My Jennie

28 April 2010

I was itching. I was over the moon! I had a growing baby inside of me and I really wanted to share the news with this someone special. My friend Jennie.
I knew who Jennie was from back home, but it was within the UK borders that I really got to know Jennie. Today, probably my best friend and my baby’s L aunt Jen.

I had this idea that I would met up with Jennie, things would be normal and out of the blue I was going to say, you going to be aunt Jen. BUT no, trying to get a date with miss J was harder then ever and my whole plan went to trash, when trying to get us to meet up. She spitted the words out (total Swedish translation)
“ Are you with baby?" Through the phone…

As I was so itchy I came clean and admitted my happiness. I was going to be a mum and Jennie was going to be the aunt… Over the phone…

As baby grew bigger, I developed “baby brain”, I m guessing around week 46 on the 18th of November. I had just managed to get us in with UCL hospital.
Jennie came to meet up with me, as we sat down in the waiting room, speaking Swedish Jennie says, “I’m pregnant”.
I cried of joy! SO happy!
I got to be what Jennie had been to me, the best midwife ever. I have to confess Jennie did a way better job then me. Being a mum totally put you inside this bubble and you tend to forget people…
But I’m so forever happy that I got Jennie, she still comes and sees us with her baby inside whenever she can. AND I LOVE HER FOR IT.

So in Return I’m going to make something spectacular for her!
