A Word of Advice

Dear Baby,

Yet another doctor's visit today. They were supposed to take my blood but your mommy tried the patience of about everyone in that room, including poor Daddy, who'd never seen me like that. Looks like they'll have to drug me so they can actually do it next time we go.

Baby of mine, never, EVER let a fear get the best of you. If you don't overcome whatever it is that scares you, it will wound your confidence and dampen your happiness. You're stronger than that. I know it, even though I haven't even held you yet. I pray I can become a better example of overcoming fears and be better able to help you if ever you or your siblings get into that kind of situation.

On a happier note, I can feel you move now! I admit, it's more often than I expected, especially when you wake up around 11 o'clock at night, haha! I can't wait until Daddy can feel it, too. I suppose that'll start happening within the next few weeks, maybe even before we find out if your a son or daughter.

I love you very much and hope I can be the mommy you need and the wife your daddy deserves.

Yours,
Mommy
