I started thinking I might be pregnant when:
When my hair was wet a few days ago, I ran a comb through it. When I looked at the comb, I notices that no hairs had come out. It immedietly occured to me that women who are pregnant don't lose hair which is why they lose so much after giving birth. Also, there were a couple of days last week when I was weepy and emotional for no good reason.

I found out I was pregnant when I:
Tested on Friday, May 2. I was sceptical, so took another test on Sunday. Indeed I am pregnant!
|
|
| |
I felt:
Thrilled!
|
|
| |
The first person I told was:
My nearly one-year-old son, Edward.
|
|
| |
They reacted by:
Laughing.

My baby will be born:
I'm due January 9, 2009. However, Edward was born nearly 3 weeks early, so I might end up with a Christmas baby.

The strangest symptom of pregnancy I had this month was:
Other than the lack of hair loss and the two emotional days, I have no symptoms. I'm a bit worried about this. I was nauseus for days before I knew I was pregnant the last time. A symptom or two would be reassuring.

My hopes:
Like anyone, I hope and pray for a healthy baby. I can't wish for anything else. I don't have a gender preference. Part of me would love to have a little girl. Part of me would love a baby brother for Edward. I can already picture them in matching vests.

My fears:
I fear the worst will happen. My mother, grandmother, aunt and sister in law all suffered miscarriages. I fear I'm next. I don't know how I will cope emotionally if that happened. I'm so far from my family and my support system here is minimal.
