Just a Thought

Whenever I log onto Facebook, all I see are women who are pregnant. (No, really, I have a total of 12 people that I can think of off the top of my head who are expecting on my friends list.) Then there are those who aren't pregnant but have serious baby fever and want to join the maternity club. To all my friends who want to be pregnant and want to start a family, don't take that feeling of longing for granted. The feeling of wanting so much to have your first baby is a special feeling that you will never have again. Yes, I'm sure the second baby is amazing as well, but so is the excitement of planning for that first little one.

It is the first time you are thinking of having a baby, the first time talking with your significant other about starting a family, the first time you have to venture to the drug store to buy a HPT, the first time getting nervous about actually taking that test, the first time of being let down when only 1 line appears in that little window, the first time finally seeing those 2 pink lines that tell you that you are indeed pregnant, the first time announcing to your SO that in 9 short months he will be a father and you a mother, the first time announcing to your family that they are going to be grandmas, grandpas, aunts, and uncles, the first time sending your SO to the store again for more tests just to make sure it wasn't a fluke, and the first time experiencing all those little moments of your baby growing inside you.

That first time baby feeling of longing is quick, but definitely something to hold on to while you wait to start your family. It is such an exciting time in life to be at that stage when a sweet little baby is all you can think about!
