The Wee One

 A couple weeks back I went to the doctor. I was so nervous leading up to the appointment. In fact, I had convinced myself I was not pregnant, just fat. So when in fact, he pulled up the ultrasound (which they do at EVERY appointment...SCORE!) I was more in shock than anything. I wish I could say a RUSH of emotion over came me...that I was suddenly so happy, and in love. But in fact, it was more like, "wow, this is real, we have another one coming" and then suddenly I felt so guilty. Like I was in some way, ruining Lincoln's childhood by having another baby. It was the most odd feeling I have ever had. Most of my friends tell me they felt the same way, not sure how to feel about the new baby, not sure how to work around the schedules, etc, until they held them...then it all went away and everything fell into place...lets hope so!

Also, can you imagine this HUGE play structure INSIDE the waiting room at my doctors office!? They also don't call you by name there, for privacy reasons. They give you a buzzer (like at a restaurant) OR you can have them text you...so fancy! I am in LOVE with the place, and so thankful for a friend who told me about it. Also, the hospital I am delivering at has Jacuzzi tubs in every room, all private rooms, and the best food around...YES!

  1. I feel like I have more to say about this post then you put in the post itself, ha!
    First, I felt the same way about having #2. I was sure I'd ruin Ellie's life. I cried in fear that she would feel less loved. I was so wrong. Ellie and Alaina love each other and I love each of them equaly (which I also thought was impossible). Now I can't imagine life without either of them.
    Secondly, I was always afraid I wasn't pregnant too! I can relate to the relief of the Ultra sound. Glad I'm not alone :)
    Lastly, I am jealous of your doctor's office. My OB office told me I should have found a babysitter. Like I'd bring my kid to the doctor if I had any other choice.... Seriously! That and Ellie is angelic so it's not like she was in anyway annoying.

    Phew. That is all. :)
