New Chapter
TC just called me to tell me that she's pregnant.
Am I a terrible mother that my first thought was "Damn, I wish S would get off his ass and get a real job?"
We hung up since she was on her way out and I did a mental calculation... Due date to be about the time of their first anniversary, the beginning of July.
She called again later, after seeing the local family doctor. She's about 5 weeks along (so my math was right on).
I told her pretty much what the local doctor had said about seeing the nurses for blood pressure, protein in urine and weight gain....
My next thought was wondering how to break the news to Y, a friend of ours. She's a few years older than TC, married for 2 years, been TTC for the past 6 months and had a chemical pregnancy end ON Rosh Hashana...
