Dear Baby

I am just about 7 weeks pregnant with you and to everyone else in the world you are insignificant. 7 weeks pregnant is still just starting and most are afraid to share the news just in case something bad were to happen. Most doctors write you off because I am ONLY 7 weeks pregnant. To me 7 weeks is an amazing accomplishment. The most significant thing I have ever done thus far is be 7 weeks pregnant with you. All I can think about is you. I dream about you, I read about you, and I beg for the day I finally get to see my first glimpse of you. So keep growing little baby, soon everyone will see just how amazing you are.
