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

A Tiny Reminder
Putting clothes away in my daughter's closet, I came across a newborn sized diaper. Not sure why I hung onto one, but I think I liked the reminder of how small she started out . Fresh and new and oh so tiny. I picked it up and held it to my chest for a moment. Thoughts of a new little boy or girl to join our little tribe (although it won't be so little anymore), excited me. Remembering that new baby smell, teeny hands and feet, rose petal soft skin to endlessly kiss throughout day and night.......heavenly.
I still have days when this unexpected pregnancy scares me and makes me doubt my ability to do this all again right now. But that fierce Mother-bear feeling takes over and I know things will be ok. Everyone needs a tiny reminder once in a while. They can come in many forms. Pay attention and you just may learn something, even from a diaper.
