- I write this not only to You my unborn, but to your father too - so he will
- be able to better understand what is happening inside me. We had tried for
- almost a year to have a baby. And every month when the bleeding has come, I
- have felt grief. Of course we have shared a lot of love when trying, but
- still, I have felt bad.
- But things changed. One day, I threw up without any apparent reason. I
- had been feeling sick all day. At first, I thought it was just my mind
- playing tricks on me, but I went and did a test anyway. It went blue, which
- meant that it was positive! I started to shake. I felt so warm inside, this
- was a miracle. I fell down on my knees and thanked the mighty lord. I was so
- happy, I hope You felt it too.
- My breast changed shape, by now they are really big (not though they were
- small before). They are aching, but from the moment I knew You were coming,
- I welcomed the pain. I did threw up a lot. It was not nice, and I would lie
- if I said that liked it. But it showed that something was happening inside
- of me. But I worried about a lot of things. Like, that my body did not keep
- enough food for You to grow properly. But they say that it is no problem,
- and that I will forget this and all other bad and hard times. I hope so.
- I cannot say that I have loved You from the very minute I began to sense
- your presence. There were a lot of times when I were running from the sofa
- to the bathroom to be sick, and really wondered what I were up to. Not that
- I have regret anything though. I have NEVER regret anything about You,
- your creation, your existence. Oh no, I look forward to your entrance.
- Sure, sometimes I am kind of frightened. I know that You are going to change
- everything in my life. But as times were then, I was only aware of the
- physical reactions. But I knew that there would be more.
-
- Now, however, I have started to gain weight again. It feels good. I promise
- You that food taste a lot better if You have not been able to eat for a
- couple of months. This has naturally led to that my tummy has started to
- grow. I think I like this - even though I'm sure I'm going to be dead sick
- and tired of it in the end. Speaking of my tummy, people in my surroundings
- have started to poke on 'You'. I guess You would like to know that You are
- responsible for a lot of hugs and 'pokes'. They say You'll get tired of all
- this poking after a while. I guess I will too.
- A few days ago, your father and I saw the first picture of You. Well, it
- wasn't all that exciting that I thought it would be. The staff that
- developed the picture were quite stressed. But, of course, it felt good
- to know You are okay. They told us You were waving to us and your father
- said he saw it. I didn't see that, however, but I could see your little
- heart and head. And that You had two arms and two legs. They said You were
- kicking to. I'm longing to feel it. It was quite a relief to know that You
- are 'alive and kicking'. From time to time, I have been worried. You seem a
- lot closer to us now, when we have actually seen You. It's just a few months
- left until You will be here. I hope we will be enough prepared.
- Even though there is a lot of time left before You will show up, an hour
- won't pass without You being on my mind. I have started to notice how You
- move around inside of me. It is great. Your father is trying to feel and to
- hear You too. He puts his ear to my belly, even though I tell him it's a bit
- early. I'm not sure if he longs as much as I do. Perhaps it's different for
- fathers.
- I read a lot. Now mostly about how babies grow. And about what is going
- to happen when the time comes for You to enter 'the outside world'. People
- ask me if I'm scared, but I'm not - yet. Right now I'm only so happy You are
- on your way. I have started to knit You a sweater. I hope You are going to
- like it. And grandma is buying You a lot of stuff. There are a lot of things
- You need, even though You will be pretty small in the beginning.
- Today, I listened to your heartbeats now. WOW, that was amazing! It felt
- like the sound absorbed me. Now I know, once again, that You are okay. I
- cannot help it, but I'm still worried that something will go wrong. But I
- guess that is normal.
- Sometimes, I lie awake at night, just enjoying the feeling of your
- movements. You kick a lot in the early morning hours. I usually get very
- pissed if someone wakes me up at four AM, but for You, my soon-to-be
- firstborn, it's okay.
