Dear beautiful friends, wonderful family.
Yes, we know. Things are taking their time. And that’s ok, right? They say the best things take time. Like a good meal.. you know something that has been simmering for hours always tastes better than something microwaved for 2 minutes? Yeah. I pride myself on being a good cook.
But you know, the phonecalls, the SMS’s, the emails, the Facebook posts all asking where the baby is, really isn’t helping. I say that with love – we love you, and want you around us when baby is here and safe, but right now, the pressure is starting to cause cracks! Being asked ‘OMG ARE YOU GOING INTO HOSPITAL SOON?’ also causes issues. It’s pretty hurtful, actually. And pointless.. no one I know is sick – why do I need to visit them?
So I give you this:
Overdue
My baby’s not a library book
so she’s not overdue
My baby don’t take long to cook
coz she’s not veggie stewMy baby’s not an elephant
and I’m not fit to burst
The time and date aren’t relevant
we’re blessed with days, not cursedMy baby can’t read dates as yet
because she’s very new
So there’s no cause to fuss and fret
if she don’t come on cueSo stop your worry,
stop your asking,
There’s no hurry
we’re relaxing
In this golden pregnant time
this pause, which is just hers and mine.
You leave us be
we are just fineAuthor unknown
And dont read into the ’she’ – NO, we dont know!
So till we have some real news to share.. sit tight and be patient. Be guaranteed that you will find out! It’s not like we wouldn’t be busting with pride and broadcasting it! You wont be left out! We just need to relax and sit tight in our little bubble, and get ready.
