I was going to just keep quiet for another couple weeks, but whatever. I don't want people worrying about me. I'm not depressed. I'm not sick. I have just been highly hormonally moody, and I've only been writing here about the bad moods because I actually didn't want to talk about anything, but sometimes when the bad mood hits, I gotta get it out somewhere.
Hey, guess what everybody, I'm 9 and a half weeks pregnant. There, I said it. So get over my mood swings, I'm absolutely fine, it's very normal. :P Jon is quite happy and has been very caring, and is really helping out a lot, both around the house and in those non-tangible, emotionally supportive ways. Also, he's got the patience of a saint with all my mood swings, irrationality, food aversions, etc, etc, etc. I gotta good husband. The best. Couldn't ask for better.
I don't really want congratulations right now because I am sick and tired and it would just irritate me, in the way that being congratulated for contracting influenza while having the worst PMS ever might irritate any normal person. Woman. But you male readers should just trust me on this.
Argh.
I did not want to make this "official LiveJournal announcement" until I'd hit the second trimester, but I don't want people thinking that I'm getting all depressed and whatnot. I'm just really sick and don't have a lot of time or energy for writing stuff on here. Plus there's a lot on my mind lately, but most of it has to do with pregnancy, and that's not something I wanted to write about just yet.
Rest assured, I do log in here daily, and I do read every single post on my f-page, so you're all still in my thoughts. I just don't say much lately and probably won't until I start feeling a little better.
So, in sum, I'm pregnant and that's why I've sounded so pissy lately. We're due at the end of April 2008. I'm sick of moodiness and so-called morning-sickness (it's really an all-day and all-night affair), which all my books assure me really will go away after 14-16 weeks at the longest... I'm hoping even sooner. The 12th week will end on October 11th, and we're going to have a doctor's appointment that day and hopefully hear a heartbeat, which I'm hoping will signal not only the end of the first trimester, but the beginning of the time when I'm supposed to not feel sick and tired and moody anymore (until the third trimester).
I'm starting to feel like I'm rambling so I'm going to stop here now. Just pretend you didn't know about this until I get out of the first trimester please, ok? Thanks.
ETA: Oh, also, happy first wedding anniversary to us today!
