Growing and glowing
By Brightstar » Posted Feb. 24, 2013 9:36am - 153 views - 0 comments

Some days like yesterday and today,I can feel my womb expanding,my womb feels hot and energised with new life.Its a beautiful feeling,thankyou God.
I have slept alott this week.The headache has gone,I had a heaqdache for a few days,put me right out of action in general.Fruit helps alott.I started the day with some lovely juicy grapes.
We will be 12 weeks tomorrow!!!Goodness me.Yesterday I went to wear my bag,and had to change the straps.My belly itches again today as it grows.By 12 weeks our babies are the size of a lime!!Thats pretty huge really isn't it?
I danced yesterday,only a little as I felt so sick.I spent most of the last 2 days in bed.Boy was I grateful of a lovely comfortable bed.Lovely seems to be the word of the day,ah well,I shall just go with it.
I need a callanetics session today,so will fit that in.Thankyou God.
My pregnancy symptoms are pretty easy going.My legs ache again,something I have had off and on all the way through this pregnancy.
I have had some worries,we all get them,I let them come,I let them go.
Especially when there has been losses,it does make us that bit more concerned.
I have more energy today,thankyou God.So I shall make up the day as I go along.I love looking at belly pictures,I have a bit of a belly obsession,so I am just going to go along with that :).
I am glad I knew of my pregnancy from such an early date,I have enjoyed the first trimester.Every symptom,I have deeply appreciated.I am ready to step into my,well,our second trimester.

Soon my belly will show enough for others to see,I don't mind,a few of them know of our past losses and will be delighted for us.The last trimester I will get into crocheting lots,blankets,hats and things,God willing,as that will be my main resting time.
hubby is starting to treat me pregnanbt,that touches me very deep.We have been together for around 15 years,I appreciate him so much.Sure we annoy each other at times,but hey don't we all.

I can't wait to see him and the boys when we have new life in the house,that will be the most touching.
I can get some under bed drawers and the baby things can be kept under there.Our home needs some loving,it's horrible when you are not well and can't do such thi ngs.I look very much forward to having more energy today.I surrender the worry,as what is the point,we do what we can,when we can and we feel its our best,thats good for me.

I love being pregnant.I think about Abraham and Sara from the bible,how trhey must have felt to have children after waiting so long.I wonder how eve felt when she learnt that she was pregnant.women of the bible truelly inspire me.Pregnancy would have been so different then,no pee sticks,just God saying ''you are pregnant'',and that was enough,they were happy with that.No scanning machines,just pure faith.
For me,this pregnancy and birth is a journey of faith.
Faith in God
Faith in my body
Faith in my pregnancy.
thankyou God x

I watched the busness of being born the other day,I recommend it to any pregnant woman.

I am looking forward to sharing tomorrows picture.
