It seems like forever ago we tried for this little bubba and with only 1 month to go until we finally get to meet him the excitement is definitely building!! It has been nearly 5 years since I last carried a tiny little person inside my belly and I must admit that there is so much I seem to have forgotten...
Such as just how sick that tiny little speck can make me in those first few months and just how sore my ribs can be for the last few... and as our little 'Prickles' due date creeps closer I have that impending feeling of doom as the memories of CHILDBIRTH creep back into my mind!!
I guess the good thing is that I also remember that each of my special little ones was worth every ounce of pain I experienced during their delivery and every sleepless night since. I know in my heart that being the mummy is truly the MOST rewarding thing I have ever done... nothing has ever made me feel more proud... of those little people... myself.. and the little family I created!
To be honest I might have exaggerated a little childbirth wasn't all THAT bad ;)
I am sure I made some 'unhuman' sounds as I progressed through the birthing process... and I may have 'lost it' a few times due to the pain I was in... and sure I may have wanted to strangle certain people during the course of my labour but a lot of that pain seemed to be dulled by the pure amazement of bringing a whole human being into this world... that PROUD moment when you realise that that perfect little bundle is here because of you...
