What are you moms-to-be thankful for?

It’s sappy but after my loss history and years of infertility treatments, I am so grateful every day I wake up still pregnant.

@gingermama29 that’s great to be thankful for ☺️

I’m thankful that I got laid off from my job. I was really upset at first but the more time that passes, I’m enjoying being at home during pregnancy and turning this negative into positive.

Thankful I’m starting to feel movement! My PGAL and infertility brain keeps waiting for something terrible to happen. Weeks 3-4 between appointments is when that seems to get worse for me. So to feel some movement already at only 17w and a FTM is something I’m very thankful for.

I’m so grateful for my husband. He’s been an amazing support this time around. Our relationship has flourished in the last few years and I’m feeling so loved and cared for in a way that’s much deeper than with my first pregnancy. I wish that all women had such great support throughout all of life, and especially during pregnancy & child-rearing years. I’m a bit sappy today.

@gingermama29 not sappy at all it’s amazing to here and I’m thankful for you to have that as well 🥰 
@cherrystorming I’m a STM and started feeling it around 14ish weeks it’s sporadic and unpredictable but incredible every time it happens and I know what you mean about the length in between appointments it can become nerve racking just wondering what’s going on so glad your able to experience this and that it’s giving you reassurance 

pregnancy related I’m thankful I’ve only gained 2 pounds so far at 16w since at this point last time around I had gained around 20 and ended up gaining 65 total by the time my DD was born and never truly lost it all 
non pregnancy related my new puppy’s  training is going better than I expected it amazes me what he is able to register and do at 13 weeks and my brooder is laying on another 9 eggs!! I did not expect such a fast turn around her last chicks are only 12 weeks and will only be 15w when the next brood hatch so it looks like I now need a third chicken coop to accommodate the pullets until they can eat layer food and go in the main coop with everyone else😅 no complaints though I’m thankful this is the problem I have with the way eggs and chicken is going at the store I’m thankful to have such a successful brooder ❤️
