Do you ever wonder why your husband does not really understand what is going on with your body while pregnant? Why he is not as caring or sincere as you think he should be? You wonder what is wrong with him...I mean 'HELLO' he helped to put you in this situation. And maybe you have that really great guy who does help out and not give you that put out look when you ask for a shoulder massage or your feet rubbed. LUCKY! I have had three beautiful children with my hubby and all three, well, lets just say I didn't really get coddled in any way. No special treatment, no I know you are going through so much and I am here. Nada. Now, I did get the I love yous and you look great (tho, I think after 10 years, that becomes an automatic response...just kidding, maybe ;-) ), but not much else. Now you are probably wondering what this has to do with my becoming a surrogate. Here is the point. My man, has made it abundantly clear that he will make sure that I am well taken care of throughout all of this. You know, and I have heard this before from another surrogate, I actually think he is more excited and will be more involved with this pregnancy. He even wants me to have twins! Can you believe it?! I obviously just want to be sure one of these two eggs take, but he wants me to ensure I do everything in my power to make sure both take! LOL. I understand his reasoning behind this remark. He wants our parents to have the full "benefits" of this pregnancy and get the most out of it, which means one but hopefully two babies. I agree to an extent, but I have never carried twins and I can only guess how that will feel! LOL.
I am really blessed to have my husband. He is behind me on any decision I make, even if he may be iffy about it. This path I am now on (we I should say), he has been behind, 100%. He has even told me how proud he is of me and what I have decided to do. I am not sure about you, but I have not heard that from him very often and I believe I will treasure that moment more than any of the I love yous and you're beautifuls I receive. I love knowing that the man I have been with for 10 years is proud to be at my side and proud to call me his wife. I don't think I could have picked better in a man!
Thank you for believing in me, baby and being there whenever I need you!
What an amazing experience for you all! I hope it's twins too! Thinking of you tonight and tomorrow! love ya, proud of ya
ReplyDeleteGood luck today! Hope everything goes well. Keeping my fingers crossed for twins!!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe if both little ones attach you'll get those foot rubs and a little more sympathy. ;-) Course there would be other benefits... But having your feet rubbed is so high on the list!!!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteMan, I hope so! If both attach, lets just say that I will probably need the extra tender loving care! Hopefully he figures that out! lol
