Btw, I finished my 2nd grad class and my 3rd class starts Jan 10th. My teacher was kind enough to send my the syllabus so I've already started working on a couple of the major projects.
I told the teacher I was pregnant and that my due date is May 5th. Class ends on the 2nd...so we'll be cutting it close if I actually deliver on time. (not likely with a first child)
Husband and I are going to visit with family and they are throwing me a baby shower during the visit.
I know I shouldn't but I keep peeking at the Registry.
Knowing that someone has bought the Baby Bather makes all of this more real.
I think I've even felt Baby moving. I'm in my 19th week so, it's around that time that I should feel movement anyway.
Husband and I have wanted this for so long, that I find it hard to believe that the miracle has happened. I was so afraid for so long that I was infertile...
I'm reading books (like What to Expect When You Are Expecting), applying for a new job at my University that is a step up in both pay and title, and trying to get a jump start on this newest class in case I do deliver early.
But! I'm also making sure to relax and have fun with Husband, and get plenty of sleep. I'm usually in Bed by 7:00 pm to read/relax/throw mouse for my cat. And am asleep by 8:00 pm.
I never imagined when I started on the DBing path, that my life would end up here.
I know I'm quiet, but I do check on people.
Pam, I'm glad you started your new thread, I was begining to worry. Please keep us updated on the car situation.
And I was unclear about the email that your Vet sent you. Are you giving your dogs away to your vet? Why did your Vet say she would take one and the other Vet(?) would take the other?
Things are going well. Baby has moved passed the soccer stage and has decided to try out for the gymnastics team! S/he is doing lots of movements!
I announced my pregnancy at work now that I'm 26 weeks along. My colleagues are excited for me and being very supportive. Several of them were quite miffed at my holding back...and one told me I keep secrets so well that I could work for the CIA!
Things continue to go incredibly well with Husband. He and I have had a few discussion and worked things out for the better. Each time this happens, I feel stronger and more faithful that we can work anything out.
My latest blood test showed my TSH was down to 1.something. The lowest it's ever been since I first had thyroid issues ten years ago! I'm thrilled!!
I have some more tests coming up, thyroid and glucose intolerance...but everything is progressing smoothly.
I absolutely love this life that I've created for myself!
Husband has done an incredible job on quitting smoking. He's using the patch and is down to the 2nd stage. He has 'cheated' a couple of times but is able to get back on track immediately.
