Hi Mummy, I know you don't know me yet but I will lay here hidden until you do, I have so much growing to do but I’m already counting down the days until I get to see your face Hi Mummy, I’m bigger now and with each beat of your heart I echo, you found out about me today, I could feel the happiness running through your body Hi Mummy, you told daddy today, he shouted at you and hit you, you were crying as you sang to me don’t worry when I’m born I will protect you, like you're protecting me Hi Mummy, look at me I have fingers and toes just like you, You had an ultrasound today and I waved at you with my tiny hands, I felt your laugh brightening my world Hi Mummy, I heard you and daddy shouting, you haven't spoken to me since or laid a soft hand upon my tiny head, I feel completely alone Is everything okay? Hi Mummy, I’m scared You touched my head last night it was the first time in weeks, but it was different as you were crying as you said “I’m sorry baby, I love you” Hi Mummy, what’s happening today? Everything is so quiet and rushed, You haven't stopped crying, I heard you mutter the words “hospital” and “baby” Help Mummy, I want it to stop! I can’t move away from the pain, With each ever slowing beat of my heart I am jolted further away from you, Through tears you cried “I’m sorry” Hi Mummy, I’m safe now I couldn't wait to see your face but you never wanted to see mine, I hope you are happy now, I miss you mummy and I still love you

Hi Mummy
Hi Mummy, I know you don't know me yet but I will lay here hidden until you do, I have so much growing to do but I’m already counting down the days until I get to see your face Hi Mummy, I’m bigger now and with each beat of your heart I echo, you found out about me today, I could feel the happiness running through your body Hi Mummy, you told daddy today, he shouted at you and hit you, you were crying as you sang to me don’t worry when I’m born I will protect you, like you're protecting me Hi Mummy, look at me I have fingers and toes just like you, You had an ultrasound today and I waved at you with my tiny hands, I felt your laugh brightening my world Hi Mummy, I heard you and daddy shouting, you haven't spoken to me since or laid a soft hand upon my tiny head, I feel completely alone Is everything okay? Hi Mummy, I’m scared You touched my head last night it was the first time in weeks, but it was different as you were crying as you said “I’m sorry baby, I love you” Hi Mummy, what’s happening today? Everything is so quiet and rushed, You haven't stopped crying, I heard you mutter the words “hospital” and “baby” Help Mummy, I want it to stop! I can’t move away from the pain, With each ever slowing beat of my heart I am jolted further away from you, Through tears you cried “I’m sorry” Hi Mummy, I’m safe now I couldn't wait to see your face but you never wanted to see mine, I hope you are happy now, I miss you mummy and I still love you
