Dear Baby,

You are now 3 months in my tummy… You came as a surprise for us, do you know that baby? We never thought you’d come so early. That only means you are truly God’s gift. But we’ve always wanted you. Always.

Yesterday, your dad heard your heartbeat inside me for the first time. He can’t help to keep smiling. It was the second for me. However, regardless how many times we hear you, the feelings are always the same: elated, ecstatic, overwhemled, excited, grateful. Hearing you everytime, feels like a confirmation that you now exists, baby. You are really there aren’t you? Oh, we are all so excited to meet you! And take pictures of you!

Your daddy and I are doing everything to keep my body healthy for you so you could be healthy, too. So don’t worry okay, I’ll keep you safe, and I’m doing everything I could to do that.

We still don’t know if you’re going to be a boy or a girl, but we’ll find out soon enough. In the meantime, I will help you here on the outside world to grow up. I will wait for you patiently and will be with you every step of the way. When you’re old enough to hear me through my tummy, I’ll talk to you, I’ll sing to you, I’ll read to you, and I’ll make you hear music to make you smart. We are so ready for you baby, and so many people around us are excited too. We haven’t seen you yet, but we already love you! I want you to know that this early. For me and you dad, you are the most important thing to us now.

I Love You,

Mom
