Mobil: It all started with Santa
2 years ago my daughter waited patiently in line to see Santa. When she happily crawled up into his lap she surprised my husband and I with her request. A baby sister. We had not considered the idea of another child until that day. We struggled with infertility getting our daughter and I just didn't know if I could do it again. After a few weeks of talk we decided to give it shot, one year and if it didn't work then it just wasn't meant to be. Here I am, 8 days away from my RCS and seeing the excitement on my daughters face as she marks the x on the calendar in the countdown to meeting who she calls her baby, I am very emotional. I am so happy I had 4 years with her, just the 2 of us and I am so glad that Santa granted her wish. I can't wait to see M holding baby K for the first time. I am so glad that despite our fears of more losses and heartache that we decided to give baby 2 a try. I am feeling whole and ready and excited and happy. The joy I have in my heart is something I can't even begin to describe.
There is no real point to this post, I just wanted to share a bit more of my story with you ladies and thank everyone for all of the honesty, advise, and of course gifs over the last 9 months. I can't wait to read birth stories!!!
