knit1purr2 So in years past the month of December has been busy but alright. Work isn't too busy and i manage to get all holiday preparation done so I can enjoy my time off between Christmas and New Years. Last year my December was SHIT. It started on the 2nd and went downhill from there.
So I was expecting that December would be shitty especially between the 10-16. AKA the point where they told me my son would not survive to the day he was no longer inside of me.
Then I got pregnant this year on the EXACT same timeline as I did last year. (my due dates are just 2 days different) which means I am now 20 weeks pregnant just like the beginning of December last year. Thankfully I have gotten more tests and we are pretty sure that they baby is medical boring and everything will be fine.
BUT then the cherry on top is that today the Supreme Court is starting to listen to a case that may overturn Roe v Wade (or further limit abortion access) and that is just very very scary. So my body is misbehaving and my mind is bouncing all over the place. Work is the furthest thing from my mind right now.
So I am trying to get through today and tomorrow and the rest of the month. Which will take a lot out of me. But I will remember that I have an awesome support system. I will have medical appointments that will verify that this pregnancy is different then my last one. I have an appointment with my therapist for next week.
