I thought I would write a post all about everything I've loved during my pregnancy. Becoming pregnant has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. Nurturing this life inside me has been a life changing experience and one I have enjoyed thoroughly. It's almost sad that it will shortly be coming to the end but I will then have my baby then, at long last.
Firstly of course I love my boy. I love the thought of him being in my belly, the thought that I am never alone. He is always with me wherever I go and his big kicks are a reminder that he's strong and well. Words can't express how much love I feel for him already and I can't even comprehend how I will feel when I lay eyes on him for the first time. It brings tears to my eyes imagining it and I get goosebumps. I already have this super protective maternal instinct over him and I can't wait for it to develop and grow.
My bump, I have been bump obsessed. Watching my bump get bigger and bigger week by week has been incredible. The stretch marks as unsightly as they look are and will always be a constant reminder of carrying him and I am already proud of them. I know for a fact that once he is here I will miss my bump so much. I find so much comfort from giving it a rub and totally used to it being there now. I will miss his little wriggles. When I first wake up in the morning and he is nice and still if I begin to talk he will move around in response. When you feel your baby move inside you it's a magical indescribable feeling.
I love how pregnancy has brought Nick and I even closer. The countless hours we've spent talking about the life we've created and about our future as a family. About our hopes and dreams for our son and what values we want him to have. It is the biggest, most exciting period of our lives and we can't wait to be a family.
The crazy dreams. I have given up watching films as I may as well sleep as my dreams are so much more entertaining. From playing domino's in the big brother house, to giving birth to kittens there is never a dull moment in my mind at bed time.
The excuse to eat whatever I fancy. Waking up at 2am and eating cake then thinking well I am eating for two! I will really miss using that excuse. I don't think my scales will miss it though as I must of put on at least two stone during the pregnancy.
I probably could go for another hour but I will end it here. As you can see I have enjoyed every second of my pregnancy and really looking forward to the next chapter!

ReplyDeleteI am not broody at all though as my little man is having a really rough time with his teeth and has done a lot of screaming the last few days :(
Enjoy the last few weeks of your pregnancy, it will be over before you know it xx

This is a lovely post. You look beautiful - pregnancy clearly suits you! I was the opposite, I'm afraid. I have 3 gorgeous girls, but man oh man, pregnancy just does not become me! You look amazing, enjoy every minute of being pregnant it goes so fast.
ReplyDeleteYes, actually I do miss the little kicks! x :)
Ahh thank you so much. I don't feel pretty! I think I have put on a good two stone but he is so so worth it. Going to enjoy these last few weeks. x
DeleteAll the best!! Lovely post and I wish you and your family all the happiness in the world!

ReplyDeleteI hated having a great big bump when I had Stacey, but loved being pregnant and showing off my growing tum with Oscar! Strange how these things affect us isn't it?
I would like to wish you and your little family all the good health, love and happiness in the world. And enjoy every minute with baby chic geek as they grow up way too fast.
