Chapter 8: One month Left

~*~ 3 Months Later ~*~

Ugh! I hate this summer heat, I only had one more month to go and my back hurt like all the time, and my ankles were swollen because of the July heat. Thankfully I was able to buy some maternity shorts so I didn't have to keep wearing the leggings, in the spring they were fine but once June hit along with the heat I just couldn't do it. I felt like I was going to pass out on that first day of heat. Thank goodness for Michael, he saw that I was not feeling good in the least so he took me to get the shorts. He is so amazing, these past few months he's acted just like I imagined a father would act about this pregnancy and the baby, he loves cuddling with me with his arms around my very pregnant belly, he gets excited when the baby kicks, and this month he's going with me to labor classes. He still hasn't officially asked me to marry him yet and we haven't had sex at all, I know he wants to wait but it's really hard, my doctor said that I'd have a higher urge in my 2nd trimester and wow she was right, even when he just held my hand I totally wanted to do more, but now I mean I still want it but I'm so much more tired and I feel icky almost all the time, so it's better for him. I still don't really get why he wants to wait so bad, but I'm too shy to ask him about it, maybe I'll ask Sarah.

I've been going to church with them every Sunday, and I really do like it, the people are really nice to me, I have gotten a few strange looks but most of the people are so nice, one day the pastor talked about how we all sin and God can't have sin around him, so since He wanted us to be with Him He sent His Son Jesus to die for our sins, and if we wanted to get to heaven we needed to ask Jesus Christ to be apart of our lives and save us, I thought that was kind of weird why would you tell your son to die for the world? I asked Michael about it and he said God did it because He loves us so much, and Jesus didn't stay dead, three days after he died he rose from the dead, when Michael said that I was shocked...whoa, did He really? I couldn’t get that out of my mind, I felt in my heart that it was true. So one night I started talking to God, I asked Jesus to come into my life, and I all of a sudden felt at peace, I wasn’t worried about the pregnancy or anything, so that night I stayed up almost all night talking to God, I told Him everything, my hopes, fears, frustrations, everything. When I told Sarah, Michael and their parents they all hugged me and Sarah said “welcome to the family” it was really cool. They gave me a Bible which I started reading everyday, I couldn’t get enough. I finally found out why Michael wanted to wait, it's in the Bible, sex is for marriage basically. That made me feel guilty because I had sex when I wasn’t married. I talked with Michael about it and He said that God already forgave me and now He's blessing me with a beautiful little baby, that made me feel so much better, it felt great, like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. So anyway I have one more month to go and tomorrow I'm starting labor classes. Today I just felt like sleeping, it was so hot out for me I didn’t want to do anything. Michael was so amazing he brought me some ice water and some frozen raspberry yogurt, that helped a lot. By the time dinnertime rolled around I was feeling much better. I ate with the rest of the family. Then after dinner Michael and I watched a movie, and cuddled. After the movie he walked me up to my bedroom, lightly kissed my lips and said goodnight.

I fell asleep thinking about him.

I woke very suddenly, breathing heavily. When I realized where I really was I started calming down, 'wow, it was just a dream' I thought to myself. 'it had seemed to real' I looked at my still pregnant belly. I had dreamed about being in labor and giving birth to my baby girl, it felt so real. The scary part was, in my dream I was all alone. I was just left alone at the hospital, with no one helping me but this nurse named Emi. I couldn’t shake the dream and go back to sleep so I tiptoed down to the kitchen. I searched around for the makings of a sandwich, I'd kill for one of Michael's amazing sandwiches but I didn’t want to wake him.'ugh where is the sandwich meat' I couldn’t find it, so after searching and getting frustrated I gave up on the sandwich, I started looking around for other food but nothing sounded as good. I closed the pantry and turned back to the refrigerator, I almost jumped out of my skin all thanks to Michael sneaking up on me.
