new addition

So I recently discovered I was pregnant...

It took a while to sink in. Now I spend most of my days battling nausea and occasional cramping and headaches. I have to say, that so far this experience really sucks! It is not at all what I imagined it to be and this is only the beginning...YIKES! I have already had my share of pregnancy stories and they all do nothing to ease the fear and apprehension I've been feeling. I actually wished people wouldn't share ALL of the details with me...

This first trimester has already drained me completely of energy and enthusiasm. I feel more weary and unhappy actually. I know it will pass and it will only be a matter of time before I begin to show and become more excited with the prospect of having a child. It is the only thing that gets me by. Everything else sort of makes me want to hide in my closet and come out when I'm further along.

I guess I will have to put my faith in nature and let things unfold the way they were meant to. I mean life could be much more complicated for me, I have been fairly lucky in my journey thus far. I just have to work on the mental fortitude...I guess.
