I don’t know how many of you are allergic to crying babies, stinky diapers, and tantrums. I sure was, and wondered every single day of my pregnancy period “how am I gonna handle this?” Dealing with a miscarriage once, I did pray for a healthy baby but most of those 9months went by scaring the hell out of me, I was worried about having a miscarriage again, when I got tired, had a headache or when my baby fooled me by not showing any movements for the day.

Time flew, days turned to months and my labour time was less than 6 hours which was indeed a blessing, and that one moment when I saw my baby, was the happiest of all in my entire life. What did I learn throughout the process?

Patience

To deal with extreme anxiety

To keep calm even at the worst times

To listen to my own body than listening to people around

To pray more and believe in miracles

To take one day at a time

To have a balanced life and not to get too depressed or too excited about anything

To forgive and forget

To trust the process

To be humble enough to clean my baby’s stinky poop 🤭😆

Above all, jokes apart, to be a new human being who is strong, capable to sacrifice, trust, forgive, move on, try infinite times, and to learn from every single experience you come across and be energetic as day passes.

The best and last thing is that a miscarriage doesn’t mean you cannot be pregnant again or you can’t give birth to a healthy baby. A miscarriage could be one way of teaching you that you are more strong, enough to grow a new life in your womb, and once you give birth naturally, you know that no pain in this world can beat you ever, as you have gone through the worst and the best at the same time…
