Well, I have some news to share. But social decorum states that I shouldn't share until the 2nd tri... oh wait. That kind of spills the beans there. Ok, I'm pregnant! And right now the pee is barely dry on the test and I'm being conservative in who I tell... that's about all I'm conservative about haha. But then again, I have already told a community of people online who are all very happy for me.
Backing up... as you all remember, I went through a loss in May. As I write this at the end of October I have to tell you that from the date of my loss until the point of getting that 2nd line on the stick it only got marginally easier. I still cried and probably will continue to cry and mourn my loss. But now I can say "Today I am pregnant and I love my baby."
Initial thoughts:
- My instinct says this time around it's a boy. Don't know why, I just feel stronger about it being a boy than a girl.
- It doesn't feel real yet.
- I'm thankful that I don't have to spend my former due date (12-5-12) not pregnant. There was a lot of stress there.
First ultrasound: November 21, 2012. That's 3 weeks from today!
