Last one- sadness

Susan

This is #3 for us. I tend to have pretty scary complications, and have been on bed rest with this pregnancy. Non-related fact: I’m older (38). Even if I were younger, my body couldn’t handle another pregnancy bc of my complications. Now 31 weeks along, and I’m starting to feel sadness that this is it. After she’s born I’ll never again feel those precious kicks & jabs, and watch my belly roll around while the rest of the family is watching tv. Sweet little hiccups jolting my insides. The happiness I feel cradling my baby bump & proudly sporting it. The thrill of giving birth and feeling that tiny body placed on my chest. This is it. Never again. And it’s making me sad.
