I was strolling past a bunch of newborn babies on the maternity ward when I started thinking about my past. For years I’ve been coasting through life with no real direction. I’ve had a ton of relationships, but none of them have ever really gone anywhere. As I leaned against the glass and looked at all those beautiful faces, I started wondering if I was ever going to be a father.
I realized that I was at a crossroads in my life. Over the next few weeks it seemed like all I heard or thought about were family issues and other profound life experiences. I started remembering back to when I was in high school and my girlfriend’s older sister was dealing with her first trimester pregnancy. She would always tell me how her body was changing, but hearing about this stuff made me uncomfortable. But my girlfriend thought that it was important that we learn these things, and since she and her sister were very close, as was their entire family, I got a firsthand lesson in the child birthing process. I learned about all aspects of this part of life, from the best kind of insurance to ovulation, she really left no stone unturned.
