Best dad/hubby ever

During my pregnancy there have been some moments where I get really scared. Like once I slipped down the stairs around 20 weeks and my husband caught me at the bottom of the steps. He is really good at pretending he’s not scared so that I calm down quickly, even though I know he is just as scared. (Everything of course was fine)

Today I realized how thankful I was for that quality. I went in for an ultrasound and found out our baby was breech at 38 weeks and the chances of him flipping are slim. And yes, I know, me and the baby will be fine. But it was scary to realize that what we thought was going to happen was not the reality ahead of us. So as a ftm I got scared. The doctor left the room after talking to us about scheduling a c-section and I said “I’m scared” and started to cry a little bit. I could really tell that him seeing me scared broke his heart. But he is so sweet and helped me calm down, even though I knew he was scared too.

And then once we got to the car I started crying again, and he got that same look on his face but held it together so that he could make sure I was okay. I don’t even understand how he does it.

I just wanted to brag on him for a little bit, he deserves it. I’m thankful for someone who doesn’t invalidate my fears, and knows exactly how to snap my brain back into reality. I can’t wait to see my favorite thing about him in action with our kids. 💛
