On a Sunday the first weekend in Feb I found out I was pregnant. It was not planned nor was she conceived with someone I knew for very long. Initial symptom, ANXIETY! It wasn't one of those, "How did this happen?" because I knew how it happened. It was, "What to do now?"
Lets jump to today. I am 34 weeks happily pregnant with a beautiful baby girl that weighs somewhere around 5 lb's 4 oz's. I have spent the last 34 weeks making sure I follow every guideline to a T. Everything from 6-8, 8 oz. glasses of water a day, followed by prenatal vitamins, taking in extra calories, smothering myself in cocoa butter & nearly running through a million shirts from sweat. Would I ever wish anything were different? Absolutely NOT! Getting pregnant is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I cannot say the situation is ideal, but I am a strong smart woman with a loving supporting family that will raise this little girl to be all that she can be and more. I have a feeling the next 6 weeks might be the longest 6 weeks of my life. I guess I can wait a few more to hold her when I've already waited 34.
Up to this day I have traveled the states, graduated from high school, actively in college, participated in numerous sports, modeling so on and so forth, but the most rewarwing has been getting pregnant. Anyone can do the things I have done if they really want it, but not everyone is blessed to bring a child into the world.
Hadlee Alexus, finding out I was pregnant truly was the defining moment in my life. I love you my precious little girl.
So I ask you, " What has been the thing that defines your life?"
