Why wear a ribbon?

  "I wear this ribbon for my son!" (WorriedMomTX)

MDJunction to me

Storm6751"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

i'm 24 weeks pregnant with our second daughter and 3rd child.

Normally when i put mikeys hand on my tummy he moves it fast as it's not where he wants his hand to be obviously for whatever reason.

anyway so lately i've been on bedrest because my pelvis is too loose and is very painful, he came and laid beside me on the couch and was trying to figure out where to put his hands as he wanted a cuddle, so i put his hand on my belly and held his hand...

the baby started kicking and initially he didn't notice but then he started to and for the first time he started saying Baby and was able to understand that there is a baby in mummies tummy.

it was so exciting for me... now when i ask him where the baby is he comes up and touches my tummy and says baby, and gives it a kiss.

it's sooo sweet!!!!

Thats brilliant!!! I can't wait until mine is big enough for my little one to make the link, she has pulled funny faces at it but there is no recognition of what it is yet.

Shes only two and I'm not showing yet but you can feel it, I am hoping when I have a bigger bump that she can see she will understand more
