A New Beginning

I've been beyond tardy with the updates. Not that you folks who still follow my blog would be surprised since it seems to have become somewhat of a trend these days. Oops.

I'm kinda sorry about that cos actually, recently, I've had a lot to say, but not a lot of time to say it in. Part of the reason for that has been work that has been occupying more of my time, as always. Then there's all the online TV I've been watching (Project Runway Season 4!) But mostly it's cos I've been dropping off to sleep REAAALLY EARLY (by my 12am/1am daily standards). And the reason for that is:



Yes, I'm apparently pregnant. (It's been, what, 10 weeks? And I've only not too long ago FINALLY managed to drop the "apparently" in the sentence, something that used to give DD a lot of amusement as he played along and asked me about our hypothetical baby)

It was all a bit unreal to me at first, especially since I'd just tested cos my period was a little late, but I was wondering if I had miscounted, especially since it had been a bit erratic the previous 2 months. And for most of the week of the testing (at 5 weeks) I was feeling fine, or "THE SAME" as I repeatedly emphasised to DD. Well, I was to take that back the very next week as I started to feel bloated and queasy.

And still, it was when we saw the wee little heartbeat on the screen and heard the thumpity-thump at the doctor's (at 6 weeks) that it started to sink in. Nothing much to see though, just a speck in the sac. And then recently (or not really, not that recently since I took so long to post this up) we got to actually see it - the little bean, or as the Dr called it, the peanut.



So yes, it's really happening. It's quite a road ahead of us still, but I believe God will see us through. More next time!
