i decided that having a baby is one of those out-of-body experiences.
and not cause the baby comes… out of your body…
i came across this picture that cc took of me when we went to the driving range
{the weekend before B came}
first of all…. really… that IS big…
but
really?
that little human was once inside me?!
that is such a foreign concept to me…
maybe it’s because i didn’t feel big enough to have a little person inside me,
or maybe it is because i didn’t have the experience of real birth
so i never could make the connection.
either way, it is easy to forget that i felt like this for 9-ish months
and couldn’t wait to get to this phase.
goodbye nasty prego months of back pain and stress and emotional havoc…
i don’t miss you…
{though i know i will see you again…}

The whole pregnancy/birth/baby experience is such a bizarre surreal miracle! I don't think it matters how the baby makes it from in there to out here, it's hard to wrap your head around the fact that your baby once fit inside your stomach. I remember having similar feelings after each of my babies were born. I even had similar thoughts a month ago when I witnessed the birth of my nephew..
