A Letter to My Unborn Daughter
Write to her before she is here. We seal it and deliver on her first birthday, or any milestone you choose up to two years out.
Why This Works
Pregnancy with a daughter has a specific weight to it. You start noticing things differently — what was said to you when you were small, what you wish had been said, what you want to do differently for her. The thoughts that show up at 4 AM are the most honest version of you that will ever exist on this topic. Most of them go nowhere.
A letter to your unborn daughter pins those thoughts down. You write while she is still hypothetical, while your relationship to her is still entirely imagined, while you have not yet learned the rhythm of who she actually is. The version of you who writes it gets to talk to the version of her who can read it, with the strange beautiful gap of years between them.
We hold the letter sealed and deliver it on the date you choose — her first birthday, her tenth, the morning you want her to know who you were before you became her parent.
