So the day came. On May 8th I gave birth via C Section at 10:13 am to Salina Hazel Coleman. She was born at 31 weeks. I went to the hospital for bleeding Thursday morning and although it had pretty much stopped, I was having contractions really close and they were worried about my blood count so they decided on a c section. She's really strong and she's awesome. She's doing really well. I emailed EJ the day I gave birth and he replied yesterday told me that if I believe that he's the father, to do a paternity test. Which is obvious. Then he said he knows he's not the dad. That was it. It's been bothering me all day. I don't know why I expected him to jump on board. My feelings are hurt too because this just shows how much we don't really matter. I feel like it's my fault and I deserve this. I keep blaming myself because I feel like it's my fault we're not together, at the same time how do I matter so little to someone who I thought cared about me so much? People said he probably didn't love me but he definitely acted like it. What am I not seeing that is so obvious to everyone else. I also don't get why he's so sure it's not his! We slept together multiple times. He says he can't have children but why? She does look like him but he has the ability to make me second guess myself. Shes got his crooked nose. I've been feeling really down today when I should just focus on my daughter getting better. Actually that brings me to something else. I feel kind of upset that I didn't have a full term pregnancy. It bothers me for some reason. I guess I'm upset that nothing went the way I was hoping. I feel like I was doing well and finally Settling into a comfortable place. I was doing job training, and I was started to feel better about EJ. I don't regret it at all I'm just disappointed and shocked at the turn of events. My little girl is amazing I love her. I miss Alena too, I saw her a few times while I've been in the hospital. She's so big and so smart. She was happy to see me too. She hasn't met her sister yet. She can't meet her until she gets released which might be awhile.
I don't know what to do at this point. C section requires a month of recovery and I still don't have a job and I still have bills to pay. What am I supposed to do for a month? :( I'll just keep praying because honestly there's nothing else I can do.
Lots of rants by a young mom. You might find good advice or you might find out your life is not so bad.

And the day came....

Looking towards the future.
So I'm 6 months into my pregnancy. I'm so excited about the baby! I've started buying some stuff too. She's a frequent mover. She moves all the time. Alena is doing well she's back in daycare and she is doing her toddler thing which includes whining, causing messes, temper tantrums, and driving mommy crazy. Kisses and hugs are involved though and so are new cute words. We're working on potty training so she can be potty trained by the time her sister comes. The pregnancy is not too bad. I feel great besides being tired a lot. I'm high risk though. I have complete placenta Previa. Which really worries me. If my placenta doesn't move by the time I need to deliver I'll need a c section. I'm also at risk for bleeding too much because of it. I'm supposed to be taking iron pills. I'm at risk for anemia so if I do bleed too much if my iron and blood count isn't high enough I'll bleed to death. So yeah that's fun. So besides that pregnancy is fine. Its just as easy if not easier than my last pregnancy, at least physically. I'm still fighting occasional depression. Still no word from Ej and I'm starting to think I won't be hearing from him till after the baby is born. Of course I'm still madly in love with him and I think about him everyday but it's becoming easier. Although some days are better than others. It's like he's dead honestly. The only thing I've got from him is Memories, my unborn child and pictures. Otherwise it's like he never existed. I'm sure this is what it's like to lose someone to death. But its almost worse because he's not dead he's out there and I have no way to see him or speak to him so it's torturous sometimes. I can't wait to have my baby so I can be very busy and not think about him at all. On the positive side a friend of Ejs family is supporting my pregnancy and is about excited as me about her. Which I'm very happy about. I worry about caring for two babies and being a single mom. All I can hope for is extra help with Alena. My financial situation isn't the best and I really do need a two bedroom apartment. Things will work out. Still the countdown to my pregnancy is exciting.

Visiting Japan
Swear getting over EJ is so hard. I dream about him every night in some way. Last night I was going on a trip to Japan. I was walking in the woods to a cabin maybe to meet some people EJ was there in the woods with a few girls but he was ignoring me. Then I got to the airport and boarded my plane and he called me. I don't remember what he said but he seemed worried. I was a little cold to him and he's like are you really going to act like this. I paused and I told him that I love him. That I love him so much. He said some other stuff I can't remember but then the plane was ready to take off and he told me to be careful and I told him I had to go and I'd call him when I got there. He was there in my dream almost like he was in the background. This dream was more vivid than usual. The trip to Japan seemed like fun. I only got so far in the dream but I did get so far as to being in a Japanese store. I never seem to fully escape from him. My friends think I should talk to a therapist. Maybe I'm going crazy. I don't know. I just want it to stop. I don't want to think about him. I want to forget the memories. I want to move on. Like he did. He moved on so fast. I know that he's happy with her too. Everything is going good in my life except this. It makes it hard to be happy.

Money, Money, Money
So as a single my mom with a single income is money. As of late it's been a struggle. I'm hoping that it won't last too long. My income tax should be coming soon and hopefully it should jump start us. I'll have plenty of money to save and even more money to build on especially for the new baby. I even get to treat me and the baby girl. $2,000 is being saved for a car so I can get one before next winter. Everything else will be bills and maybe $200 to splurge. I can't wait this will help so much. My little one is growing so fast. I'll post pictures. I've got a name picked out. Oh btw I'm having a girl. Lol A house full of girls who knew. Her name will be Salina Arya. I'm don't know what her last name will be. Either mine or EJ. We'll see. Probably my last name. Speaking of EJ I haven't heard from him at all. It's been over a month. I always wonder does he ever think of her. Or wonder how she's doing. He probably tries not too. Keeps reminding himself it's not his. My little Salina. It's makes me sad. In one of the ultrasound pictures she's got her fists up like she's ready to fight. That reminded me of him. She looks like she will look like me. I guess we shall see. I have another ultrasound coming up in a couple weeks to check her heart. Along with some prenatal appointments. I'm excited to see her again. I'll have another ultrasound to do in 9 weeks. No problems with her heart everything looks good so far.

Acceptance
Sunday, January 25, 2015
Been feeling a little down lately. I don't know why but I do. I've been really tired lately and I had a bad headache the other day. I think I just need time to relax and sometime by myself. I'm sure Alena has been exhausting me. I have almost no energy to keep up with a toddler. Yesterday I had friends over to keep me company. My friend Jazmine didn't come over cause she wanted to bring her boyfriend, and I didn't want him to come over. I just want to hang out with her. Not her and her boyfriend. It sucks she didn't come but I wasn't expecting her to. I had fun with the people who did come. We played cards watched movies and talked. Alena loved it. So many people to give her attention. Alena is usually awesome around a lot of people. I had an interview at a Vet hospital. It was fun. I enjoyed it I just hope that I can get the job. It's only $9 an hour but it's something. It'll get me closer to my job career so I'm not complaining. I find out later this week if I'll get the job. It's close too, it's only 7 mins from my house on the bus. All I need to figure out is where Alena is going to go. I'll be praying for a close and good daycare. Fingers crossed.
Kick kick hooray
Been feeling better. A lot of my friend's are helping me through this emotional roller-coaster. So I actually feel pretty good. The only time I feel kinda down is when I think a him and his girlfriend and when I feel the baby move. He's going to regret not being to feel these kicks and pokes. Smh He should have been around even if he really thinks it's not his atleast till we know for sure because his conscience would be clean and if its his then he knows he was there for everything. He's such an idiot for not knowing it's his. Infertile my ass. I'm pregnant! Your not that Infertile. Ugh I can't wait to have this baby so he can realize what a dumb ass he is. On a positive note I feel the baby kick every day they are soft little kicks but so cute and I can feel them when I put my hand on my tummy. Alena's is doing well too she walks everywhere. Still adorable the still exhausting lol. Well I've been nurse this headache all day so I'm going to sleep. Good night.

Down in the dumps
I'm in one of those moods. The I feel like shit moods. I just feel lonely. They say you should spend time with yourself and love yourself, but ugh it's so fucking boring. I hate being by myself because I'm alone with my thoughts. Thoughts of him, mostly. The pills I got were working but I think today my mind wants to be sad. I'm so sick of winter too. I want to go outside with my daughter and watch her play. Honestly I just want to get January over because then we'll be closer to spring, I'll see my ultrasound and February is a short month. Oh and income tax too. I'm still searching for another job also. I'm just looking for my luck to change. I hate knowing he's happy, and everything is going right, and he's got someone to keep his bed warm but, I sleep by myself and I have no job, no money, and it doesn't matter how much I pray nothing is happening. I have friends but that's not who I want to spend my day with. My daughter is walking a lot now. Up until 3 days ago she only walked a little bit and not for very long but now she walks everywhere. It's so funny. I think she knows mommy is sad I try to stay happy for her but it's tough. On the bright side I started writing my book yesterday. Honestly I don't know where this book is going but I guess we'll see where my imagination takes me. I just ran a bath and got a face mask to relax me a bit. I'm going on take another supplement and after Alena goes to sleep I'll take a relaxing bath. Bye for now.

Another Day
I've been praying a lot lately. For my baby because I stress so much and because I desperately want me and Ej to be together and to be a family. I also prayed for a job and car. I don't normally pray. I'm actually afraid of religion. I believe in spirituality and building a relationship with god. I'm still skeptical of anything regarding god, and Jesus. I grew up a Jehovah Witness and it was awful. My parents as my grandma said beat us over the head with the bible. Honestly I grew to not like anything regarding religion because of them. I only know it in a negative light. I also went to Ej's church and he's Pentecostal and they speak in tongues and its frightening. Not to mention it was the first time I'd seen it and he decided to do it. I was actually disgusted by it all. It felt wrong. So never again. They also kept trying to get me to try it and help Ej get the holy ghost..... keep in mind I grew up a Jehovah witness. No I don't want to try that! So that was a great first experience. Ej then told me we couldn't be together unless I joined him and I felt like that was unfair. I want to find my own spiritual journey, not be forced into another religion. So yeah. I've been praying anyway. I've been praying, wishing, hoping and stressing. No real sign of anything but I prayed for patience so we shall see.
So about G, my daughters father.... I know he came to help but between the stress and pregnancy hormones, I can't stand him. I don't want him to touch me, breathe on me, eat near me. The shit he says irritates me. Ugh he's so annoying. It hurts his feeling but I can't help it. I'm being a bitch to him I know but I seriously can't help it. The only man who I can deal with is Ej and he's m.i.a. Speaking of pregnancy I am in love with this baby. I was really distant toward my first pregnancy and worried so I didn't get fall in love right away. (I will tell the story of my first pregnancy no worries.) I can't wait to feel him kick and move. I can almost wait to see him though cause I'm not ready for him yet. This week is going by slow. I can't wait till I get to see him(I'm pretty sure its a boy) in my ultrasound! I also can't wait to my next appointment so I can hear his little heart beat. I also need to talk to my Dr. about my obvious depression and anxiety. Someone said the omega 3 vitamins and Vitamin D is good for a mood lifter so I'm going to try them. I don't eat well because I'm so depressed and sad and I honestly want to just lay in bed and forget everything. I have ups and downs. Some days are better than others. G actually had me call a therapist because I need to talk to someone. He thinks its affecting my life. It kind of is. I got really sick at work and threw up because I was so anxious and then I always wanted to cry at work. Then the reason I lost my job I missed the bus because I was distracted by my thoughts of Ej and being really sad, I didn't see the bus roll up. Its a big ass bus I don't know how I didn't see it but I didn't. Anyway I'm trying to concentrate on me and my babies, and not so much of Ej, its hard but I have to. I haven't started my book but, Alena and G are sleeping at his mom's house tonight so hopefully I can get some done. I'm actually going to turn in early tonight. Buenos Noches.

In loving Memory

Our smiling faces smile back at me

A picture of us holding each other close
My adoring smile

Click
Memories of your smile
Your beautiful soul holding eyes
Remebering me running my fingers through you hair
Scroll....
I hover over this picture
Memories of our lips embracing each other
The feel of your hands on my body
The lip biting
The neck biting
Our loves embrace

They're only memories now
Memories that haunt me
Memories that never seem to leave
Memories that are always followed by pain
Memories that need to go away

Loving and Growing
My daughters father has been here for a couple days. Its been weird. He's here to help me deal with my ex better and its a little awkward. No we haven't had sex. Honestly the thought of Ej is the only thing that turns me on and that only makes me even sadder. he hasnt texted me in two days and I havent texted him. Him and Sarah are very into each other and I'm guessing he's just moving on from me completely. It's both heartbreaking and angering but I have to move on from this. I've been thinking about focusing on getting myself together. Trying to get my hair done every couple weeks and keep my toes nice. Waxing when needed. I need to pamper myself because I havent in months.
My daughter is growing up so fast. Shes growing everyday and I see her personality become more apparent. It's awesome. I worry about taking care of two and making sure they're on the right track. I almost never see her cause I'm working and that bothers me. I need a good job with good hours. I'm sorry I'm not the type to settle for just any job unless absolutely neccessary. I can't wait to feel this baby move around and kick. I feel a little bit but sometimes, I'm not a hundred percent sure.
So hopefully I can start writing my book this week. We'll see.
The two lovers
Dear Lord

Songs Explain Everything: Habits
Habits
Today I didn't go to work. The wind chill was in the double negatives. So I called off. I hope I won't get in too much trouble but it's too cold for my daughter and me to be standing outside. I learned that lesson Tuesday. Today had its downfall. You know it's hard being pregnant and your significant other pretty much sticks his middle finger at you and walks away with another bitch. Yeah that shit sucks. So I cried for a really long time today. I've been so messed up about everything my daughters dad is actually coming tommorow to help me out mentally. Did I mention her dad and I were best friends before everything. Well he's leaving base to come out here for me. That is amazing. I'm honestly excited because he makes everything better and he'll help out with my daughter and watch her while I'm at work and I could use the mental break. Now your probably wondering if I'm still in love with him. No I'm not but, I still and always will care about him. Right now I'm still madly in love with my ex but he's made it clear that he has no interest in me or us getting together. So I will use what's left of my heart and love my babies. I'm sure loving them will heal my heart in time. Honestly if it wasn't for EJ being a super jerk I would be more excited about this baby but I'm slowly falling in love with my little nugget and I'm eagerly awaiting for kicks and tumbles. I always felt I could connect with Alena when she started kicking and if I was upset she would move around and press on my tummy and that always made me feel better. EJ sent me this message it was some lyrics:
Never thought that I would feel like this.
Such a mess when I'm in your presence.
I've... Had enough. Think you've been making me sick.
Gotta get you out of my system
It's my house. I think it's time to get out.
It's my soul. It isn't yours anymore. Isn't yours anymore.
Now I'm glad I didn't break down like I have been doing, which I'm proud. Pat on the back to me. Why would you send me this as though all your actions and even some of your text messages in the past two weeks haven't told me enough about how your not mine and you don't want to be around me. Like please stop sending me bull shit.
On another topic I've made a promising to myself that I won't sleep with anyone if we're not together and in love. My sex life gets me in trouble and in situations like this and I'm not about that anymore. Well it's getting close to bed time. I'm hoping for a smooth day tommorow . Good Night blogging world.
