I was just waiting for the new playroom to be posted. It's so surreal. Sometimes I forget it all happened. Then Carie makes a sound...
Carie was conceived around the end of July and I found out early August. I make a trip to NY to our cottage at least every Labor Day weekend and that's when it will hit me this year. (Last year I was up there end of July and early August too, obviously) When I was at the cottage earlier in May with Carie it was very sentimental to know that she was conceived there and that I will be passing it down to her. It's a cottage my grandfather built and my brother and I co-own it right now. It's our legacy and Carie is the first grandchild, so it was very emotional.
It's times like these that I get really emotional about it all. I didn't really have an easy pregnancy and I am so blessed with a "good" baby. It wasn't until yesterday that I even entertained the idea of possibly trying again in about 2 years. I'm no "spring chicken" and my high blood pressure makes things high risk, but I'm with all of you.......even though we complained through it all, I do miss being preggo in many ways. Feeling her inside me, the maternal feeling, the dreams, oh and all the body changes..some good, some I'm glad are gone.
Funny, today was the first time I splurged(read: cheated!) and had an oreo cookies and cream milkshake. Something I found and craved while pregnant. Somehow it wasn't quite as "good" as I remember...still worth the cheat though.
Sorry ladies...I tend to get longwinded when sentimental....
Ah...I am so looking forward to finding an April 2008 DDC buddy....count me in!
