RE: It was all going so well...until it wasn't...
Hmmm hmmm... I am not passed the stage of hospital bracelets, greeting cards, and pee stick. But I bet you'll feel a lot lighter now that you've reduced the load. xo Aimee
So you kept your pee sticks too? That makes me feel better about the potential gross part haha
The cards were hard at first, but we have kept a box of letters written from family.
Affirmative. I definitely have a slightly gross pee stick. I only took one and there was no doubt it was positive. I think, because I was carrying twins my pregnancy hormones were sky high early. Ha ha ha!
Letters are good. That's why I have so many cards, because people write such beautiful messages. It's hard to let that go. I also like to have peoples handwriting. It's like having a little piece of them with me. -Aimee
Haha you had double the hormones! We always took two! Ya know...great news has to be doubled checked! hahaha I remember calling the dr. right away with the first and I was shocked they wanted wait until I was 8 weeks (I think) to see me. I was expecting them to rush me in and run tests! Hahaha They were excited for me...about as excited as you can muster when that is your job, but there was no medical emegency like I had built up in my head.
I really love handwriting also! It does feel like a piece of them...no one has the same handwriting.
Ah ha ha! I know the feeling of wanting to make the pregnancy "official" as if growing a tiny human inside you isn't official enough, right? Here in Alberta there is limited funding for midwives so I was told if I wanted one I had to apply as soon as that I saw that pink line. I also made an appointment with my doctor to "confirm" the pregnancy. It all seems so silly now, but a funny memory none the less. -Aimee
Haha right? I always wonder how differently our pregnancy's would like now. Our focus is way more holistic...so I can see us with a midwife now!
