I get it, our bodies are completely changed from a child. Whether stretch marks, dislocated ribs, I mean seriously the list goes on. It's so easy to focus on all the negativeness of pregnancy when it feels like it's taking over our lives. I was so easily pulled into this mind set during my first trimester.... I mean who wouldn't when you're throwing up not just in the morning, but the ENTIRE day. It's so easy to say to your husband "I wish you had to experience what I am going through!" Or "What the heck Eve!" Honestly though I knew I couldn't live that way for nine months; I started changing my mind set.
Learn how to laugh at the fact that you can no longer control the fact that you will fart unexpectedly..... And yes this happens... Sometimes in public.
Or the fact that you can change bra sizes within a week. There are so many silly things that happen with our bodies. Truly though at the end of the day we are blessed.
Blessed? Yes blessed. We get to experience our child before they arrive. Our husbands cannot truly experience this. We grow a deep relationship with someone we haven't held in our arms yet. That is absolutely amazing if you ask me. Stop focusing on the negative and focus on the light in being able to grow a human.
Thank you lord for choosing me to grow your child. I pray that they grow to be just like you.
