My thoughts on pregnancy

Crystal • I need friends... 😂😂

So I’m 13, and I don’t know why, but I’m just fascinated by pregnancy in general. Like, it’s someone growing inside of a woman, and we’re just like, ‘yeah, that’s cool’ but it’s AWESOME! Creating life with your own body is the most amazing thing! (In my opinion) The pregnancy bump at any stage is something to be treasured and adored. So fragile and precious. A life full of capabilities, because who knows what this child will grow up to do? Will they be a doctor? Or on the other side of the spectrum, a criminal? Anywho, back to the pregnancy. I know a lot of women have a hard time loving themselves and their bodies after pregnancy, but dude! You made someone with that body! Be proud of yourself! You worked hard! If you’re not proud, just know that I am! Because you’re body is beautiful, no matter what shape or size.

Now, I know I’m only 13, but I want to be pregnant sooo bad! (Just a disclaimer, I don’t intend on getting pregnant or even having sex any time soon) I know for a lot of women, pregnancy is VERY difficult both mentally and physically, but knowing what you’re doing, the beauty and magic of pregnancy, I feel like it’d be completely worth it. Having someone to love with passion, someone to share everything with, someone who loves you unconditionally... plus, I feel like having someone, even at the darkest stages, with you who loves you for you. Someone who’s comforted by the very beat of your heart, the one who you have been with for those 9 months even if no one else was...

I can’t even IMAGINE having this, and your child being taken away from you too soon... miscarriages run in my family, and twins that are absorbed by the other twin is VERY common in my family, so I’m scared. What if I get pregnant and I lose my precious baby? What if I’m a terrible mother? What if I fall or get hurt? The what if’s are terrifying, but you can’t let them take you over. ...I know I have.

Overall, pregnancy is gorgeous, and love yourself no matter what!! (Please no hate comments!!)
