Wanted Pregnancy

Congratulations on getting pregnant. Is your baby licking your belly with joy? They say it is the most rewarding experience any woman can enjoy. If a baby can hear everything inside the belly then I’m pretty sure their first words are going to be “It’s just too hot!”. 

Mouths don’t get pregnant. Pregnancy is the happiest reason ever for feeling like crap. There’s something empowering about going, “Hell I can do this! I can do this all”. That’s the wonderful thing about mothers, you can do because you must, and you just DO. 

Pregnancy is in the air! Everyone is announcing that they’re pregnant, including some men. The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. 

Think of stretch marks as pregnancy service stripes. Imagine not fully wrapping your head around the fact that there would be a person at the end of it. You read endlessly about pregnancy and what or what not to eat. And then you’re sort of not prepared for the actual baby. 

During pregnancy, dropping something on the floor means deciding if it’s worth never seeing it again. Bending down becomes an extreme sport. Waiting for the baby is like picking someone from the airport but you don’t know who they are or what time their flight arrives. 

There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world, it is better than bombing one out of it. Months have an average of 30 days, except the 9th month of pregnancy which lasts about 1,000 days. Welcome to the beginning of the end of your life. 

Congratulations on your pregnancy!
