Dear Hunter,
Today was your due date 1 year ago. 14/8/2020. I was all belly in my pregnancy with you. I loved every feeling of being pregnant. Just knowing that you were with me everywhere I went made me feel the utmost content. Besides your daddy, I’d never had anyone love or understand me like him and you. I already knew you were special the first time I saw you on that first ultrasound at 9 weeks.
Every kick made me smile. You made everyday exciting. When I was working as a nurse in theatres in Coffs Harbour, each day I would stop and just feel you moving, or I’d listen to your heartbeat with a stethoscope.
This time one year ago I was so excited to meet you, everyday I was waking up wondering if today would be the day. I still didn’t know if you were a boy or a girl yet, although I did have a big feeling I knew you were a boy. I craved way too much protein and meat through your pregnancy.
You held in there until the 20th of August. Only 6 days late. Who could blame you, it’s so warm inside my belly.
Fun fact: before pregnancy I’d eat 2 avocados a day. During pregnancy I couldn’t eat them, as the smell would make me feel sick. But you actually love avocados, it’s your favourite food at the moment which I’m glad as I thought you might have been turned off them.
Dear Hunter
