A Woman’s Body
I know, it is a weird title for a baby blog but we must admit how fascinating.
Being the spectator of human evolution is quite a ride. I am, daily, confronted by it, just looking over my shoulder in that bed which is shrinking in size daily as my partner is growing a little girl inside of her.
Men never give enough credit to women for going through what they are handling silently or not.
The changes occurring in the body are a true wonder of life. The human body is by essence such an incredible machine. I always knew about it but to be living it is a total different story.
Each week brings its own mystery of engineering which help create a mini human in full form with full brain cell and feelings. It is insane to imagine how complex the human body is and how mystical the changes are. The precision is perfect, the evolution is made step by step and each step has its goal.
Mother Nature has been organizing this forever and she does it to perfection.
Women are magical. Unbelievable.
To come back to your mother, Addison, you have no idea what is she going through to provide you with skin, bones, organs, brain cells etc…
Her body has known some interesting developments; her boobs are huge (to my pleasure before you take over), she gains little weight but expended a lot as you are taking more space, allowing you to grow to your final size.
She is currently suffering shortness of breath, daily high Acid reflex attacks, cankles (lack of ankle) as her feet are expanding, back aches, eyes issues, depravation of sleep, and rashes in different location of her body.
Besides those inconveniences, her smile has never left her, her mood is still so positive (besides a few hormonal spikes – I will tell you some stories later). She wants you so badly that whatever her body is putting her through, she will accept the torture with a smile, maybe a tear, but she will never let you down. Your mom is an incredible woman.
I am definitively fascinated and even more respectful today than I was yesterday.
I am turning to politics for just a second. It is absolutely disgusting to me that men are deciding what is good for women and their bodies in bills which are taking us back to the middle age. Their ignorance has no boundaries and I am ashamed for them. How dare they?
Men have not and will never reach the strength women have.
Men should have no say in what is good or bad for women, since they don’t know what they are going through.
My mother told me how to respect women when I was a child, but she failed to mention how incredible their bodies and their spirit are.
I am so happy that you will be a woman, as I know you will have the heart and the strength of your mom, my Love.
7 weeks to go…..
You are real now, see you soon Addison.
