You are officially 33 weeks grown; that means you only have
7 weeks left until we get to meet you!
Your dad and I are very excited to meet you. Most of all, I am excited to get you out of
my tummy. You are a little over 4 lbs. this
week and already 17 inches long. Wow! I
can’t believe you are inside of my stomach right now. Your dad and I are so proud of you and how
well you have grown. Every time we go to
the doctor, she tells us you are measuring perfectly. That’s right—my son is perfect already!
I want you to know that I love you very much. Even though I have been sick for most of the
last 7 months, I love you and am so glad you are going to join our family in
less than 2 months. I am mostly over the
morning sickness, although this summer heat makes it come back really
fast! I have a hard time getting
comfortable at night because you are so wiggly.
You have a special way of jamming your feet up into my ribs and making
it very hard to relax. You are so good
to kick for your daddy. Anytime I tell
him to put his hand on my belly, you kick and kick. He loves feeling that and says he is jealous
that I get to be with you all day and not him.
I also am one of the
lucky moms who have stretch marks. I
think that’s because you grew so much SO quickly, and you are always moving and
stretching me to the max. We got some
awesome ultrasound pictures. You have
the cutest chubby cheeks. You were so
nice to turn toward us and show us your face, but you kept your hands and a
foot in between your legs, so we couldn’t see anything that confirmed you were
a boy! You better still be a boy—we have all boy clothes now!
I am so nervous to be your mom. I keep asking your dad if he thinks I am
ready to be a mom. He always replies with
the exact same thing, “No, you’re not ready! But in 2 months, you will be.” I hope he is right. I can’t wait to be your mommy, and I promise
I will do the very best that I can.
