It's amazing to me how fast time really flies, even when you're not having fun. These last 9 months have been an absolute roller coaster. I'm still finding it hard to believe that in a couple days my baby girl will be a member of the world. it feels like just yesterday that I was debating with myself about what to do with this little one... Thank god the morning sickness is over and done, although I could have sworn it would last forever.
I sit here at night stroking my belly, in an attempt to coax her out into the world. She's smart though, steadily enjoying the warmth and security of the womb. Secretly I think she is scared of her big brother... Even though they sometimes seem to be playing with one another. I know he knows she's in there but I don't know how he will react once she is out. I'm sure that he has yet to adjust to the fact that he will be a big brother soon. I know he is aware that there is a baby in my belly, but his young mind has yet to make the connection that in a few days he'll no longer be the baby. It's probably why the tantrums have increased to gigantic proportions. The next step now is learning to manage it all... balance out the time and attention between them and myself, so neither one feels neglected and I don't go crazy...
