Hi.
Baby, in there.
I am one day shy from being 17 weeks pregnant. I have not felt that much anticipated 1st movement of yours yet. You are taking your sweet time, I guess and I will wait.
Your brother, first said hello to me at 15 weeks. Your sister, at an early 12 weeks. When will you say hi?
I just want to feel you and to know you are ok in there.
At the end of my (or our) 18th week we will have a level two ultrasound to check us out. If I don't hear from you by then, at least I will be able to see you soon.
I am most anxious to see if you are healthy and developing as you should be. I pray that you are. We are also going to find out if you are a boy or a girl. We didn't find out with your brother or sister but with you I can't wait to find out.
So, please know that I would love a little tap from you soon to let me know you are saying hello. And remember....I love you already.
Love,
Mama
Life is one wild ride, isn't it? The greatest surprise of your life may be just around the corner. Join me as I do my best to embrace a new life. Mama to a 4 yr. old, 3 yr. old & a wee one that just turned one. An unexpected/risky pregnancy with the last, that pushed me to the limits on faith, love, & at times...sanity! Follow the adventures & awakenings of this little tribe I am proud to call my family as we try to find our place in the sun!
With Violet, my 4th kiddo (now 2 years old), I remember being hyper anxious about feeling her flutter. Like you, my other babies made themselves known early on. I remember giving myself the greatest migraine in the 2 weeks prior to our ultrasound with Violet because I was certain (despite her strong heartbeat)that there was something wrong with her. But a few days before our ultrasound (at 18weeks), I felt the unmistakable wallop of little limbs. And despite all of my obsessing over everything that could possibly go wrong during the ultrasound- she was perfectly fine. I know that you have different concerns, for different reasons. Hang in there, mama.
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your story with me. I will just have to be patient.
DeleteI think that you've just got a very chill little guy or gal growing in there. You'll feel that tap tap tap, soon I'm sure. :) xo
ReplyDeleteI am sure I will too.....in time. This one certainly has his or her own agenda! :)
