For mother's

Month 1:

The day comes you find out you're going to be a mother. Its like a lightning bolt across the sky, the fear of being a bad mother, the rain pouring down, which is also tears rolling down your face, the rainbow after the storm, the excitement of becoming a mother, the sound of thunder, the worrisome of every little thing that could possibly go wrong. You know everything will be absolutely fine deep down but its a scary and emotional time, but you smile and know the day was coming and you are filled with joy and love.

Month 2:

The first appointment, you see this little human being you've been growing inside of you. It amazes you that your body is really growing a tiny human, you look at the ultrasound and wonder what does your precious baby look like and you imagine the hair, the facial features, the fingers and toes, what the gender is and think is my baby going to love me as much as I love him or her. The first time seeing your babies face eyes filled with tears and emotions flying inside your head.

Month 3:

Your belly is getting a little bigger, now this precious little human being has began growing and forming his or hers body parts. You are definitely still in shock that you are pregnant, someone says something jokingly and the water works start, you can't control how you feel, you just know that you are feeling a certain type of way and in a dramatic way. You have the most vivid dreams, some are bad mostly because you are worrying about so many things and some you just can't explain.

Month 4:

You're into your second trimester now, this is when you start feeling those little butterflies of movements from your little one he or she is trying out their fingers and toes and stretching and kicking. You don't really have as much nausea as you did but feeling a little pain from your uterus stretching to give your baby more room, your breast are probably a little more sore than they were but you only have 5 months to go.

Month 5:

You are more than half way there!!! You find out you are having a boy. The emotions are running a lot worse then they were. You're excited to tell everyone what you are having, you have a big gender reveal, all of your family is there. You do the suprise and the screaming and crying begins and the hugs and everyone is excited, even daddy. Your son is moving so much more and starts getting a regular sleep pattern and when you are awake into a schedule. Except for when you are trying to sleep he decides he wants to be wide awake.

Month 6:

Now he can can hear sounds, like mommy and daddy talking, and music. His lungs are fully formed so he'll be able to breath and make alot of noise with you both when he gets here. You are still trying to wrap everything up in your head that you are creating someone inside of your body, which is like the ocean. His eyes are like the sky such a beautiful sight not sure of the color yet tho, the sand can be so soft in spots like his skin will be, the birds singing like his precious voice will be once he's here. The clock keeps ticking and we're still going.

Month 7:

Oh boy, hes definitely putting on a little weight now, and so are you mommy. Emotions are probably worse than they were, you are crying about things you normally wouldn't cry over. You are so much more tired then usual, so you try to sleep but your baby boy doesn't want that he loves hearing mommy talk to him and loves feeling her touch her belly to feel him. He can even see light now and its most likely very bright to him right now, he's in a dark, warm comfy place. The days turn into weeks.

Month 8:

Pacing back and forth you go, struggling to get everything together, making sure you have all you need for your baby boy, you even have a name. Everything is falling into place but you are still very stressed and emotional that its coming up so fast, you're also filled with joy because your son will be here and you can finally hold him, bond with him, look at him and raise him into a fantastic gentleman. You know he is going to need you forever now, and always will. The weeks turn Into months.

Month 9:

This is the month where it all happens, your son is gaining alot of his weight this month, hes going to do alot of moving around and twisting and turning. He's trying to get into his position so he can come out and see his mommy and daddy and the world. I think its finally starting to hit you that he's coming and there's no going back now you had your last appointment and you seen his face and he has some hair, and his fingers and toes, you seen him moving on the ultrasound. You have felt him hiccup, and kick. You are probably in some pain on all of your body and most likely you are ready for this month to be over. Its definitely going to fly by momma. The months turn into a beautiful boy.

Birth:

The time has come, after hours of being in labor hes here, he has the most adorable face, a head full of hair. You smell that fresh baby skin, you put him against your skin. Yours and his heart beat are both the same right now. And you are exhausted and very happy at the same time. That moment you see your son is a feeling that no one can explain, it takes every breath that's in you away, you can see so many of yours and his father's features, its unbelievable and everyday for the rest of your life you will still try to figure out how you and him created such a precious little bundle of perfect love. A mother can do so much as too creating, protecting, and carrying a human being inside of their body, not just for a few weeks but for months and I feel like not many give mother's as much credit as they deserve, so I dedicate this book to all mothers, you are all amazing and doing amazing jobs even you feel like you aren't trust me you are.
