Pregnancy Poems
Poems about Pregnancy
Pregnancy is the privilege of experiencing God's miracles on earth. "in my flesh shall I see God". Nowhere is this more apparent than in the experience of a pregnancy. Science has made it possible to witness the baby's growth on a sonogram. Once you see that, there's no turning back. Watching and feeling this little miracle grow inside you, knowing that one day you will hold this child in your hands is one of the greatest gifts that can be experienced.
17 Poems for Expecting Mothers & Fathers

1. A Special Glow
You Are With ChildI was told by you that you were with child
I was scared for you and I tried to smile
We had one last summer and fall, just you and I
I now apologize for each time I had made you cry
We were so young, we were in love, and we tried to not be afraid
You were proud, strong and loving as you planned for that day
I remember that morning, it was beautiful with snow on the ground
We knew that your delivery was close and you had stayed with your mom across town
I got to the hospital, I drove like mad and ran the rest of the way
The doctor said we had time, they acted like you had all day
You showed them, no time to waste
You went right to the delivery room with no haste
Our first son was born, dark hair, brown eyes, our Michael Ross
I went to my Dad to see if that was ok, to name my first son after a son that he had lost
8 months later I left for the Marine Corps
I got a letter that said we would soon have one more
This child was born, with fuzz for hair and eyes that were so blue
Another wonderful gift from God and you
We had planned for girl and got James Craig
He was named from two friends, Jimmy and Craig
Then 9 years later we decided to have another, we thought of no harm
Things went so wrong, I almost lost you, you almost died in my arms
That child that we would have loved
That child joined God in heaven above
So we were told that we most likely could have not a child
For three years we went on with our lives, then one day God must have smiled
You were blessed by God, to you he did smile
He blessed you with a miracle, another child
This one was different, you were more beautiful and had a special glow
Things were so right, but there were things we did not know
Problems arose, the baby needed to come early or it would not grow
For three more days we did wait, you remained calm and still a glow
I remember this delivery, this time I was filled with fear
I was afraid of loosing you, I wanted you here
I remember your pain, the anguish, the uncertainty and the fear
After her birth I laid my head on your belly and cried many tears
An angel was born, a miracle with dark hair and blue eyes
Danielle Erin, she was added to our family, by God to our lives
I have told you that each time you were with child you had a glow
Now I realize it was your love, you heart and your soul
For Pammy, you're are a special wife and mother
A special woman like no other -
2. Follow The Yellow Brick Road
Poem About Wanting To ConceiveI trot along the yellow brick road
In search for something I need,
Passing the Lion, Tin Man, and the Scarecrow,
But not interest in any of these three.
I'm off to seek something bigger,
Something only the wizard can award.
It is not to take me to my empty home.
Something greater I have in store.
I have no need for bright red shoes
Or a dog named Toto; I already have three.
Or to be zapped back to my home on the hills,
Or a fairy, a witch, or a monkey.
A crystal ball would be nice to have,
But friends, I really have plenty.
I'm eager to pass through Munchkin Land
To grab a few lollipops for the journey.
I've come to ask the wizard
For something I can't ever do,
For something I prayed so long for;
Even my God hasn't pulled through.
I've seen this man grant many wishes.
When I was a young little girl
I thought it couldn't hurt none,
So I'm here to give it a whirl.
I am asking the wizard for a baby,
For I never could conceive.
Though I try so hard so many times,
I want this more than the air I breathe.
And once he grants me my wish
And places a seed inside my womb,
I will request that he fly me back
To a home with a nursery room
Where I can rock my baby in a chair
And sing lullabies to it all night long
And envision our life together
Inside our souvenir crystal ball
My home won't lack from silence.
My heart won't lack empty space.
My dreams will have come true.
I will be kissing my baby's face. -
3. A Boy Or A Girl
Talking To Child In WombAt first you moved,
only a little.
I could always find you,
right in the middle.
As time went on,
you really started to grow.
It wasn't a whole lot,
in fact, it was rather slow.
Before I knew it,
you were all over the place.
It kind of felt like
you were running a race.
People would ask me
if you were a boy or a girl.
I would sit and wonder,
if you would have curls.
There are so many things
I really want to know.
But you are hidden inside,
so the answers don't show.
How much will you weigh?
How tall will you be?
What color is your hair?
Will you even like me?
I hope and pray
you feel like you belong.
I never want you to feel
like you are alone.
Your Dad and I
planned you from the start.
You, my dear child,
were made straight from our hearts.
In about a week or so,
I'll meet you, for the first time.
For you are the product
of your Dad's love and mine.
There will be no one like you,
not any place in the world.
It really doesn't matter
if you are a boy or a girl.
We are both so happy
that you even exist.
The gender doesn't matter.
you'll be hard to resist.
I hope I make you proud,
that I am your mother every day.
Because, you have filled my dreams
in more ways than words can say.
It won't be long before
I can look you in the eyes.
I can feel the excitement growing,
I know I'm going to cry.
Don't worry my angel,
those tears will be of joy.
It won't matter to me
if you are a girl or a boy.Latest Shared StorySpeechless! I really loved the poem! I'm a teenager who right now has 2 boys and one coming along in April (if God is willing). This poem relates to me in various ways, although I'm on my 3rd...

4. Bravest Of Us All
Teenage Pregnancy Or AbortionThe bulging belly tells a story
Her naked hand is a cause for shame
She is scared
And alone
Fornicators look at her
And laugh
Pointing
Three fingers point back
She thinks her only way out
Is to destroy the thing inside
Angels and demons struggle in her head
Fighting for life
She goes to church
Pro-life people shun her
They whisper:
"She is not married"
Against all odds she decided to tell her family
She is going to see this through
She encounters anger
What a little whore she is
God seems to not love her
She makes an appointment
Tears in her eyes she ascends
The stairs
Carrying the weight of her cross
The doctor will see you
Then behold
A miracle
A women dressed with the sun
Do not harm this child
Take comfort my daughter
I have been where you are
I have received their teasing
Do not listen to them
God himself has touched you
The bulging belly tells a story
Her naked hand proves how brave she really is. -
5. Tiny Baby
Poem About Anticipating the Arrival of a BabyTiny movements like tiny kicks
Tiny baby, a mother's bliss
Can't wait to give the tiny you
Huge hugs and lots of kisses too
What tiny dreams you might have now?
I would understand someday, somehow
I dreamed last night, your tiny face
An angel indeed, made from God's sweet embrace
How else would mommy know?
How much her tiny little angel has grown?
How else would mommy guess?
If her little angel has some requests?
I know that somehow you could now hear
Oh, what a thrill you will bring us here!
Now hush my baby, it's time to rest
Inside my womb, your own calm nest
May God help me to keep you safe
And always keep you strong, I pray
I love you right before I planned you
And I love you more now that I have you
love, your soon to be mommy xoxo -
6. A Hand Yet To Hold
Eager Anticipation To Meet Your BabyA soul is inside me, awaiting a life.
Eyes yet to open with wonder and delight.
A mouth yet to laugh, expressions untold.
To love and be loved, a hand yet to hold.
The journey of life, whatever will be.
Sleep now my baby, and wait for me. -
7. Poem To My Unborn Child
You are the unborn child deep inside of me,
like a tiny seed that turns into a tree.
You are the child made out of love,
with a little help from the man upstairs above.
In nine months I will give birth to a girl or a boy,
and share with my family this wonderful joy. -
8. A New Father's Questions
On Finding Out You're To Be A DadYou come to me with sadness in your eyes,
And tell me we have to talk,
Immediately I think the worst,
'Is it me? Does she want to walk?'
You try to begin, but don't know how,
And my nerves are standing on end.
You say that you're pregnant, two times confirmed,
And we may have a new little friend.
I'm speechless and breathless,
I can't form words to say,
This isn't what I expected,
Driving home today.
I know this is sudden,
And we haven't prepared,
But we've been through so much already,
Look at all we've shared.
Now there's another life,
Growing inside of you,
And I wonder what kind of Dad I'll be,
Will our Child's dreams come true?
Will I be the kind of father,
Who dotes upon his child?
Who fixes skinned knees,
With a smile, patient and mild?
Will I learn to chase the monsters,
From underneath their bed?
Will I be able to ease the nightmares,
From our child's tiny head?
Will you shine as a mother?
Will contentment light your face?
Will it bring out even more beauty,
Which the passage of time could never erase?
Will you be the kind of mother,
Who worries each time our child is ill?
Each stuffy nose an emergency,
Or will you have more resolve than I will?
What will it look like?
Will it have your eyes?
Will it love us right away?
Will it look on us with surprise?
Will we learn to adjust to 2am cries?
Can we deal with late night feedings?
Will I cry in front of the Obstetrician,
The First time I hear our child's heart beating?
Will it be a son or daughter?
Will it grow up to be like us?
Will we learn to deal with the crankiness,
When our baby starts to fuss?
These questions seem so pertinent,
More so now than they ever had,
I hope our child will love their mother,
As much as she's loved by their Dad.
I'm scared and excited,
Hesitant and yet bold,
We're going to be a family,
And our baby we'll soon hold.
Will it be a boy or a girl?
I guess only time will tell -

11. Cry Of An Unborn Child
Letter To Mommy From The WombFor My Mommy (the cry of an unborn child)
Hello Mommy, this is me, your baby-
I'm just a tiny someone,
Floating in your tummy, feeling snug and warm.
When God made me, He gave me a soul
And sent a special angel to look after me
And an angel to look after you, too.
I'm growing a little bit every day,
And soon I'll get my own fingers and toes.
Once my ears have developed properly,
I'll be able to hear the sound of your voice.
Please Mommy, don't let them hurt me-
I'll do my very best to be good.
I just want a chance to live my life and be someone special in yours.
I'll make you breakfast on Mother's Day
And draw pictures, made especially for you.
I'll sing loudly in my first school concert
And try my hardest at everything I do.
There might be days when I'm a bit naughty
And make you scream and shout,
But I'll also give you plenty of hugs and kisses
To cheer you up when you're sad.
Oh Mommy please, just give me a chance...
We don't need to live in a big fancy house,
And I don't need a room filled with toys.
All I ask of you is your love and a chance to love you back.
I want to be able to call you "Mom," and hear you say I'm yours.
I long to feel the grass tickle my toes
And the warmth of the sun on my back.
I want to experience the excitement of my first day at school
And the joy of playing with my friends.
Don't listen to the voices saying it'll be easier when I'm gone.
God chose YOU to be my mommy,
And He chose me to teach you about LOVE!
So please mommy, don't let me down.
I know God and His angels will help.
Be strong for me... hold on to me...
You'll be grateful in eternity!
Latest Shared StoryI loved this poem so much, it made me cry. I am totally against abortion. No baby should be murdered by its mother. It is sad to see children God has made being murdered. If you can't take...

12. To My Precious Child
Love Poem To Unborn ChildWhether you're a little girl
Or a little boy
Just knowing that you're on your way
Fills my heart with joy.
You'll learn that you're my miracle
For you I've waited long
You'll see it in my poetry
Maybe even in a song.
May you always know what love is
From our whole family
That, my little angel,
Is a promise straight from me.
I hope you grow up strong and smart
Because you stayed in school
Intelligence will be your art
Wisdom will be your tool.
You can be whatever you want to be
As long as you put your mind to it
Whenever you hit a rough spot, though,
I'll be there to see you through it.
Whether it's music, dance or even sports
I'll let you try it all
We'll shop for tights and soccer shorts
Downtown at the local mall.
I'm not sure of what else to say right now
'Cause I've really said a lot
You'll learn to understand me
'Cause I'm the only Mom you've got!Latest Shared StoryMy baby is just like this poem, so beautiful and cute, I love her so much!

13. Three Months Left
Poem About the Emotions Felt During PregnancyNever thought this would happen to me,
Never thought I'd be 18 and pregnant.
Never thought I was invincible,
Just never thought it would be me.
But now it is true,
3 more months and we'll have a little one.
So many emotions I have,
So hard it is to express them.
Want to scream and cry,
Want to run and hide.
Want to wake up
And it be just a dream.
But it's not,
And soon we will have a life to care for.
A life to support and provide the best for.
So scared I am that I will fail,
So afraid I am that I can't do it.
But God will give me strength,
To let me handle it.
God will give me everything I need,
To raise the miracle he blessed us with.Latest Shared StoryThis is me exactly! except I've still got 6 more months to go. So excited though and my boyfriend will help me the whole way through it all, and god especially. 18 and pregnant, never thought...

14. I Love You, Baby
Poem About Reflection on Baby's First BirthdayWhen I found out you were coming,
It took me by surprise.
It took me time to realize
I'll have a son by my side.
People said well, you're too young,
you don't know what you're doing.
You'll have no future for your baby,
your life is now all ruined.
I blew them off and worked real hard.
For future is what I'll give him.
Nothing less is what he deserves,
for he is a gift from heaven.
June 17th, the time has come.
The birth of my son is here.
How big will you be? Are you healthy?
What color will be your hair?
So many questions run in my head
as I'm waiting for you to come out.
The next thing I hear, the greatest thing.
You let out a tremendous shout.
Your cry was like a beautiful
song sung just for me.
I knew now that you were safe
and soon you'll be with mommy.
In my arms your body went.
I counted ten fingers and toes.
Then I looked at your face.
I counted two eyes and a nose.
Time went by way too fast.
Now you're learning to crawl.
Before I know it, the day will come
when I'm chasing you down the hall.
Happy Birthday to my HIMS.
What a year it has been.
You've learned so much and getting bigger.
You're one and you'll soon be 10.
I love you always and forever.
You'll always be by my side.
It's HIMS and mommy from here
on out until the end of time.Latest Shared StoryI love all that have read in the pregnancy poems...so inspiring! prepares my mind for the joy of Motherhood!

I love you with all my life.

17. How Did I Let This Happen?
Poem About a Teen PregnancyHow did I let this happen?
What happened?
This can not be?
Not me?
How?
How I may be 13, but I am not stupid I know how!
I didn't know what was happening.
It was like 2 seconds long!
Then I was late!
I couldn't even face my parents.
When I told them their barely 13 year old daughter
was going to have one of her own?
They couldn't face me.
They are disgusted.
They tried to send me away.
Now I am living with my sister.
How could can I go on with my life?
Slut they call
I know I'm nothing at all
How could the priest daughter be pregnant at age 13?
My sister says I should get an abortion because I am too little to have a baby!
She says that a 13 year old 5 foot 1 90 pound girl can not have a baby!
BUT I AM A FIGHTER
The options are clear to me I am going to give her up
or I keep her.
It's going to be tough, but I have to choose between a life I once knew
It's gone; it's so far away it's hazy
How did I ever think I would be cool if I did that stuff
it made me cool for like 3 months
And now I am being called a SLUT
How can they say that?
They are doing the same thing I did.
I am the only person who is going to pay
Pay and even an innocent little girl that could've gone to anyone
anyone else
someone
someone else
please take her!
I love her, I can't keep her when she's out
she's going to someone who can give her a good life
Because that's how strong my love is for her
She will always be mine
But I know that I can't keep
if I could I would
but I need her to get a good life
Life
that's all I can give herLatest Shared StoryI'm writing to you as the mother of a son who we were fortunate to adopt because of a young girl of 15 in your situation. It was a match that had to be made in Heaven, I have no doubt! We...
