Waiting...and waiting

It seems like all there is to do is wait in the process of trying to have kids and in actually being pregnant. There's waiting to ovulate. Waiting to take a pregnancy test. Waiting for your period. Waiting for your first appointment. Waiting for all of your other appointments. Waiting to try again after a miscarriage. Waiting month after month for that positive pregnancy test again. Waiting again until that first doctor's appointment. Waiting to hear the heartbeat. Waiting to be into a safer zone of the pregnancy. Waiting for the ultrasound to see the heartbeat and make sure everything is developing okay. Waiting to find out the sex (if you choose to do so). Waiting to find out if you have gestational diabetes. Waiting for labor. I know all of the waiting will be worth it--no doubt--but right now it just seems like it's all just waiting until the next thing without much chance to enjoy everything in between.
