Letter to My Baby – Gestational Age 30 Weeks

Dear Baby

Well, look at that!  Truly the home stretch now, 10 weeks to go!!!

Mummy and Daddy went and bought your cot this week.  Now we just need to put it together!

This week has also seen Mummy struggling a bit with her blood sugar, which is totally to be expected at this point.  That placenta of yours is just sucking all her insulin right up, in order to keep your blood sugar under control.  Mummy has also had heartburn return worse than before.  She is not enjoying the third trimester at all right now.  But she knows it will all be worth it when she holds you in her arms.

As for you, little one, you weigh about 1.3 kilos and are about 27 cm long.  These next four weeks you will add lots of fat and fill out a lot, until you really look like a baby!  You are also being very very active.  All.the.time.  Although Mummy still appreciates that you seem to sleep when she sleeps!

Mummy and Daddy are still thinking about names.  Hopefully we’ll have one by the time you make your appearance!

Love

Mummy
