Brave

Am dreading my Labor day. It just occurred to me that in order to be a mommy, I need to have a baby and in order to produce a baby It doesn't just start and stop at pregnancy, I have in fact have to push a baby when the time comes. Suddenly am afraid. Suddenly I wanted to stay pregnant forever. Suddenly am a chicken. Suddenly days are passing like a flash. Everything seem so fast. 

I know am strong. Like each time i visit my dermatologist to have that annoying pimple injection from time to time - It is always painful. No matter how many times it done on me, it is always painful. My hands would sweat, my armpit sweats too, my body temperature rises, and involuntary tears striking down my face. But I always come out alive and swearing not to do that again. 

So right now that's my motivation. Labor is just like pimple injection, only one million times painful....I think am gonna die. 

Is there a mommy out there? please convince me that if you can do it, I can do it too.

The baby is God's gift to you. He believes you can deliver that baby and so you will. Just think about the baby and you'll realize that you're braver than you imagine. :)

I'll pray for you..

Hi Denise,

I just came back to work after my maternity leave. And it meant being ex-communicado for more than two months (I gave birth via CS). Sorry I never got the chance to return your comment.

I know how you are feeling. Been there. I'm sure every mom-to-be has to go through all the flooding of emotions. I was scared like hell when I reached my third trimester. But being afraid and nervous are valid feelings. Just stay healthy!

What I actually did was sign up for a birthing class and that made me less fretful. It's sort of calming when you know what to do when you have episodes of heartburn, or when your face and feet swells like they're gonna burst, or when you feel like vomiting at yourself at the smell of something irritating. But mostly it's reassuring to know that you can learn what you need to when the D-Day comes. Of course you ask for tips from dear mom but if you're interested in a birthing class, try chiqui brosas hahn's class. I never get to practice what I learned in her class because I was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia and had to deliver earlier than scheduled via CS. That was a bummer because I preapred for a normal birth. But its a different feeling when you are "armed" with facts and knowledge. It somehow makes birthing magical rathen than a scary experience, CS or normal.

Enjoy being pregnant! You'll miss your beautiful bump when baby is finally out. And have your hubby beside you always. your partner's presence will always give you that extra boost of confidence and braveness.


xoxo

I'm not a mother, but I KNOW you can do this x

Aww sorry to hear your having those feelings. Im sure when I have a bub one day I will be terrified of the pain too. But like you said, once the baby is out hopefully you will soon forget it.
Your still looking beautiful in that pretty outfit.

Hello. Your fears are understandable. We all want to avoid pain and unpleasantness. As a mom of six, the strength and ability WILL be there, WHEN you need it, and not months, weeks, or a moment before. Stop worrying, and enjoy your pregnancy!
