Dear Braxton Hicks,

Hello there.

At first, I appreciated your visit, but you have overstayed your welcome. I thought your presence might have indicated that exciting things were on the horizon, but now I see your true colors. You are just a pest. Please vacate the premises immediately.

On your way out, please tell your cousin, Real Contractions, that he is welcome any time.

Best,
The Vessel

  1. "The Vessel" both disturbs and amuses. Rather along the lines of someone I know calling the baby a "parasite" until she was full term, but nicer.. ?

  2. Yeah, I'm feeling rather "vessel-like" this week.
