Let’s be honest, however you have child it is an amazing experience. My experience started with a hellish pregnancy. Despite all the terrible side effects, there was a silver lining: some really amazing experiences throughout pregnancy. The best part about pregnancy is knowing that all the bad stuff- the sickness, the heart burn, the aches and pains- doesn’t last. In the end (I promise) it will all be worth it.
Reason #1: The Excitement
Knowing you are having a child is such a whirlwind of emotions: terrifying, but also super exciting. I was lucky enough to have a super supportive family close by, and everyone was thrilled! It was so much fun imagining all the possibilities- thinking about names, painting the baby room, thinking about what the baby would look like. Buying things for a newborn is so much fun.
