One of the best parts of being pregnant is this sense that this little being goes with me everywhere I go.
S/he has already done quite a bit for an 8-week-old embryo. How many embryos get to defend a dissertation?? Not many, I'm guessing. And then, how many get to set foot (or, I guess, set limb bud?) in three new countries, not to mention another continent, all before losing their tail? This here is a very busy, well travelled little creature!
Seriously, it's been amazing to go through my days with this burgeoning sense that I am not alone, even when there is no other person around. It is lovely to have the Little One here inside me throughout the days. Right here, growing and heart beating inside of me.
Bliss.

Keep growing little one as you become a world traveler!
ReplyDeleteBusy little embryo!
ReplyDeleteI remember that feeling well, especially when in the car.
I am so happy for ya'll, I don't think I had gotten a chance to post since the ultrasound! Congrats!!!
ReplyDeleteMo (and Will), congrats on the little one! I think it's so great that you are excited and that you are thinking about your baby doing all the cool things you do! :)
ReplyDeleteYES! I loved having that knowledge too. Just wait until s/he starts to flutter around. Truly one of the most amazing moments of my life feeling that for the first time. I cannot WAIT for you to experience the same!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the comments on my blog, love having your support. :) Hugs to you and Mini Mo.
That does sound like pure happiness and bliss!
ReplyDeleteIt is truly wonderful isn't it? Mine got to hear a few different languages and travel to two different countries (and even 'home' to my family!) before too long at all!
ReplyDeleteI'm so thrilled for you both. And I'll be following along religiously!
I am so darned excited for you two, you have no idea!!! Jumping for joy over here! Well, not jumping because that would be scary with my fat belly but you get the idea! LOL

love this post.
ReplyDeleteWhat a blissful feeling that is indeed....He is already learning everything you are talking about!!! The Little One is going to be learned, well travelled guy/gal when he/she finally arrives...
ReplyDeleteWishing you the very best!
I hear you. My daughter (!!!!) traveled from the US to Canada in a cryo tank, then back to the US in me! Going away for a few days next week and we will be in Canada again for a day.
ReplyDeleteMy mother was hugely pregnant with me at her college graduation.
Tell us more about the vacation, please!
I know, it's so cool, isn't it?! So excited for you both!!
ReplyDeleteThat is just so sweet! Snuggle in and enjoy your 9 month home, little one!
ReplyDeleteAw, that is so sweet. Yay embryo!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way of thinking about this! I need to remember more often that someone is always with me, even if I don't know them yet. I'll admit to remaining a little detached this time around out of (fear? necessity?) but I like your approach better. :)
ReplyDeleteSweet :-)
ReplyDeletei know, right!!! its crazy!
ReplyDeletei'm so excited for you (both....well, three!)
xoxo
I'm so happy for you and wishing you the best in this pregnancy! You've got one tough little pea in your pod!
ReplyDeleteYay! I love that feeling too. And it's fun to talk to the baby about things like first plane flights, first times in certain places, and first foods. I'm fairly sure I look crazy talking to myself, but who cares!!!
ReplyDeleteThis bliss only keeps getting better.
ReplyDeleteThat was totally awesome. Your post lifted my heart today. Thank you.
