{ Humbling }

{ Sorry So Long }

As of tomorrow I will be out of the triple digits (refer to the baby ticker). FINALLY, a little more than 12 weeks to go! I feel like this pregnancy has gone by pretty fast. It also has been a little harder than Nixen's pregnancy. I was so super sick the first 4 months or so and that was very challenging with having to still take care of Nixen and Nick. Since I'm not sick anymore I have found there are new and different challenges. Nixen is so physically demanding right now and I have no energy to chase him around. Without being pregnant, I have always been anemic so being prego makes my iron levels even lower. So that in itself is really hard with a 1 year old. However, with that said, the past week or so I have read a few blogs where women were unable to get pregnant or keep a pregnancy. Every time I read something like that I feel so horrible for complaining about anything. Being able to have children is probably the best thing that has ever happened to me and it breaks my heart others can't experience that or have to go through so much to get there. I decided today, I'm not going to say another word about any aches, pains, how big I feel or even how hard Nixen is becoming. I guess for what your body is going through and producing, pregnancy really isn't that bad! I don't know if any of you watch Oprah but today was about a women who got an infection after having her 2nd baby and they had to amputate her arms and legs. Watching her story was so humbling to me. Here I am complaining that Nixen is into everything and running around all the time when she only wishes she could chase her kids around the house. I guess it just makes me thankful for the life I have when others have it so much harder.
