Single and Pregnant; The Journey to Happy…

0

There are days when I wake up and wonder  “what the hell just happened to me?” I swear I woke up in the middle of the night with a nice flat tummy and all of a sudden … POW … I’ve got a tummy with no navel!  I guess they say that this is the growing process and there is pretty much nothing you can do.

At this time, thankfully, I’ve discovered a great friend who has found beauty in my growth spurts. I am also beginning to find beauty in it as well. Besides the crazy itching I am actually turning around a little and becoming happy about this baby. I am thinking about names and how he or she will look, and I am also hoping that this baby is not a cry baby. My first baby cried a lot and I have heard that the second one is most of the time different. I often wonder how true that is.

I have also been talking to my mother about this baby. She worries about me because she claims that this child has made me a bit more sensitive and open to hurt.  At this point in my life, maybe mother knows best. We aren’t close, but I guess me being pregnant is her way to come in. I WON’T REJECT IT! (GUESS I AM WAAAY TOO SENSITIVE LOL).

Now as the itching goes … I am surely working on it. I’ve tried many different lotions. My next step at this point is to try almond oil and shea butter. Hope they work!

In the end I am still working on feeling totally beautiful in my new (but temp) body.

Love J. Mar
