Motherhood is Very Rewarding 2
             I couldn't imagine how it would feel to be a mother until I became pregnant. At that time I knew there was a little human growing inside of me. The feelings and thoughts I had were so unbelievable. It was the best feeling that I have ever felt. That brings me to the point that being a mother is very rewarding.
             When I found out that I was pregnant I didn't know what to think. A lot of thoughts ran through my mind and I felt so many different emotions. I didn't know if I was ready to be a mother. I felt that I was still a child myself. Then it came to the point that I needed to realize that I had to grow up sometime, and that is what I did. From then I made sure I did everything to stay healthy. Then many different events started to happen that made me realize that being a mother was very rewarding. For instance the first time I felt her kick made me so happy. That hit home because I knew that there was a baby in me and I was helping it grow. From then on whenever she would kick or move it made me think, "This is only going to get better." Sometimes I would even try to make her move around. The doctor said to do this you could drink some cold water then lie down on your side or get a flashlight and go into a dark room and shine it on your stomach.
             Those are things I did just to feel my own baby move. Then when it came to going to my doctor appointments I again got to experience something that only a mother could do. My doctor walked in the room with a small device that looked like a walkman with a microphone on it. I was thinking to myself, "What is that and what is it for?" He then asked if my boyfriend and I would like to try and find the baby's heartbeat. I was
             extremely excited and said "Yes." The doctor then said I don't want to get your hopes up
