First Time for Everything... Pregnancy

There’s always a first time for everything… First kiss, first love, first time you have sex, first wedding, first pregnancy, first baby and so many more firsts.

Today, I’m talking about first pregnancy and first baby.

Yes, life gets even harder once you find out and realize you are pregnant. The realization that you are pregnant hits you hard like a semi-truck hitting a car in a car accident.  Maybe you find out because you miss your period, you take a test or you have symptoms. No matter what TAKE A PREGNANCY TEST!

Some women take the road where they can’t deal with a child in their lives and get an abortion… This is sad, but understandable. Some women take the road where they want to give life to someone who cannot have kids and they decide to give their baby up for adoption… Which I find it sad, but also encouraging and inspiring.

Then of course there are the women who go through all the crazy hormones and cravings to have a child… I find it amazing and maybe it’s because I am a mom, but when you see that life when you have your first ultra sound you realize how happy you are. Maybe there’s just smiling and maybe there’s happy tears. Yes, it’s going to be a stressful and bumpy ride, but it’s the realization of bringing a new life into the world that makes it all the more worth everything.

I love being a mom!
