Yes, certain discomfort comes with the deal for all pregnant women, but most mothers would agree that the result is worth a few months of slighter aches and pains. Even the sometimes overwhelming challenge of birthing.
So whenever I feel something about the pregnancy being too overwhelming, I tell myself: ‘KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRICE!’
Dear child,
I keep my eyes on you.
As with any building, a solid foundation is – per definition – fundamental.
Rationally I understand that the Wonder globe has to have something that it can attach to around my waist. It can’t just sit there on the front, like a football caught under my skin. Therefore I see my waist grow. Emotionally if find it challenging to try on pair after pair of trousers, just to see that they don’t fit anymore. Style wise this is becoming a minor catastrophe. But with the help of a hair band I can get my trousers to fit a little longer.
Dear child,
Never mind my silly thoughts about my waist size. Build as much of a solid foundation as you need in order to travel safely with me through these nine months.
