Mummy’s a whale
You look like you’re coming soon
But not yet, still two more months.
Tiredness is overwhelming
I lie on the sofa and rest
You roll and kick and squirm inside.
The fear is still there, but also an undercurrent of excitement and joy that we will see your face soon
Daddy’s eyes? Mummy’s smile?
Baby boy, we’ll see you in a little while.
