Baby P's due date Nov 20th.....

I was so excited to be pregnant, and really I was very fortunate. I was never sick, I gained very little weight, and all in all I considered myself to be very lucky . We were coming into summer though, and I knew the warm months ahead might start to make things a tad uncomfortable. We had met with our family doctor, and she had wanted us to consider having the testing for Down Syndrome ( because of my age ) . It seemed like the logical thing to do at the time, but honestly if I could go back and redo it, I would have never had it done...for 2 reasons, it would not have changed our feelings about this baby, and simply because, I put myself through unnecessary worry....the constant "what if "...was just not worth it. As it turned out, everything with the test came back negative, and the pregnancy moved on. What I do want to say to anyone who maybe reading this...please NEVER doubt yourself in your pregnancy...if something feels wrong, please don't wait to seek help..NO question is a dumb one, and NEVER let anyone make you feel like you are overreacting !!! I did to some degree and sometimes I wonder if it started the chain of events that were about to unfold....
I sometimes wonder just how much I should share on this blog, but if I want to reach out to people who are  going through similar things...I want to be as honest and open as I can ...so I apologize in advance if I am a bit too detailed...lol
