My doctor appointment went well this week. While we were their another patient was in labor and after Dr. Ehmer examined her they went straight to the hospital. JP thought it was so exciting because he can't wait for Abigail to come into the world. I felt bad for the woman because of the pain I could hear in her voice. It was a reality check for me, but don't get me wrong I am still very excited for our baby to come. I measured 31 inches and have gained a total of 30 pounds.
It is kinda strange to celebrate Mother's day today. Several people wished me a Happy Mother's day, but I do not feel that I deserve this honor yet. I have not experienced the full joy, love, pain, stress, and work of having a child yet. However my love for Abigail grows daily.

Stephanie, you are INDEED worthy of being celebrated on mother's day! Afterall, Abby has completely taken over your life. I'll bet she's always in your thoughts, I'll even venture a guess that sometimes you find yourself worrying about her health and safety. You have given up many comforts to give her a safe comfortable home (like being able to roll over in bed and having to the bathroom every hour). Your body probably has taken a toll from lugging her around all day. People have probably stop noticing you as much, and are focused on your growing baby. And although waking up 6 times in the night to go to the bathroom is different than feeding your baby, your life is still turned upside down for the sake of your little one. You have NO idea what you're in for - the stress, the never ending work, and the sheer joy and love - but you are MOST worthy of the honor of being called a mom, and being celebrated on this day!!!!
