My NEW Outlook

So....I have decided to gain a new outlook on the next several weeks while still pregnant. The last few days have been hard on me emotionally and physically. I can't seem to get comfortable and I seem to be in pain 90% of the time. I am not complaining...well...I am but I have decided that I will stop today! I have decided that it's part of the process. The absolutely WONDERFUL process of bringing a new person into this world. I wouldn't change this experience for the world, if it means we will meet our healthy daughter at the end. I will look back on my pregnancy and miss so much, I'm convinced. I love to feel her move inside me. It puts a smile on my face each and every time. I love to rub my belly, knowing that one day we will get to know this person so much more. Casey and I are both extremely anxious and excited to meet her and see her. Will she look like me? Will she have his eyes or mine? Will she have red hair? All these things we are coming closer to finding out. We are truly blessed to be able to go through this process. Some are not so fortunate. So..the question remains...why complain?!? I love being pregnant. I love knowing that one day soon we will meet our child, hold her, and love her forever. We can't wait.

I love your outlook and completely agree. Being pregnant is so special but you do reach the point where you just want to meet the special little person you have been waiting for. Hang in there, it will be any time now and she will be so perfect that all the aches, pains, and waiting will be forgotten. Enjoy these last days feeling her movements.
