17 September 2011 - 6 months

♥ 6 months ago today I held my baby girl in my arms for the first time. 6 months ago today, I saw her beautiful face for the first time and told her how much I loved her. 6 months ago today I watched my baby take her first and last breaths and knew that it was all worth it! Even if all we got was 10 minutes with her, it was worth it! My lovely Lily, I will love you forever, I will like you for always. As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be. ♥

So if you didn't guess it... I AM PREGNANT! We are extremely excited by this! To say the least! The baby is due to exit the womb in May... yip, ANOTHER May baby! May is very popular in my family! 

I am only 4 weeks 3 days ish pregnant... Still very early, and yes, again we have decided to tell people early... no waiting for 12 weeks for us! We did the same when I was pregnant with Lily and don't regret it at all! We are celebrating our bubba right from day 1! And part of this is again sharing it with the world! What is the point in waiting for 12 weeks? Yeah sure at 12 weeks the risk of miscarriage decreases, but we know that that doesn't mean everything is going to be perfect anyway! So let's celebrate!

I must admit though, while it is extremely exciting!!!, it is also a little scary, there is this fear, worry that something might go wrong! I didn't have this feeling at the beginning of my last pregnancy... every little, tiny twinge, funny feeling... it scares me... I want to do EVERYTHING right, even though they say there was nothing I could have done to change Lily's outcome, I still want to do whatever I can to have it different this time! Pressure!

But you know what? It's exciting! We are celebrating and enjoying every second of it... even this extreme tiredness and these really freaky dreams that are keeping me awake at night! And these dreams have nothing to do with babies/pregnancy or anything relevant! They are about silly things like being drugged by Michael Jackson and being made to dance to Thriller... the scary part was actually having him hunt me down to hurt me... but yeah, some very random but very vivid dreams that I am not enjoying! 

And I am only 4 weeks 3 days... there is a LOOOONG way to go yet!!

So that's it! I am PREGNANT and very excited about it! But I am now heading to bed... :)
