I am planning to change the name of my Blogger page to " Sound of Naina" - my sweet bundle of joy, she lighted our life on 23rd Mar 2011. Ever since that day- infact much before that my life was just playing one sound and that was hers :)
I am not unique, it happens with every mom..from the day you conceive you just start behaving so differently. I remember simple things I could never get into my lifestyle- all of that came so naturally to me . For eg. drinking 8-12 glass of water, having milk, medicines on time ....and the list is endless.
I had followed all things to the book - line by line. But still I and my baby had to face issues. So one suggestion that I can give to all expecting mothers is...what is most important is staying happy. Carrying a baby is indeed a responsible activity but not so much that you are always under pressure and move away from life. Remember you are nurturing a life within you- and that cannot happen best till you live yourself.
Every phase of pregnancy is a beautiful phase. First phase is the toughest in my view. As you reach in it with just one discovery . Its a new feeling , new life, new responsibility that you have to cope with. To add to it , your health doesn't support at times. But the good part is all the attention and caring you get from your loved ones- husband, mother in law, friends, family. By the second trimester you have got used to the feeling and the idea has slowly settled in . Its your normal life with the additional joy of carrying. In the last trimester when it gets tough to move around or go out often, its a wonderful feeling to feel the movement of your baby inside. The priceless moments you and your partner spends feeling and talking to the baby are so beautiful. I spoke a lot to my daughter in that term- I still have to see the impact of it on her :)
I wrote a lot also during that time. Those one can call " Notes to my Baby" I wanted my child to feel a part of the journey we had.
Being the hyper me...I gathered so much of information about everything related to pregnancy and babies that I am a mini encyclopedia myself now :)
