I know some people who just LOVE to be pregnant. It is like some fun ride...let me just tell you, I am NOT one of those people. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the babies, the toddler, (and I'm sure I will love them as they continue to grow!) and the joy they bring. I know it is a huge blessing to be able to be pregnant, to be able to bear children. But just for a second, let me be selfish and tell you...
I do not like...
-the back pain
-the overwhelming feeling of exhaustion
-the swelling
-not being able to run
-feeling so unattractive
-the nausea and vomiting
-all the "don'ts"
BUT, like I said, I know it is a huge blessing, and a huge honor that God would allow us bring new life into this world, and I truly do love that! It is worth it! Without a doubt...
All of that being said, almost 31 weeks down! MAX 9 to go! =)
Sorry for the complaining...
Blessings,
M
Madeline! I love the name of your boys. I always thought Caleb was just adorable, and now, Jonah!! What a strong name. I love that we can keep up with each other through blogs. I hope all is well with your beautiful family; and know that you are in my prayers as you finish these 9 weeks!
