everyone keeps saying to me that i must be so glad that i'm not going to be pregnant anymore soon and that i must be so impatient to get the baby out and i'm not even 40 weeks yet. all the women i talk to say they hated being pregnant and couldn't wait to get the baby out. i keep hearing the phrase "9 months of hell" and i can't really relate. i'm just feeling like an oddball because i don't mind being pregnant at all. in fact, i think i'm going to miss it when i'm not anymore. don't get me wrong, i can't wait to have my little baby, but i don't mind waiting until he or she is ready to come out. maybe this will change when i get closer to (and maybe beyond) 40 weeks. i'm sure some of you are rolling your eyes and thinking "oh just you wait" lol. but i almost feel bad for not feeling bad, you know? maybe part of it is that i'm a little bit scared of being a mom and having to share my baby with the world. it's so much easier sheltering and protecting your baby when they are all safe in your tummy i guess. or maybe i've just waited so long for this to happen and i'm so happy that it's happening with the love of my life that i want to savour every single second of it. i dunno.
i just needed to share that with anyone. i'm a little hormonal i guess and feeling all sentimental. i just know that it's all going to go by so fast and before i know it my little one will be all grown up and i won't be the most important person in their life like i am now. i'm sure others must feel kinda similar, otherwise we wouldn't ever get pregnant again i suppose.
