Last week we took Pia for her 2 month well baby appt. She weighs 12lbs, 4ozs and is 24" long.
Her Ped was palpating her tummy and said that her liver is enlarged. We had to go for bloodwork on Thursday. I'm playing the waiting game. We hope to hear something today. I'm calling after lunch.
I've been a nervous wreck for almost a week now. The very thought of there being something wrong with my sweet baby girl terrifies me. It's almost too much to handle.
People keep telling me that they are sure it's nothing - easy to say when it's not your child. I know they mean well, and are trying to help, but it almost belittles my fear, you know? Like I'm worrying for nothing, making more of it than I should.
She's MY daughter. I'm allowed to be scared. I'm allowed to lay awake at night, wondering if we're at the beginning of a long, scary road. Wondering if her getting her blood drawn was the first of many. Wondering what the fuck I would do if she died. I don't know that I could handle that.
Maybe I am just torturing myself. I guess it's my right as a mom.

My RAK Project
RAK = Random Acts of Kindness
This is a weekly blog entry I've started. It's a call to be kind. Each week I'll issue a challenge, simple and very do-able. We so often get caught up in the day to day of life, we forget simple kindness.
So, I'd love to get as many people involved in this as possible. I want to hear what you think of my challenge, suggest new challenges, and your experience with each weeks challenge. If your story is a really great one, I'll share here.
You can see all RAK posts here.
You can see all the great people out there RAKing here. Make sure you peek at their blogs, and show some love!
