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.
Its funny, the DHL guy has no idea about any of it either.
YEAH! You DID it! So happy for you!
Hooray for Zoot and NikkiZ! So happy for you, pretty lady.
Hahahaha
Yay!
You love krispy kreme AND beer? Yes, I am now convinced. We were indeed separated at birth.
