly love my sweet baby that God has blessed me with. I just pray with all my heart that I NEVER have to experience what some of my friends and other women have experienced, the loss of a baby I have never met…
