So long old friend…

Guess who is coming over some time tomorrow between 12 and 4pm? No, not my family, they’ll be here earlier. Nope - it’s the DHL guy. And guess what he’s coming to pick up? My doppler that we rented almost 40 weeks ago. I can not believe I am actually mailing it back. Even though NikkiZ is here and healthy, I still see that doppler as a security blanket that tells me she is okay and it feels weird to send it back. It means we really did it. We made a baby that I carried full term and then delivered into this world and she is here now, pooping up a storm and charming the socks off all around her.

It’s a very surreal thing to see that box by the door. The box holding a piece of equipment that calmed me down when I was scared and made me smile when I was longing for reassurance. Of course, sending that box back means one thing that I need to remind myself.

I will now have more money for beer every month.

    I’m glad that it worked for you, that you were able to get that reassurance. :) I’ve often considered doing the same thing, when the time comes.

    You did it! :)

    This may sound dumb, but I wonder if you could get a little charm made that looks like one? Seems to me that doppler is a really wonderful symbol of a miracle, ya know?

    Really REALLY happy for you Zoot.
