So, got my next test done on 09 th and yes! It was positive. At 4:00 am in morning, I did the test. That moment was like getting fresh air after being stuck in the lift for an hour. That moment was like seeing the sea from a ferris wheel. I guess the bliss of giving birth to a child, is so very immense because the risks and pain surrounding those 9 months are equally elevated. Husbands take time to grasp all major developments in his woman’s life. I had this ...
