But, it's a pretty momentous day for our little family. I know that I was always doubting that I'd EVER see a due date, let alone be this close to reaching it. Yes, I was pretty pessimistic about the possibility of being a mother. I just figured that since my body was working against me all those years, and it wasn't very likely to change.
Luckily, I had my wonderful husband, an amazing family, and exceptional friends who helped me to find the positive, stay focused on the goal, and support us as we attempted to conceive a child.
And it happened.
We did it. We conceived.
We made it past the first trimester, where the threat of a miscarriage was highest.
We made it the 27 weeks or so that is considered the "point of viability" in which the baby could survive if born early.
We made it within a month of the due date.
On Tuesday of this upcoming week, I'll be considered "full-term" in this pregnancy.
Then, it's just a matter of waiting for that day to arrive in which our little miracle decides he's ready to come on out and face the world. I'm nervous, a little scared, but excited beyond belief.
It's truly a miracle!
Congratultations on your pregnancy, I can only imagine how amazing it must feel. I look forward to coming back here in a month or so to learn that you've given birth! Good luck with everything.
