Joys of pregnancy!

Wednesday, March 12, 2008

One of the best times is my life was when I was pregnant. I loved every minute of the 9 months from the moment we discovered we were expecting. I saw my doctor frequently after finding out early that I was carrying twins and enjoyed the blessing of seeing my twins with a monthly ultrasound, sometimes twice a month. Expecting mother's of multiples tend to suffer from EXREME morning sickness...I had no signs aside from a serious adversion for meat and chicken and severe exhaustion. As the pregnancy went on I developed an uncontrollable food craving...fresh produce was my food of choice and continuously in large portions. My produce bill ranged $30-$40 a week and the fruits and veggies were often absent within 4 days of buying it.

When I think back to my pregnancy, I think one of my fondest memory is feeling complete with my body. As a woman, we tend to only see our bodies as imperfect and always wanting to look better. While I was pregnant, I had reached the level where I had finally achieved perfection.

Pregnancy...it is an amazing gift given from God and truly a miracle. There is nothing more beautiful than a pregnant woman. Now here I am again, getting the pregnancy itch.
