6 Weeks

Dear Baby,

Well, it's official. You're in there. At least that's what all the tests keep telling me. For about 2 weeks, I've thought I might be pregnant. I've been really tired. And feeling really sick. Mornings are almost unbearable. But it's OK. As long as you're in there. And growing like you should.

My breasts are HUGE and sore! They really do hurt. I keep trying to dress in clothes to hide. But I'm not doing so well there. Today, I took a few pregnancy tests. All confirming what I already knew. Now, I just need to tell your daddy. And all of our friends and family.

Your parents have made a bit of a mess out of their lives. It's not your fault. Please don't think it is. I already love you so much. Even while I'm throwing up my guts of the toilet. Because baby, you're special. The only one like you. Thank you for growing in your mommy. And staying safe. Your only job for the next few months is to grow strong and be healthy. Leave the rest up to me! I promise, I'm trying to make this better.

XOXO Your Mommy
