Still Around

Sorry I have been missing in action. My laptop died a few weeks ago, had some kind of virus and Hubby took a week to get rid of it. I have also been extremely busy at work. My boss will be changing departments which leaves me with a lot more responsibility until they figure out what to do.

Pregnancy is going very well. I had an OB appointment for my routine checkup but he canceled on me so that has been postponed until next week. I will also be doing the glucose tolerance test which I am not looking forward to. Baby is moving a lot but I feel her way low and sometimes when she kicks she makes me run to the bathroom.

One of my DH relative has been married more than 7 years and has no children. We see them at family gatherings at least 3-4 times a year and I always had wanted to ask about their situation. I am certain that they want kids but since we are not so close and they have not talked about it I was never comfortable to ask. We haven’t seen them since I got pregnant and last week we met the husband for coffee to discuss something else but I was a little nervous on how he would react to the pregnancy. I have been on the other end and knowing how painful it is when someone announces they are pregnant I felt a little anxious. He was so happy for us and he mentioned to hubby how blessed we are to be expecting. I want to help and let them know of our experience and see what they have tried but I just don't feel close enough to mention it. So I have asked DH to meet him and tell him about our experience in hopes that he will be comfortable and open about their situation.

On other news we have started looking for houses. We are not ready to buy yet but thinking that we may act on it after the baby is born. I don’t want a big house, I want a house that we can afford with just one salary but around here that is almost impossible unless it is a condo or a very old small house. Hopefully we will save enough to at least put 20% down by the fall. It is nice to have our own home, a few weeks ago the A/C broke down in the middle of the 90 plus degree heat wave and boy I was dying. The landlord took a good two weeks to have a new unit put in. Pregnancy and hot weather do not go together.

  1. Oh wow! A new house and a new baby! I hope it all goes well for you!!! I agree, heat and pregnancy are not friends. Glad to hear that everything is still going well. I was starting to wonder about you, if you were okay and all that. Good to know it was just computer problems! I have my glucose tolerance test tomorrow, yuck!!! Hope we both pass that. And I replied to your message on my latest post, don't know if you saw it or not... or if it makes you feel any better or not. SO good to hear from you again! Take care and good luck with everything!!! :)
