When I got to know that I was pregnant
It woke inside me, a whole lot of emotions
It was such a great feeling,
Motherhood had started calling
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
When the phone kept on ringing for congratulation,
People started giving advice and suggestions
My room was full of baby pics
Everyone showering their blessings and gifts
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
When my hand kept caressing my belly from time to time
Whole day till it was sleeping time
Then too I would dream about the baby
Would he be like his mom or daddy?
I started wondering if it would be a boy or a girl
Whether I would have to get cars or sort out curls
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
When there was a change in my eating habits
And my clothes did not fit
I took a trip to a shop for mother and child
And ended up buying things only for the child
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
When the baby kicked for the first time
I felt as if the clock had struck ninety nine
Each passing day brought me closer to the baby
His days and night went talking to me and his daddy
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
When I saw my belly in the mirror
I knew the time was coming near
I rushed to the hospital with tears of pain
With hope of a bundle of joy to gain
Flowers and balloons were the room decorations
Everyone was waiting with anticipation
I asked myself-“Am I a mother now?”
Then the time came for us to finally meet
With the baby in my arms I felt complete
The room became alive with joy and laughter
The baby was the one most sought after
I asked myself-”Am I a mother now”?
And I finally got my answer in his eyes...

welcome to allpoetry
That was beautiful and so touching, congrats on the baby and such a feeling it is to see that in their eyes. gifts form the divine. I have twin baby boys myself right now, 10 1/2 months old now.. ~sigh~ it goes so fast sometimes,so don't forget to pay attention to it.
thank you for sharing this with us here, and as far as keeping the writing going, yes I feel you should, just write what you feel, it dosen't have to be as structured as this one, but it just has to be..
let me know if you need anything else.
cheers

Congratulations on your baby boy! I bet you are one happy mother! I watched my sister blossom into a woman, and when she was pregnant, she had this glow about her, that I can imagine you had the same...Again, congratulations!!!
