14 weeks

Dear Baby,

How are you?  I wonder sometimes how you spend the day.  Are you kicking all day and practicing water aerobics, or are you a snoozer, and just enjoy floating around inside of me?  I thought I felt a little kick today while I was driving home from the grocery store.  I had the seat belt pulled tight against my waist, and I could have sworn I felt something pushing back against it. The doctor says I will be able to feel you more often soon- around 16 weeks!  I can't wait!

Love,
Mommy

13 weeks

Dear Baby,

We got to hear your heartbeat last week!  The nurse said it sounded good and strong- 169 beats per minute.  I'm starting to feel a lot less sick during the day.  Hopefully I will be back to normal soon.  We just found your Aunt Lori will be having a baby girl.  Now I'm more anxious than ever to find out whether you will be our son or daughter.  We think about you all the time and can't wait to meet you!

Love,
Mommy

12 weeks

Dear Baby,

I am almost 12 weeks today (11 weeks and 6 days)!  I have been waiting for this since the moment we found out I was pregnant.  As long as everything goes well at our doctor's appointment on Friday, I think I we can breathe a  sigh of relief.  I'm not feeling very well today, but most mornings I'm starting to feel a little bit better.  You are already starting to show a little in my tummy!  I'm not wearing maternity clothes yet, but I know it won't be long.  We can't wait for you to join us!

Love,
Mommy

11 weeks

Dear Baby,

I got to sneak a tiny glimpse of you last week!  It was so exciting! I couldn't see much, but I could see a big mound of baby, and that there was only one of you.  Next week we will go listen to your heartbeat.  It's so interesting how different this pregnancy has been for me already.  I was so, so sick with your brother, but this time around, I haven't vomited once!  I still feel very sick much of the day, but if I keep some food in my stomach, it's under control.  Also, you have been making me very tired.  I need a nap almost everyday.  Jack talks about you constantly.  He is convinced that you will be his sister.  We will find out soon enough!

Love,
Mommy
