MY FIRST LETTER

My dear,

It was like yesterday I got to know that I was pregnant! Today, as I am nearing my due date, it feels like I have been pregnant forever, as I can’t wait any more to hold you in my arms and carry you in my heart for the rest our lives.

Till now, you have been at your best. I have not had any complaints or complications regarding my pregnancy except few acceptable symptoms which I don’t want to crib about. As days pass by, I get freaked out even with a small change in my system wondering if it’s something that is normal during the last stage of pregnancy or if it is something to be worried or concerned about! Each and every small thing concerns me these days. I wish I were a super-woman who could take control over everything that involves you.

After my marriage, the next great thing that happened in my life is YOU! We have been waiting for you for the past 2 years. Thus, the last 39 weeks has been the best period ever in my life; a period which is just the beginning of a lifelong journey! No sleepless nights or cramps or muscle pull can influence my anxiety or eagerness in looking forward to the D ‘day. Come what may! There can be no pain that can survive the pleasure of your kicks. I desperately wanted you before you were conceived. I have started loving you already even before you are born. Now, am ready to die an hour before you are here! No words can explain/express my feelings for you. And I don’t want to be successful in expressing it as I will spend the rest of my time in thinking and will stop feeling. I want to cherish each and every moment of you within me and with me.

Let the Almighty shower His blessings on you. There is nothing more I have to ask. Come soon!

Love,

Mom.
