First visit to the Midwife

I am beginning to connect with this new life inside of me. Its amazing how a strange sense of unconditional love appears from no where. Jannah will always be special because she was the first but this baby has come on his/her own special timing when things are turbulent. Its like the thought of the baby is the only peace of mind and reassurance that everything is going to be ok as it always has been. I hope all goes well for us by the mercy of Allah – almighty!

So I have to do all the blood work and regular painful procedures which I wish I could run away from. I think they are totally unessential because man has been reproducing from time memorial but nevertheless I want to do whatever is best for the baby and myself. So here I am gritting my teeth and fearing my next appointment with all my heart!
