I'm extremely anxious and getting impatient. It needs to be next week already so we can find out what we are having lol.. I have to admit waiting is the hardest part about being pregnant but at the same time the wait is necessary.

A couple of weeks ago, even though I knew I was pregnant I don't think I had fully grasped the concept. Now that I've been feeling the Baby more often I think it's finally hit me. Having a son or daughter means you are now responsible for another life. A lot of people take their own lives for granted so imagine how nerve-wracking it is to realize that you will soon be responsible for someone else's. Sounds a bit traumatizing lol. That is why this time is so important.

During pregnancy you get to bond with your Baby even though you can't look him/her in the eyes. You realize that inside of you is a wonderful little person waiting to meet you and love you. You start wondering how much your life will change and you welcome that change. And even though you might be scared out of your mind, because you know that what you do from now on will impact that Baby's life forever, you realize it's not that bad. Being a parent is a blessing and you are reminded of that with every little movement, every symptom (lol), every thought of your new life. It's an exciting journey and although at times I've thought "I'm not ready for this", I know I am.

Anyway. Enough with the insightful, philosophical stuff lol. I've been feeling more movement lately. Mostly at night. Omar's been trying to feel it too but I'm not sure he knows what to look for. I like when he does that. I don't know, I guess it makes me feel how excited he is and how much he cares.

Whoops! Let's not get mushy. So yea like I said I can't wait til next week!! lol
