I got a little carried away with the recent buzz and it totally slipped my mind that I am nearing the final stage of my pregnancy.
It is great to keep my mind occupied with things other than aches and pains and the long to-do-list for the arrival of the new baby.
On one hand, I am excited about the new baby, on the other hand there are things I wish to accomplish as I know my focus will soon be very much on the new baby.
I remember how my time revolved round Malcolm when he was little. I was a new mother then, I was inexperience, I was not sure and I panicked at his smallest cries.
I like to think that after 5 years of caring for my first born, I am more experience, less panicky and more prepared.
It was during the onset of my 34th weeks, a series of sudden Braxton Hicks contractions, it dawned on me that the baby may arrive ANYTIME, perhaps even too early.
I had a sudden urge to pack, to wash, to arrange
It came so naturally and it felt so powerful
I just couldn’t resist the urge
It was my body’s subtle way of telling me to get ready
and I was reminded to listen to my body
The human body has to be the most amazing and beautiful creation
Undeniably!
The Best Creation ever…
Yes Mommy, anytime now… anytime now…
This is soooooo exciting!!!
