Full term
Last night, Bella would not get off my belly no matter how many times you kicked her.
Maybe she already knows that you’re going to be best friends, just like she knew you were there before I did.
Your room is (pretty much) ready, your clothes and bedding are washed, just waiting for you.
I’m going to miss feeling you dance and move around from inside my belly, but can’t wait to dance with you around the kitchen, holding you and smelling that perfect baby smell.
Your dad is getting really excited to meet you, too. I love feeling him talk to you, and the way you nudge back in your own little conversation. Last night you had the hiccups, and we both laughed as we felt them. I also prayed that your hiccups don’t sound anything like mine… they’re a little loud and scary.
I dream about you almost every night now, and can’t believe that in a few weeks I’ll be able to look into your basinet and see the little face I’ve been thinking about for so long.
Keep growing strong and healthy, and come whenever you’re ready. We’re ready for you, and I’m so excited for your birthday. It’s going to be an experience that will change our lives, and I can’t wait for you to meet all of the people that already love you so much.
See you soon <3

Awww, I love this! Gave me the teary eyes. 🙂
This just gave me chills in the best of ways. I’m so happy for you both (and Bella!)
Oh my gosh I’m over here just fighting back tears. This is so sweet! 🙂
What an adorable post! We can’t wait to meet you too, little Fitnessista 🙂
OH goodness I got teary eyed reading this! I love that you wrote this to your daughter! I am soo unbelievably excited for you on this new adventure.
What a heart-warming post. 🙂
i am SO pumped to “meet” this little lady. (hopefully in real life one day, too!) she is going to be so loved.
Please stop making me cry, kthxbai! <3 <3 <3 <3 (One for all three, plus Bell.)
This was so beautiful!!! Congrats on making it to full term so healthy and happy! I know that might seem like a weird thing to be congratulating but I think that’s an incredible achievement!
That is very sweet. Im excited for you
Auntie Meg is crying.
Made me tear up!!! Oh my gosh. This was so sweet!
so very sweet…
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful post! She is very fortunate to have parents who love her so much already!! I’ve been enjoying reading your posts and can’t wait to “meet” her as well…
Thats the best, feeling them move around and how they seem to have “conversations” with you through their movements. I didn’t get to experience that up to full term, my baby was born last week at 26 weeks and when I’m visiting him in the nbicu in the evenings and I’m talking to him and he is moving and kicking its like he is remembering those nightly conversations when it seemed like he was talking back through his movements in my belly.
I have loved reading about your pregnancy and hope you have a fulfilling birth experience.
prayers to your sweet baby <3
sending love to your baby and family <3 i'm thinking about you.
My daughter was born last year at 24 weeks (1lb 2.5oz), and she is now a fiesty (remarkably healthy) little 16 month old! Aside from her small size, you’d never guess she’d been an early bird! Babies are amazingly strong and can overcome things that the toughest adult never could. Best of luck <3
Holy crap, I’m gonna cry.
This was just the sweetest thing. You are going to be the BEST mama.
<3 that is so precious. lol. now you're making me think towards when I have a little bun in the oven. haha.
teary… lucky baby girl 🙂
This is beautiful. Can’t wait to “meet” her!!
Love this post. So beautiful. I can’t wait to meet her via blog!!
What Diana said… 🙂 Hope your labor goes well! Can’t wait to see pics of your baby girl. 🙂
LOVE this post! Made me teary! It truly is wonderful and you are so right in that your world is about to change…for the better! 🙂

So cute Gina! I have this funny feeling that I’m going to check your blog any day now, and there will be no post at the time you usually post. Then I’ll know for sure!
So, so moving. Made me cry a bit! Congratulations on making it to full term!
