As i shopped today i noticed at least 2 heavily pregnant woman and several babies causing their mothers great stress in the supermarket. As i lay in bed next to my partner, i realise i have the sudden urge to just pounce on him and say "hey... wanna.. ya know." Maybe not those exact words, id be much more desirable than that but you get the picture! I just loved being pregnant. To begin with, it was daunting, terrifying! "Your pregnant." Whooaaaa back up a bit, I'm pregnant? It doesn't really hit home until you get that first ultrasound does it? Until then, it doesn't really feel real. Then wah-la! After sitting in the waiting room very apprehensive for 5, 10, 15 maybe 20 minutes (which feels like hours) with a full bladder, desperately needing to pee you enter a small confined room, you lay on a small narrow bed, get jelly smeared all over your tummy and proceed to be jabbed with a should i say wand like thing until the doc can get a clear shot of your.. peanut. At 6 weeks, that is all it looks like.. a little peanut. I remember being in disbelief, thinking is that it? Until i heard its little heart beat. As soon as i heard that, i knew everything was real. What was growing inside me was real. The changes my body was experience, real. From that point on, after hearing its little heart beating away ever so fast, i loved my baby unconditionally.

Ah.. to be up the duff again
Is it just me or after you have your first child do you notice babies/pregnant woman everywhere you go?

What are you looking at!?
It felt like a thousand eyes were on me the first time going out publicly with my newborn Elijah.
Being only 19 and also looking quite young i suppose it was the opportune moment to judge.
Even with a man on my arm and his ring on my finger, people still looked at me like i was taboo.
Especially the individuals from the older gens, i mean no disrespect but seriously if you keep that ugly stare long enough the wind will change and you'll be stuck like that!
6 months on and i still notice the stares.

Some people really are just so judgemental!
