Prologue

Being pregnant changed me

I mean, of course, it changed me physically. But I mean it changed me mentally. Like, I somehow got more mature; I grew as a person. Seriously, no pun intended. 

It was like, everything that I had done, everything that I wanted to do or was ever going to do didn't matter. All that mattered was this baby - this child. 

And it's so scary to think about, it literally starts to consume you. And I don't think it ever fully registers until you start to see it happening. See the changes that it's making to your body... See it grow. 

I think, pregnancy has two faces. One is, WOW... I can't believe this is happening! I can't believe there is a person growing inside of me. 

The other is, my life, isn't my life anymore, it's our life. It's OUR body. I used to say, me and I. Now it's us... we.
