dear baby,

it has been a couple of weeks since i have written so this may be a long post. i am currently 30 weeks pregnant with you! that means only 10 weeks (give or take) until you will be here! i cannot believe how quickly time is going! it is so exciting! i have gotten a few more things for you, well, sort of. they are mostly for me, but you will use them and that makes me just as excited.

i had my 30 week appt. today and it went well. i am still having a hard time gaining weight and that didn’t make the midwife very happy. she told me that i need to start eating a lot, although i already feel like i am eating all the time. i need to eat more fruits, veggies, protein, and carbs. so basically everything.

i am still throwing up every once in a while. i am grateful that it is very irregular now but it is still not fun. my belly is getting bigger and bigger and i feel like you are getting very crowded in there. i can feel you moving all the time and it feels more like you are turning around and around instead of just kicking me. i can now feel you hiccuping every once now and again which is the funniest feeling. my whole belly shakes and it makes me laugh. it took me a while to realize what was going on because i hadn’t really noticed the hiccups before. it is exciting to be feeling so many different things and feeling you grow bigger and bigger.

your daddy will start his job at apple next week. he is very excited about it. it will be a very good thing for our family and although he will be gone a lot more and probably be even more busy than he is now, we know that it is for the better. we have been so blessed in our entire marriage and we are so blessed to have you coming to join us.

september is almost halfway over already and i’m sure the next couple of months are going to go by just as fast. we are so excited to meet you and know that you have already blessed our lives so much. we love you so much, little one.

see you soon.

xo.

love,

mama.
