I saw and felt you kick me! It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The first time it happened when I had my hand on my belly, I felt this little push. Then last night I could feel you pushing from the inside and when I looked down I saw my belly suddenly raise up and go back down in a small spot. It was like Aliens! I hate to sound like a big crybaby, but that is what I did, I cried. I did. I’ll admit it. I might have also cried because I missed your Papa. He left for Australia for a few days for work and it’s the first time we’ve been apart in 8 months. However, I have a babysitter watching me and making sure I am okay. His name is Claude and he likes to snuggle.
He snores a little, but so does your Dad, sometimes, so I don’t mind.
This is what size they say you are:
and this is what size I am:
Tomorrow I get to see Dr. Dwight. I can’t wait. Your Aunt Vanessa wants to come with me just so she can see him again. He delivered her son Felix and she misses Dr. Dwight. The best pediatrician on the East Side IS Heidi Fleiss’s father and his name is Dr. Fleiss. He met my friends and their newborn at his office at 2:30 in the morning. That is the kind of doctor he is. We need him. I hope we get him. Might be another HMO clusterf&*%^ but I’ll do my best to break the code.
I want only the best for you- or what is best for you- or both.
I love you and miss your Dad terribly right now. He is the only person in the world that has ever made me feel so loved, seen, heard, appreciated, special, important, and wanted in this life. He makes my heart sing. You just kicked me, so I know you miss him too. We are very lucky to have him.
