Are you ok, baby?
This is a poem I wrote earlier, as a way to keep my mind off the ever growing “what’s going on inside my body?” Feeling .
Are you ok, baby?
My doctors said you’re fine
But you’re not theirs, you’re mine
Are you ok, baby?
It’s been two weeks since we checked
My pregnancy is “normal” but it doesn’t feel like that
Are you ok, baby?
I worry so much
It’s all because I love you, and we can’t even touch
Are you ok, baby?
They tell me “don’t stress”
How can I ignore this growing feeling in my chest?
Are you ok, baby?
“This pregnancy isn’t like the last”
I tell my self over and over, hoping the worry will pass
Are you ok, baby?
Please keep growing
You meant so much to me, before the whole word was knowing
Are you ok, baby?
I cant lose another
I never got to meet your older sister or brother
Are you ok, baby?
I cant wait to push
to hold you to my chest and get that first look
Are you ok, baby?
Will you grow big and strong?
Or will I find out in a few weeks something was wrong all along?
Are you ok, baby?
“It’s fine, honey, don’t worry”
I cant ignore the worry, our last one was gone in a hurry
Are you ok, baby?
I love you so much
I know that one day soon, I’ll embrace you with my touch
Are you ok, baby?
I’m sorry if I stress
I know you feel what I feel, and it isn’t always the best
Are you ok, baby?
It’s me, your mom
I love you so much, I’ll see you soon, it won’t be long
