I enjoy Facebook memories, there is something about them that makes you reminisce about where you were and thankful for where you are.
Today’s memory brought me back to such a happy day. We were pregnant at the time and had reached 16 weeks, which for us was HUGE. We had gone in for an ultrasound and saw our baby move, saw him moving his hands and feet he was dancing in the womb.
By that point, we had not officially announced our pregnancy and only a handful of people knew, I still wanted to commemorate that day so I went on FB and posted the update below.
We had gotten further along than any other pregnancy before it, so it was important to remember that and be grateful for that.
Today it serves as a reminder that even the little things deserve recognition. I know that it will help me during my next pregnancy. Maybe I will adopt that as my motto the next time I am pregnant. Every milestone deserves to be celebrated.

This is so very true. Every moment deserves recognition, no matter how small. Hugs to you!!
Ooof, Facebook Memories can be a rabbit hole of grief, but I’m glad that this one made you feel hopeful for the future. Celebrating every milestone really helps a body live in the moment and enjoy as much as possible while you can, I’m all in for that! Thinking of you, and hoping for more milestones in your future.
I really like this too. You know, I appreciate the happy memories I have of my early pregnancies, both of which I lost. The pain ebbs away, or is at least expected, but the memories of the joy remain. And that’s not nothing.
Yeah, it is nice to think about the joyful moments in each of the five. it was painful but there were some good moments.
