Repeating Nightmares!

Its been a long time right baby? Life has been busy for Mom.
Well not pleasantly busy, but stress fully busy. Papas accident, and the subsequent events, his parents scorning, financial issues there are tonnes of things on my mind now. The only time I smile is when I feel your kicks little one.
I wanted a nest for you, a cute little one of our own. But events pertaining to that has left mummy numb with pain. I am worried how all of this affects you. I drain myself out trying to help Papa and make things smoother for him. But I dont think he even realises what it does to me. I was stupid so far baby, to be putting his health and concern ahead of yours. Mummy promises that wont happen again. You will be my first priority. And that is the reason mummy is contemplating staying away from him for the rest of the period that am carrying you. Papa is upset with his parents and he feels guilty about that. So he extends his hatred to mummy and my parents too. That way he hides from his guilt of being angry with his own parents. The happiest time of mummys life has turned out to be a nightmare. I often wonder if God couldnt have given me this tiny little time with you atleast to be a happy period. For your sake, for a healthy Baby!!!!

Apologies little one

Tiny One,

Mommy has been having a couple of rough days lately. At work, sometime with your papa and now with a few other people. I am really concerned of the effect all this must be having on you. I know today was one of the worst days for you. But I promise no matter what I will never put you through that ever again while you are inside me. And if that means having to stay away from your daddy, then that be the case. For me you matter more than anything now. I want you to be strong physically and emotionally. And if I keep crying and upsetting myself like this then how will you be strong?
Mummy is still not sure what happened today afternoon. Having you inside me puts my hormones into major swing. I get upset very easily. But having you inside me also gives the strength to live, the need for staying alive for you little life. Will I tell Papa what happened today? I dont know. Mummy hates to be compared and to be compared with people who I believe are only superficial is very humiliating for me. Mummys love for your daddy is the only only string that keeps me here with him. Sleep now dear. I will try my best to keep myself cheerful and happy.

Spring Kunje:-)

Mommy and Papa saw (and heard) you last Wednesday. Both of us were elated, seeing you jumping all around :-). So we will call you "spring kunje" or "spring kunjus" You said "hi" to papa-ittle one(ummmaaa)...Doctor aunty said that you are doing fine. Your mommy dear is feeling much better now.

Yesterday we went and saw your aunty and your mommy's other relatives . There was a small kunju vaava there. Papa gave the small bundle a lot of kisses..When will you also be with papa, to receive my kisses? :-)....

Today is papa's birthday. Say "Happy birthday" to papa:-).

We have the following names for you: Aditya or Aryan if you are a prince. Aditi, Saaya, or Arya if you are a princess :-)

Now you sleep , my very ittle and tiny one..ummaa

Letter to Papa

Papa,

Where are you? Why have you not written to me for a long time? Are you busy? Papa, please be pleasant with Mama always. Also please dont worry about your job now. When time is good, you will get the right job for you. I am proud of you Papa since you are consistently and persistently trying and not giving up hope. Ok Papa Time for me to sleep..

yaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnn.... goodnight.

The wonder of a New Life

Small baby,

Momma is waiting expectantly to hear news about you this week. How big have you grown? Do you sense when Papa talks to you or when I pat you? You are one hungry baby. I have to keep eating every two hours to keep you happy. I have started growing a tummy and it feels different now. I am not so scared to actually enjoy carrying you anymore. You little life has changed my priorities, my interests and the direction in which our life is going. I seem to have developed a tolerance for many a things in life and lost tolerance with your Papa. I trouble him so much so that I can be comfortable and he does it all quietly for your sake. With the little you growing inside me slowly, I am pampered by everyone around me. But am too lost in the wonder of carrying you, little life inside me to realise what is going on around me.

Ittle Human:-)

Now you are a thumb-sized cute human being...Your small fingers are formed-and you can touch and feel mommy:-).

Next Wednesday your mommy will have a NT scan done, to check out how u are doing. Papa is very excited, to get to see you. Your granny and uncle are coming day after tomm, and ur grandpa will also come week after next....

papa is going to protect u and mummy from the solar eclipse day after tomm...

ok then my chweet darling..bye...

Aye You Cute One!

Aye My darling - Papa has not written to you for long-chorry!(It was nice talking to you over the phone) Papa was busy taking care of your mummy. Mummy's friend Sarojini has come over to our home to cook food for your mommy. Your granny(Papa's mom) and uncle (Papa's Bro) would be visiting us after 2 weeks. Mommy's Pa and Ma, were here 2 weeks back. Mommy's Pa said "Happy New Year" to you too.

Your Aunty (Mom's Sis) promised to visit us on New Year's eve, but did not come :-(. She has promised to visit us later - Do give her a few of your karate kicks, as punishment:-)

Do you know that you are now -6 months old?!:-). We are in 2010, when you will bring in light into our lives!! The entire world (from East to West), celebrated in anticipation of your arrival!!-You are making waves on Earth, even before your arrival:-)..Way to go my little kiddo..clap, clap, clap, clap:-)

Mommy and Papa have to go to office tomorrow, after a loooong vacation :-(. Papa is trying hard to find a newer and better office!!

Tomorrow is your mommy dear's birthday. Papa will pamper her even more, and you too should give her lot of kisses in the womb!!

One last question for the day: Endna itrra kunju? Eppoyya Valliyya aava?
