I Can Make It Till Friday...

Written on 8/20/2013

I Can Make It Till Friday….

                “I can make it till Friday.”  I think that’s a phrase we all tell ourselves every week for the most part.  Friday is a day to look forward to.  It usually brings an evening that we can enjoy life, family, and friends.  It’s the beginning of the weekend in which we can slow down, relax, put your worries aside, and enjoy the time away from monotony.   It just so happens to be in my situation, that Friday is my changing date from week to week.  So this Friday I will be 25 weeks, instead of 24 weeks pregnant.  And for each week that I can progress- the chances of my baby surviving and avoiding serious problems is huge.  I repeat “I can make it till Friday” every so often throughout the day especially when I start to worry about labor, get scared of the outcomes, or become just plain bored sitting in this hospital bed and need some motivation to stay positive.  When Friday comes and goes, then I will start looking forward to the next Friday. 

                I believe when we go through trials- we have to give ourselves goals of time to look forward to.  Whether it be an hour, a day, or a week that we have to make it through.  If we can just put one foot in front of the other and make it through small increments of time, it will eventually pass and the sun will shine.
