Hi guys

Hannah • Step mama 💙, baby #1: 3/26/20 Elias Scott Morgan💙, dog lover and wife to an amazing husband

I am writing this post for all the mamas out there who need a little boost. Today I am 37+3. I have been in the hospital since 36+6. I’ve been here on the L&D floor because my mental health got so bad I thought about seriously hurting myself so this baby would be able to come out of me. I love this little boy. I love every little thing about him and with this passed week in the hospital I’ve grown to really get to know his utero quirks. He’s super active on the monitor. He has a slower heart rate but great a-cells. He’s engaged in my pelvis but still sitting very high within my pelvis. He’s a stinker butt and I love him. I miss my family at home. I can’t see my husband or step son because of the COVID-19 visitors policy at this hospital. I probably won’t be able to see him again until I deliver unless they change the rules and make an exception, which the nurses are working very hard on just for me. With all the being said, I’m being induced at 38 weeks. I’m so excited to meet this little guy. But I’m also so excited to get an IUD inserted as soon as I possibly can after his birth. I’m so excited to not ever be pregnant again. I gave it my all. I went through every emotion possible. I did my best, but pregnancy is not for me. I wouldn’t change this journey and process for the world. My point being is if you have a hard pregnancy, please don’t beat yourself up about it. Everyone is different and we should be supporting mamas in every situation. We ultimately are just trying to do our best to bring our little ones into this world safely.
