Dear First Trimester,
I know that you and I have had our ups and downs but overall, I appreciate the role you have played. I realize we got off to a bad start...what with the tears, mixed emotions and of course, the few weeks of nausea you thought you'd throw my way. And as much as I appreicted the nausea fading quickly, you went ahead and replaced it with exhaustion, teenage acne and migraine headaches. You are tricky.
However, it would be rude if I didn't mention your good sides, like allowing me to see my baby's heartbeat for the first time at 6 weeks and then again at 10 weeks. These random acts of kindness really made up for your overall mean-spirted nature (I know what you did to my friend Jordan)!
But it is with no regrets that I say goodbye. I would be lying if I said I haven't heard excellent things about your wiser, prettier older sister, Second Trimester. From what I hear, she's a treat! Something about more energy, no nausea or exhaustion. Oh! And she even tells you the sex of your baby and causes your baby to kick so you can feel him/her. You have to admit, she sounds just splendid!
One last thing, if you could please take all this anxiety with you on your way, it would be dooley noted. Until we meet again, let's try and think about how you can improve for my next lil' baby.
But the truth is, you did keep my baby safe and well and for that I must say, you're not so bad First Tri!
Sincerely,
"Punkin's Mommy"
