It's been a whole month since I found out I was pregnant, and I'm falling more in love with it everyday. I made a promise to myself that I would enjoy/embrace this pregnancy and this baby.

I've been catching myself a lot on Instagram accounts dedicated to babies and looking at all the cute little human beings. I'm ready for this. I want it all.

With the miscarriage I had last year, I was hurt that something I dearly wanted was taken away from me. And by me saying that I didn't want this baby was completely selfish of me.

I'm not far along at all, but I'm going to enjoy every single second of it. I've been capturing and noticing how my body is changing. My stomach is still a little flat, but I can't wait until my belly is so big that I can't see my feet.

Me and David only talk about the baby. Nothing more, nothing less. We don't see each other or talk like we used to. I try not to think about it to much.

I've been talking to Mama Faye and we've gotten more pieces for my line done. We've perfected a few things and it's really coming along well. It's been so therapeutic for me, especially with everything that been going on.

Once she found out about my pregnancy, she jumped up and down yelling "IMA BE A GRANDMA BITCH!"

I also told her about it being Amir's and not David's but she didn't care. She said it was still her grand baby and that's not going to make her treat it any differently. I'm just happy that her and David took it so well...

Stephanie's been such a great help. She's been making sure I'm eating right and taking all my vitamins.

Her and Jd are kind of getting serious but she won't admit it. Steph's always been a player.

Work for me has been great. It takes my mind off of a lot of things. Right now, I'm on my lunch break, eating a salad.

I looked at my watch: 12:57 PM. I got up, threw my trash away, and gulped down the rest of the water.

I walked back to the nurses station.

"Good Afternoon Nurse Beverly!" I smiled.

"Mmm, hey. What you so happy for?" She asked, typing on the computer.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked confused.

She looked up at me. "You know. 'Hehehe Good afternoon'" She cheesed copying me.

We both laughed. "I don't know. I'm just happy to be here I guess.." "Mmhmm."

I looked around. "Where's Stephanie?" She waved me. "Girl idk hell. Her ass probably in the damn janitors closet talking on the phone."

I chuckled. "Well yeah probably."

"Her ass need to come out of there so I can go in there." She said pointing at herself. "I got somebody I need to take care of." She said smirking.

"Now that's just fucking nasty Nurse Beverly." Stephanie said coming up behind us and sitting down in the chair next to nurse Beverly.

"What shit?! It ain't my fault Dr. Bryant keep coming back for more..."

"You a old freaky bitch." Stephanie said while eating her candy bar.

"Ya mama." She retorted back.

"Whatever."

"Ooh Steph give me a piece!" I said trying to take the candy out of her hands.

"Girl hell naw!" "Bitch gimme a piece yo stingy as-" In the middle of our argument, we were cut off by someone yelling.
