This too shall pass

It has been kinda rough around here lately. I have been experiencing some bleeding/spotting during this pregnancy, which has been really scary and stressful. Baby seems to be doing well at this point (15 weeks now), but I really would feel more comfortable if the spotting stopped. It has been hard to get excited about this baby since I am afraid that the outcome will be bad. But chances are we will have a healthy little one in August. It's just hard for me to be optimistic. What is especially hard is how my situation affects what I can do with Nic. I am a stay at home mom. I need to be able to play and do stuff with my kid each day. Half the time I need to rest a bit so I feel like I am neglecting him. I know he is ok, but I miss being able to do all the stuff we usually do together. Eric helps out so much, he is wonderful! I feel bad that he works all day and then comes home and works some more, but I know he doesn't mind. We are a team and right now I have to sit on the bench.

Hang in there honey! Little peanut swimming in there will appreciate the effort so much! You are an awesome Mommy (and Nic is well aware of that fact!!)
Love you - Connie

Yvonne,
I so agree with Connie. Hang in there pumpkin,
things will work out.
You have a great family that'll take care of
mommy when she's down.
I have a great daughter and wife to Eric and
a supper mother to Nic. I couldn't have asked
for anything better than having you as my daughter.
Take care and let me know how things are
going with you.
Love ya, Dad

This must be hard for you - I'm sorry I can't be there to chase Nic around while you rest! :( Take care of yourself & baby - Nic will get you back in full force soon enough! Besides, you can always play bring stuff to Mommy while she rests on the couch :) Do you have playdate friends that can entertain him for a few hours while you rest? I just joined a babysitting co-op and I think it will be a big help around here.

I love you!
