Dear Baby Boy in My Belly,

I know that I have spent this whole pregnancy telling you to "stay inside!" It is true that every night before sleep I religiously imagined my cervix closed and I imagined you inside unable to get out because my cervix was double triple locked. Believe me, it has taken some getting used to for me to imagine that cervix door unlocked, so I can understand that it may be hard for you to know that IT IS OKAY TO COME OUT NOW. Actually, not only is it okay, I am requesting that you PLEASE COME OUT NOW. I am a little tired of being pregnant and I am very anxious to meet you. So. If you don’t mind, can you please come out now?
