dear baby,

yesterday was a very long day. i am getting to be very uncomfortable at work and sitting in my chair is extremely difficult and makes for a very long day. but, it was also a very good day because i had a dr. appt and was able to hear your heartbeat which is definitely one of my most favorite things in the whole world. it is just a magical thing to hear your heart beating and know that you are happy and healthy and getting ready to meet us!

i got some good news at my appt. i am dilated to 3cm and about 80% effaced and your little head is exactly where it needs to be for delivery. so, we are just waiting on you, little one. whenever you are ready, we are ready for you. i have been having a lot of braxton hicks and i hoping that means that you are about ready to come cause i sure am ready to have you here.

i think yesterday was kind of a shock for your dad. he wasn’t expecting me to be dilated at all and when we heard that i was at a 3, he was a little surprised and is now very much anticipating you coming. he really wanted me to stay home from work today but i am still feeling good and although sitting at work is hard, it is nice to get out of the house. i’m sure the day would go by very slow if i was at home, but then again, maybe it would go faster because i wouldn’t be shifting around in an uncomfortable chair all day.

your dad is going to take such good care of you. he already loves you so much and i know that he will take such good care of us. he is the greatest thing to ever happen to me and knowing that he and i created you, my whole world is about to be complete.

i love you so much baby. please some soon. maybe tomorrow on a very good friday. 22 is the best number. i hope you think so too.

love,

mama.
