Getting into the 6th month and you've become more active than ever. Since 15 Oct, I can feel you practically though out the day. You seem to be most active when meditating, when I am hungry and after I eat food.
Active times -
8 AM to 10 AM
12 to 2 PM
4 to 6 PM
10:30 to 12 PM
People are starting to make out that I am pregnant, feels nice :)
I am in shopping mode now. Figuring what clothes to buy and when to buy them. Holding off until I put on more weight so I don't have to redo. Super excited for the different and new clothes :)

You seem to be getting stronger. I can feel your kicks stronger throughout. When do you sleep my Babu? You are always awake, day and night. My active champ and fighter you are. Mamma loves you soooooo much. Today during the afternoon nap I was imagining the delivery day. And then you in my hands. What. moment, I want to live that forever. It's the bestest thing that's ever gonna happen to me.
I am attending a lot of courses about birthing. I wish Daddy was around so we could watch it together. All my dreams about experiencing pregnancy together with Daddy got broken. However, you being with me nullifies everything. It just makes me stronger and makes me give you more than ever. Love you baccha.
I love the attention. You are now visible to everyone. The building maid, the autowallas, the yoga friends, strangers I meet on the roads - absolutely everyone is showering you with so much blessings. The whole universe is conspiring to give you all the love you did not get from Daddy. Guess that's how life is. I am just super happy that you are so much adored even before you are born. Thank you Chotu for being with me ALWAYS. You are my life and it's gonna be super beautiful together.

Mamma startd continuously puking at around 1 AM in early morning. Thinking it to be acidity, took eno. But nothing was staying in stomach. It was getting worse and worse. By 3:30 AM I lost all my energy and insisted we go to hospital. We rang up Sushma Aunty and asked Akshay to book a cab. I could barely stand let alone walk and simply slompd in the cab. With Auvi and Tatha, went to the clinic, the cabbie was real helpful, ran to knock the clinic doors. Got hospitallised, the doc came down in half an hour. Said antibiotics to be avoided. Asked for tests. Suspected acidity or liver functoning . Until reports arrived in evening, I could do nothing. I really needed Daddy by my side. Dad called up his mom. My fone was not reachable. But he did not call anyone else. At this hour at least I thought someone would reach out. But I was wrong. They were not there during my most difficult time. Evening the reports came, bad infection, WBC had doubled up. There was no option but to take antibiotics. The doc aunty said it could be a risk to you. I was devastated hearing it. You had gone silent too. But hearing the heartbeat gave some hopes.
For next 3 days I was compltely on saline and antibiotics. I was deeply worried. And still no communication from anyone from your dad's side. Nothign was staying in my stomach. I wasnt eating. I was howling crying, felt I was dying. On Dhanteras day. I was forced to eat. I was eaiting and puking. It was super bad. The only good thing in all this was you had started moving a lot - likely due to distress. And seeing new moms and babies getting delivered also made me happy. Some day I would be in their place soon.
On Diwali day I was discharged, for the next 5 days at home same condition. I really felt I was dying. I was worried about you. I was hurt that dad did not care to call Just 3 messages and then disappeared again. How could he be so inhuman. His family also none called. I couldn't believe this was them. Forget me, did they not even care about you? Time and again they have proved they dont, be it making me travel, not knowing about my complications, leaving me in aarey and then finally this.
However, my love got the better of me. I continued updating Dad for the next few days
I thot dad will come down. But once more I was absolutely wrong

Today I decided not to beg anymore, not to lose my self respect, not to give so much to someone who does not care, not to be human to inhumans. Today I decided that I need to be your role model. I decided that you will learn from me. And so I decided to get over all those people who are not there in my tough times, to let go of all that was temporary, to accept and move on.
Today I am free of all expectations, all judgement. And today, I would live life on my terms and JUST for you.
