Interesting how this new phase in my life can make me sit still for hours on end, just pondering the wonder that is inside me.
My baby has been a hyperactive bundle. He kicks, somersaults, stretches... he coughs and hiccups. By this time, he can swallow already. He is fully formed and can feel pain. He reacts to the environment around him, despite being inside my womb. He knows my voice.
And now, after months of trying to come to terms with the notion of being a mom, I can say this truthfully: Having a baby is a blessing, no matter what the circumstance may be.

You will never know abject and complete terror until you hold your child. And you will never know such level of fierce and complete love until you hold your child for the first time. At least thats what I heard :-)
I wish you all the love in this world Addie, your kid will grow up to be a beautiful person like you.
Warm Regards,
Lau
I stumbled on your blog by accident. After reading and knowing what you're going through right now, I felt betrayed. . . (or what is a better word for that?) feelings of a mom who knew nothing. :( Nevertheless, I hope you well, good health and joy.
I hope you can get in touch with me, still. I'm home already.
I miss you.
