September

My dear Tavish,
it's September, and we've had a few visits with the doctors and the midwives. The midwives said we need to transfer our care to the specialist. That makes mommy a little sad, because she was really hoping that she would have birth at the birth center. But you know what? All that matters is that you are taken care of. I want the absolute best for you, and the best possible chance for you to make it into this world not just alive, but strong. If that means that I see you for the first time in a hospital, then I'm happy to do it :).

The doctor we've been seeing was recommended to us by friends. He has a good reputation for knowing how to make the best of a "high risk" pregnancy. His way of talking to us isn't the nicest, but he's supposed to be the best. We love you so much Tavish. We want to give you the best possible chance.

I don't know what else to tell you right now, so I'm just going to remind you again how much I love  you sweet baby boy, and how I look forward to holding you in my arms. You are a miracle, little one, and I know you're going to show everyone just how special you are.

Love,
Mom
