I’m surrounded by women undertaking the same journey, many of which have their mothers. I’ve attempted to keep my breathing even at gender reveals as I listen to other women discuss their joy that they can have their mother and partner in the delivery room. I’ve smiled and congratulated them as their mother’s toasted their new grandchild. I’ve sobbed on the car ride home feeling jealous and broken. I should be grateful for all that I have. I’m so lucky and yet it doesn’t fill that hole she left. Every new piece of information we share with family never elicits her reaction and I yearn for it more than the twenty others I received.
