Dear Baby,
I had a dream last night that I gave birth to you and you came out, wrapped in your placenta like you were in a sleeping bag. Although my subconscious is apparently worried about all the wrong things, thoughts about labor are starting to nudge their way to the front of my mind and I read birth stories with a new perspective. Instead of enjoying them like the ultimate short stories they are (build-up, crescendo, and then happily ever after), I find myself wondering how similar our birth story will be by comparison.
I deeply hope that however it plays out, it will be calm and as trauma-free as I can help it for both of us.
Love,
Mama
