Ashamed

I can’t believe I am confessing this.  I am embarrassed to admit it.  I used to make fun of people for doing it.  I was always astonished when I saw others doing it.  Then the day came when I was desperate enough to try it.  It was last week, my whole body was aching under the pressure and weight of the little one inside me and I gave in.  That’s right, I put on my bikini and went down to our community pool and let the whole world see my baby belly.  It was really only two older couples and a couple of moms and their babies, but it seemed like the whole world.  I have to tell you that it felt amazing.  I found myself wishing I had given in a bought a maternity bathing suit months ago.  Will I do it again?  I don’t know, maybe yes, maybe no!
