30 poems. 30 days: Day 17 Aorta

First Trimester I'm sure

When I found out I was pregnant my first thought was Ohhhh *whatever first comes to your mind* Lol! I wasn’t jumping up and down nor was I screaming with excitement. I was in full shock (like I didn’t know it would happen). Read more about how I felt about my pregnancy here.

8 week appointment

Be careful what you pray for because God is a man of His word. Doctors told us we needed “help” getting pregnant but my God said… I got this. The first appointment, when we heard the heartbeat, in that moment I realized that a. I was FOR REAL pregnant and b. God is beyond words amazing. I wrote this piece after that appointment and whenever the baby bear is laying on me and I can hear his little heart beating I’m reminded of that day when God said yes and I said Thank you!

First day home

Me and my baby bear (8 months old)

Aorta

Our baby has a heartbeat.

A rhythmic melody playing inside of my womb.

Making music to my heart, creating techno, grooving tunes.

Our baby has a heartbeat that pumps life through its soul.

Finding strength daily to continue to move and grow.

Our baby, God sent to us.

Heart beating His Holy muse.

Learning proverbs from my Father,

SELAH,

crimson hues.

Dancing on the water,

cruising through the flood,

discovering its existence,

exemplifying God’s love.

Our baby heart beats…
