Every month has around 30-31 days, except the last month of pregnancy which had about 365 days.
9 months of making this little one,no way out and no way back; the truth is as frightful as it is beautiful, as exhausting as it is exciting and as traumatic as it is euphoric…………….
During my first trimester I made friendship with toilet commode by throwing up all day due to this morning sickness. I wanted to meet that blockhead person who decided to name it morning sickness; should not it be call anytime sickness?
Days went by in hangover without having alcohol, I used to be exhausted, tired and napping whole day. Had minor complication due to excessive travel in 1st trimester but the moment i heard first heartbeat i was elated and nervous by knowing the fact that my life is very fragile and important for someone to grow safely inside me.
Not everyday of pregnancy is easy, yet my 2nd trimester was easy-peasy with full of “Momneasia” – lately my brain is like Bermuda Triangle….. Information goes in and then it’s never found again, can someone help me locating my lost brain?
Along with my brain, my other parts/organs are also gradually disappearing – all my organs are moved from their actual places, abs are screaming, bladder falls off by 10X, belly button is R.I.P. and thanks to my lean frame I could see my big baby bump towards the end of 2nd trimester.
With all this, I said goodbye to my feet and said hello to the 3rd trimester – A phase of growing, glowing, and wearying.
If I ignore backache, constant kicking of baby, peeing in every 20mins, aching feet, stretch marks, moodiness, and spending most of the time either lying or trying to sleep with millions of pillows; Oh! then I am just glowing with lovely skin and fabulous thick hair.
Pregnancy is not easy extra emotions, fatigue, difficulty in finding a comfortable position to sleep. I was like please leave me alone, I have had a busy day being pregnant and need to do it again all over again.
I am not telling you all this to scare you, I am telling you that it’s going to be worth it. The change that your body goes through while being pregnant are beautiful, yet they can also be daunting. As your body changes it is easy to feel fat or uncomfortable in your own skin, however when your holding your precious little one in your arms all this makes worthwhile.
It was exciting to meet this little one who is half me and half the one i love!
