Celebrated Moms: Mommy To Be Shares Letter to Her Unborn Son

Our mommy to be is balancing pregnancy, recently getting married and a PhD program. Bella is due in late March 2012 and looks forward to sharing weekly updates of her pregnancy and hectic life.

Bella is nervous about adjusting to motherhood and being a wife simultaneously, she accepts and welcomes the challenge. She looks forward to balancing her career goals and all the wonders of motherhood including sleepless nights.

To My Unborn Child: Letter #1This is the first in a series of letters that I intend to write to the baby. This letter was written on August 26, 2011. I was still in the first trimester and hadn’t found out the sex. Only a few people knew about our impending arrival, and we hadn’t even told our parents yet.Dear Baby S:On Saturday, July 16, 2011, I took 5 pregnancy tests and discovered you were on the horizon. On Thursday, August 11, 2011, I heard your heartbeat for the first time. Every since that day I have been trying to write this first letter to you. There are truly no words to express how happy your father and I are about your impending arrival. We both love you so much already and you are only the size of a grape :) .

Right now…
I hope that you are safe inside my womb. I hope that you will be healthy and there will be no complications. I hope that I can be strong and have a stress free pregnancy, so that you are healthy. I hope that you let me eat fried chicken and cheeseburgers without puking… oh and french fries. Mommy loves french fries!!!

In the future…
I hope that I will be a wonderful mom, and that you are never disappointed in me. I hope that you we will never go to bed angry at one another. I hope that you will always remember that you are loved and that both of your parents will move heaven and earth for your happiness.

Right now and in the future…
I promise to always be there for you. I promise to always listen even when I don’t agree. I promise to raise you in a home full of love and peace. I promise to always be there when you fall, but to back off when you need me too. I promise to love you no matter what, you are already everything I have ever dreamed of and more than I could ever imagine.

Love Always,
Your Mommy
