Baby, since we found out about you outwardly everything is the same, but somehow, everything in our world is different. I brush my teeth and think “we’re having a baby”, I walk the dog and think “I am pregnant”, and I keep doing this all day every day throughout everything I do. The other day I went to Walgreens to buy dental floss and I found myself grinning at the clerk from ear to ear. It was the same clerk that checked me out a few weeks earlier when I bought nearly every pregnancy test in the store. I felt like hugging her and shouting “we did it! It all worked out!”, but I got the distinct sense she would not have been amused.
When I was in the doctor’s office for blood work I noticed that the receptionist and I were the only ones not sporting big ole’ bellies. I liked being there surrounded by all that roundness. It reminded me of being in Thailand and seeing the happy Buddha’s all over with their big round bellies. I mean, what could ever be better than a room full of happy, fat pregnant women?
