I met up with the same friend I had lunch with a few weeks ago. Her son woke up during our lunch and I held him for a short while. It was very bittersweet. She took a picture of us and I sent it to my husband. He had the same reaction. We're happy about the progress being made but there's just a cloud hanging over, you know? I would be close to 33 weeks now.
After our lunch, my friend's baby got a little fussy and was screaming his little lungs out in the car. She kept apologizing but I didn't mind. I never thought I wouldn't be annoyed by a screaming baby in a car.
I took a moment to reflect about everything. What had happened, what's currently going on, and hopeful about the future. It feels so...I don't know...weird. I'm excited to TTC again and then I stop and think, 'Wow, I was just pregnant a couple months ago.'
Sorry for the ramble. I'm just in a weird place right now. Not emotional but just a lot of reflection. I don't think since Ethan's birthday, I actually took a moment to myself to just think about everything.

Big step! Proud of you. I haven't been around any babies yet; two of my good friends are due in the next month or so- I don't know how I will react when I meet their babies, who should be just a few weeks younger than Nathaniel.
I'm in a weird place right now too. I don't know if I will ever not be.
