Wonders of pregnancy

As you grow, I grow.  Carrying you inside me is the most wonderful thing in the world, but it is also hard work.  I am not that big yet and I already get tired really fast.  I wake up with really bad back pain most mornings.  By the time 3pm hits, my back is already hurting and all I want to do is go home and take a nap.  Every time I try to run, I feel the desperate need to pee, so I can't do that anymore.  Doing the elliptical is becoming harder and harder because of the extra weight in my belly.  The other night I woke up in the middle of the night and fell to the floor because I had this weird pain on my right hip, it was so bad I had to slowly fall.  Your dad woke up and laughed at me (of course, after I said I was ok and he heard me laugh as well).  I had this pain pretty much all day.  These not so wonderful things are just some of examples of what I call...the wonders of pregnancy.  You see my little one...no matter how bad and uncomfortable I may feel, knowing that you are growing inside me, makes all of it Wonderful!  Every time you move all of the pain and discomfort becomes nothing...because all that matters to me is that you are happy and healthy.  I love you more than words can ever explain and I would endure anything just to be with you.  You make me love pregnancy and enjoy every moment of it. 

Love,
Mommy
