A lot of thoughts go on in my mind at this time. Will the baby, be a boy or a girl? Will the baby be healthy, wealthy and wise? Will the baby be this and that..the list goes on.

And then you realize you have no control over anything. The baby is in you, you have to trust your body is doing its job of taking care of the fetus. You begin to trust in the goodness of life and God. I've learnt that you must cherish the happinness and joy of being uncertain of the biggest gift you are about to receive.

I am not a very religious person, but I keep praying for my baby. For once you realize there is someone greater than you who wors through you.

I found this site www.jewishpregnancy.org, it a good site if your looking for comfort and sustenance during your pregnancy. It is more for Jewish women, but it could work well for you too.

It was October 23rd when I discovered I was pregnant. Somehow I didn't expect it, but wasn't too surpised either. I felt a lot of emotions at that time, from that moment on, I feel like I have clenched my belly. I did the test and when I saw the "t" line showing up, I knew I was called to "Motherhood".

Was the pregnancy planned, in a large way YES in a very minor way NO, that is only because 'next year' sounded like the in-thing. In my opinion even if it is a planned pregnancy, you cannot be totally ready until the fact soaks into your system. Puneet and me couldn't be happier. Both of us didn't ache for a baby, didn't pine, we were busy and leading a wonderful life and the stork drops in.

If you were to ask me if I love this child, I can't answer. But I do feel responsible for the little being who is currently 5-6 weeks into the first trimester. Puneet also feels responsible, he's being the best father-to-be.Long ago, I had read the best thing a father can do for his child is to love its mother. I think it is soo right.

So my baby is currently being formed and made in me. Will keep you posted!
