I'm pregnant!
The news dropped in front of me like a bomb. My lips parted wide open but no words emerged from my lips. For once , my brain stopped functioning and I don't know what to do. A number of emotions swell inside me and I feel as though I'm about to burst into tears.
Happiness, disbelief, worry, sadness swirl inside me all at once. Happiness because I will finally have another child after waiting for years. Disbelief for I still don't believe the heavens finally listened to my pleas and granted my prayers. Worry because my obgyn once warned me that if I ever get pregnant again it would be a delicate one. Lastly, sadness for the child in my womb will never have the chance to know his or her father.
But despite the number of emotions swelling in my chest, one ruled above the others and it's the feeling of blissful contentment at the knowledge that a life was growing inside my womb.
