Maya is going to be a big sister

I'm 16 weeks pregnant. I met the doctor, the last time it was the nurse practitioner, and I feel really confident that I'm in good hands. And he reassured me that it is "OK" to have a baby at 32 weeks, its when you have one in twenty something weeks that it is very worry some because then the baby has serious heath problems their whole life. So he said we will try to go full term but if we don't then at least get to a safe term. Plus he said I will know what the signs are that things are going wrong because they'll be written in my system like a computer so if any alarms go off in my head I'll be able to just make an appointment and go from there.

So enough on that subject:

Maya is really excited about being a big sister. She comes up to me and says "Mommy, can I see yours baby?" referring to my belly, which I will suppose will be my baby until no longer pregnant. So I say yeah, and she pulls my shirt up and leans in closer and says "Hi baby, its me Maya. I will not make you cry. I love you." and she kisses my belly. She does this fairly often telling the baby all sorts of things. It is so sweet, the baby will know who she is upon arrival.
