And Baby Makes Three
“Is that my baby?”
I swear, my nose gets stuffy so fast, I was breathing out my mouth.
“Yes ma’am. That’s the sac, the little circle is where your baby is getting the nutrients. See that thread-like thing? That’s a tiny umbilical cord and the little pulsing thing at the bottom is your baby.”
I wasn’t full on crying,
I was holding it in for dignity’s sake but I did get a headache from trying to tamp down the waterworks. The monitor was getting blurry so I think I pretty much leaked enough.
She said we’d get copies, like snapshots of the bean.
It was just simply incredible. Ginormous.
I know its so cliché but I never felt such a deep-down kind of joy. I’m sure the technician sees things like this everyday so I hope she hasn’t grown numb being witness to the miracle of life. It’s simply awesome to be part of The Moment.
Mr. F and me plus the little bean….our little sprout.
We were going to be a family.

Congratulations Laya on being a mother and taking steps to parenthood. Am sure you will treasure and cherish these steps of motherhood. You need to take extra care of yourself too.
Chief and I had our little share of parenthood but lost CG along the way. But we continue to try.
Cheers.

Hello! Your blog was passed on to me Yas. :)
I know that feeling of suddenly becoming three. We had our baby girl in July last year. Time has gone so fast! Looking at her now, I still cant believe she used to be a tiny little squirt!
How did your husband react at the sight of the little bean? My husband blurted that she looked like Homer Simpson. :P
hi beth! our bean makes her appearance august of last year. watch out for that story sometime in the future on this blog :D LOL sounds like a plug for a television episode!
anyhoo, when my hubby saw th eultrasound, he was too embarassed to bawl, but he was close to it! he blurted out she looked like a peanut! he was speechless at first tho! when she came out, he was also speechless and everything happened too fast for him to emote (or so he says. i think he was just embarassed!) hehe! :)
