While in the throes of infertility, I'd look at pregnant women and have to stifle thoughts of anger and jealousy.
When I became pregnant, I felt a strong but different emotion when looking at pregnant women--fear. I looked at their bellies, round and beautiful, and I'd fear that mine would remain small, that I wouldn't make it to the point of showing.
But lately when I look at pregnant women I feel confident, confident that I'm going to have this baby, confident that she's OK. I'm 28 weeks today; even if my baby were born today, she'd have more than a fighting chance. I believe in my baby. I love her.
Next week we have an ultrasound to confirm that the choroid plexus cyst is gone. After the ultrasound, we'll assemble the crib and dresser, so today I'm tasking myself with cleaning and organizing the nursery in preparation.
I'm glad that you're feeling more confident! I hope that you get that good news at the u/s!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the ultrasound! I still am in the disbelief stage. I hope to be feeling like you soon.
