Pregnancy and childbirth are amazing, wonderful, miraculous, and life-changing. Throughout both I had duel emotions at all times. I was nervous about all of the many possible complications yet, confident in my body's ability. I was excited for motherhood, but worried about sooo many things that I could not control (blame the hormones!)
Here are five things I never knew about this experience:
1) Every pain, twitch, movement (or lack of) will send you sprinting for Google. I can't count how many times I looked up, "Is _____ normal at 22 (23) (24) weeks...
2) Nesting really is no joke, I cleaned my baseboards (multiple times) for goodness sakes!!
3) Your husband will amaze you; it must be the scariest thing he will ever go through and he will be calm, cool, and collected.
4) When IT is happening....TRUST ME...the last thing on your mind is how many people are up close and staring at your lady parts!! You are in the zone!
5) You will never feel more complete and in love than when they place that little person on your chest...
