And now it seems like a lifetime ago that I could be that happy and also, that I could take that happiness for granted. That falling pregnant and having a healthy baby to bring home just seemed like a matter a time.

This Time Last Year
I was hungover recovering from my hen's party which my wonderful sister in law and another bridesmaid organised. We had a great day drinking, eating, laughing, and later in the night going out dancing. The neighbours took us out for Yum Cha. Their two kids were with us and I remember Mick taking one of the boys over to look at the fish tank so their Mum could have a break and eat something. I remember watching him and thinking how good he was with kids. It really was a feeling of having the world at my feet - we had less than a month until two weeks in NZ which would include another hens/bucks, our wedding, and honeymoon. We were going to stop using contraception the night of the wedding and were looking forward to falling pregnant.

What a difference a year makes, huh. It's tough now, but happiness will not elude forever.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping.
ReplyDeleteit's such a shitty lesson to learn, that it's not always that simple. that not everyone gets a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteright now, i wondering, if i had to learn this lesson - why NOW? why can't this be my lesson in two or three or four years, after I have a child already? why does this have to spoil any future pregnancies i have?
i hope rebecca is right, for all of us, more than i can say.
