You could write forever and I don’t think it would capture what it feels like to feel your unborn child move. I’ve always wondered what it would be like. It’s one of those cosmic mysteries: the Bible talks about babies leaping for joy in the womb. The first day I felt a little tap-tap-tap flutters was on my birthday, which was sweet of her! It’s hard to believe that there is a little person in there, and that yesterday was my last day counting her kicks on my app.
I am very scared about labor and my friend suggested I read this book called Birth Skills about pain management techniques. I am going into one of life’s most painful experiences as the book suggested, with a two juggling balls and a little bottle of lemon essential oil. That’s totally going to do it, right?
*PS - this will probably be augmented with an epidural.
