As if the nausea, fatigue, moodiness, and snug fitting clothes didn't already confirm that I was pregnant, let's add the decreased risk of miscarriage associated with the end of the first trimester. Here I am, 12 weeks tomorrow, and things are going smoothly. The ultrasound taken at 10 weeks confirmed a lil baby wavering around in there- always makes things more real when you see the baby shaped being in the womb. A big sigh of releif as I end trimester number one.
Tomorrow is also my 31st birthday. This birthday eve reminds me that I had a list of 30 things to do in my 30th year. Most of which I completed- others which I didn't even have the time to think about. I did pretty good, but I liked checking things off life's to do list. Most of the things on the list helped me develop personally, or my family grow as its own great lil creature. No matter what, I've loved the journey- ups and downs- cuz it helps me to realize how strong we can be and how we're willing to work through everything together. I love that feeling.
Next on the list is to break the news to work. Although things seem pretty liberal at work as far as life events and giving time off, I'm very hesitant to tell the news cuz I'm new and don't know how well this kinda thing goes there. It will all be ok in the end. And I hope they can see in the past month how much I'm willing to learn and how much I can offer their team. I really like it there and feel like I can have a solid place there.
So, goodbye first trimester, hello second trimester! Bring on the blood tests, pee tests, dr appointments, and growth. I will really begin to look prego and people will know it. People will give me their seat on BART (hopefully). And no one will let me carry anything. I'm good, I'm ready - let's be prego!
Happy birthday to me :)
