Hi everyone 🙋🏻♀️. Let me first start off with thanking everyone for the constant check ins. ❤️I’m thankful that you’ve already made room in your heart for our little girl and I know you’re anxiously awaiting a call or a text with news of the baby. Since ive been flooded with messages, I Figured I would give everyone a baby update! We had a doctors appointment yesterday and it turns out our little girl is quite comfortable in there. Now trust me, I believe ive tried all the things to get this ball rolling. ☕️Teas, 🌶️foods, bouncing, 🏃🏻♀️walking, 🧗🏻♀️stairs, 💃🏻dancing, 🛀🏻hot baths, you name it. Its been consuming to say the least. Deep down i think we all know we are on her time in the end. She will come when shes ready. And all i want is a healthy happy baby and i am so fortunate that we are both doing well on the charts 🥹🙏🏼. Shes probably wondering why the heck im torturing myself eating dates🤢, spicy foods and doing things to make my body even more uncomfortable than it is 🥵😵💫lol. With all of my efforts being made, I’m sometimes battling my own mind to keep it in the right place. I’m working hard to not let stress be a mode of operation in this very important time. I tend to put a lot of it on myself. thank god for my empathetic, loving and supportive husband for being so wonderful during my not so pretty times of self doubt🥴. Instead of focusing on “how to make this baby come out” or focusing on my due date or the worry of spending Christmas in the hospital, Im going to celebrate the chance to have another day with my family savoring the way we've known life as we prepare for it all to change. I can feel let down by my body for not speeding up the process, 😌or I can feel connected to and grateful for my body for having impeccable timing. ❤️your support and excitement are such a gift, so I don’t take lightly the joy of your involvement. If i dont jump on responding to “where the heck is this baby?!” Texts, just know im busy soaking in these moments and will be letting people know when she makes her appearance when that day comes! Change is coming soon. For today, though, things are just as they should be- im going to celebrate that 💃🏻🕺🏻🎉🥳👏🏼👏🏼🤰🏻. ❤️❤️❤️
