I. Am. Woman.



I’m Not Sad, I Swear

March 27, 2007

It's official:  Everyone I know is pregnant.

Well, maybe not everyone. 

But this, reading my high school barkada's blog that she's 8 months pregnant with her second child after months of not hearing from her, another high school batchmate blissfully recalling her first pregnancy while in the throes of her second as well, and finally, insanely beautiful pregnant pictures of another high school classmate splashed all over her just put up Multiply site (and yes, it's her second too). 

It's when a girl of 6 climbs up to me, asking to be carried, and her mom half jokingly says (and the others chime in):  D, don't do that.  You're too heavy for Tita J.  Mataktak nya ang iyang uterus.  It's when I know they're all rooting for me, and at the same time, worried for me.

I am not usually jealous.  And I still do have ambivalent feelings about being a mom sometimes.  But there are times, oh yes, there are times when I just want to hold a baby's face to mine and smell its sweet baby breath.

I don't know where this comes from, as all I've been watching are magician movies (The Illusionist and The Prestige). And all I've been dreaming about in my sleep are cat murders.
