I'm currently 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant, I'm getting a late start on this but I will start from the beginning. I first found out that I was pregnant in March, I was terrified and really didn't know what to do..I gave myself a week to make a decision : to keep my baby, get an abortion or get an adoption. I knew I could do this, if it was by myself or with my baby's father. When I first told my baby's father, he didn't believe me and I didn't really have proof other than what my OB had told me. So, with that said my baby daddy just told me to get rid of it. A couple days went by and I decided to keep my baby with the father being there or not. It was all my decision. I went in for an ultrasound and my baby was already a formed baby, meaning it had arms and legs formed and it was about 15 cm long. Strong heart beat and everything. I never had morning sickness in the beginning but during my second trimester, I did and it sucked but I knew at the end it would all be worth it. The baby's father started to come around and did accept the fact we were having a baby.
Reveal Time : around my 18 weeks, we found out we were having a little boy! we were both so excited!
During my whole pregnancy up until now I've been getting so much support from my family, his father's family and even really close friends. I've become friend with so many new moms that have been in my situation or are about to be in my situation and I help them through it.
Like I said before, I'm 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Yesterday I had to go to the hospital because I was having really bad contractions. I only ended up being 2 cms dilated and my cervix was barely starting to thin out. This morning (september 14, 2017) I lost my mucus plug which holds my son and his atomic fluid in the atomic sac. I could have my son within the next few days or weeks. I pray it's the next few days.

I know I didn't cover much, but most of my journey is on instagram (@alexamoniquexo). If you're going through a pregnancy you aren't alone. i'm very happy with my son and I will be posting updates once every two days. Hopefully you'll guys enjoy!
