I was laying here this evening wondering if I should allow myself to doze off and thinking about what to write tonight. I started thinking about how happy I am. Really and truly happy. I was thinking about how much I love this baby already. It's a bigger love than I've ever felt before. Already and it's still so small and inside me. Well, there I was dozy and feeling so content....without even realizing it, my hand moved to my belly and... yes, friends, I started rubbing.
I have become that which I once disdained.
A belly rubber.
I'm going to try very hard to keep my belly rubbing private. I remember the emotions belly rubbers created for me when things seemed bleak. And of course it would make me look crazy since I don't look pregnant, just fat.
I thought I'd never become this....a happy, content, sleepy, belly rubber.
i am very happy for you. I hope to join you in the world of the belly rubbers very soon.
ReplyDeleteCome over to the dark side! Join the belly rubbers!
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, such a special moment.
Awww. . .a closet belly rubber ;)
ReplyDeleteWell you deserve dear girl, so love on your little one(s) and rub away :)
As one who has rubbed a possibly pregnant belly that never turns out to be so, I do not judge you one bit! ;-) Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Maddy
Belly rubbing - it's all very annoying until you find yourself doing it, too! :)
ReplyDeleteYour next ultrasound is almost here!!!
You are going to flip your lid when you feel that baby move.
ReplyDeleteI'm already a belly rubber and not pregnant. I don't know why, I just often fall asleep with my hand on my stomach. Rub away and many hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteRub away sister, you deserve it- it's just those loving mommy instincts kicking in....and I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteI always found belly rubbing annoying too! That is until I had a reason to rub! But like you I keep it private.
ReplyDeleteI am so so happy for you & glad you are feeling the happiness too!
I'm glad you are feeling so happy! Keep rubbing and keep the little one cozy. :-)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about your U/S today. It's going to give you positive reassurance of your healthy baby!!!
ReplyDeleteYou belly rub all you want, Paige! You deserve it and it lets you little one know how much he/she is loved.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear how well your u/s goes today!!
:-))
ReplyDeleteBefore being pregnant, I couldn't understand this belly rubbing thing.. Enjoy it! (and yes, I too tried to keep it private never knowing who is looking at me wishing...) But you enjoy it. as was said, you certainly deserve it!
