14 weeks and counting
January 30, 2009
Well, I guess its about time I blogged about my bit of exciting news… as I talked about in my earlier post ‘an emotional time’ the summer of 2008 was a bit of a shitty time for me and darling boyf
but I’m now wonderfully, ecstatically, overjoyedly excited to be able to say that winter ‘08 held a bit of good news for us after all and yes – you’ve guessed it – we’re pregnant again
We’re 14 weeks today (so fingers crossed we’re past the ‘danger-zone’ now) and its all been a bit of a whirlwind so far but little ‘button’ is due to make her grand entrance on 31st July and we just can’t wait! And no, I don’t know for definate that she’s a girl – but if ‘mother’s intuition’ counts for anything then a ‘mini-me – as opposed to a ‘mini-him’ – is on her way.
We’re now starting to tell people and everyone has been so happy its been wonderful – and to the girls… If I ‘go on’ a bit too much over the next few months please feel free to hit me – I’m not being intentionally annoying
I think the best thing about being pregnant so far has been seeing the look on everyone’s faces when they hear the news - ’coz believe me the physical aspects of pregnancy have been – for me at least – a nightmare… I’m sure I’ve heard darling boyf whisper the name ‘Regan’ as I’ve been rushing past him on my way to the bathroom – The Exorcist anyone… she had NOTHING on me I tell you!
All our friends have been soooooo happy for us (well, with one marked exception
- needless to say a christening invitation won’t be whinging its way to that person in the near future!) and its just so nice to able to think about the future and happy things. Especially as little bump that we lost would have been due in a few days and at least this way we can look forward as well as thinking about what might have been.
So to all our friends and family I say ‘thankyou’ – you all know who you are
- for being so caring and understanding over the last 6 months and for being there now to share the happier times, and to my gorgeous little ‘button’, hang on in there sweetie - we’re all looking forward to meeting you very soon.
Also ‘button’ if you’re listening… mummy would really appreciate a day of not throwing up!!! pleeeeeease
