Need My Glow Girls Right Now

Ok, so as many of you know, I lost my son last June of 2018 at 6 days old. Now I’m 38 weeks pregnant with his little sister. I pray for the day we get to call her our healthy Earth baby. Needless to say, life has just been one emotional roller coaster.

Today, I visited my cousin and her baby. Her MIL comes out and offers me a drink. I tell her no thank you, I have my iced coffee (mind you, my lifesaving 75mg a day, that’s IT). She flips out talking about why am I drinking coffee pregnant? Doesn’t that make the baby hyper? Isn’t this bad? I’m not offended at her lack of education on caffeine while pregnant. What I’m offended about is after all I’ve been through, you have the nerve to degrade and judge my motherhood? I just lost my son, and you think it’s ok to say something like that as if i’d ever jeopardize the health of my, God willing, rainbow baby?

I had to remove myself gracefully from the environment, and remind myself that this is why I don’t go anywhere this pregnancy because of people & comments like that. It’s sad it has to be that way, but it is what it is & I have faith it’ll all be worth dealing with in the end..🙏🏻
