Okay, I am currently in the “two week wait”, more commonly referred to as “waiting to find out if I’m pregnant.” While I wait for the day I can pull out my trusty pregnancy test and determine if it’s a :bfn or a :bfp, I am trying to ignore the fact that I’m in the two week wait at all.
Not an easy task. Those of you who have ever struggled to conceive know exactly what I’m talking about here. You find your eyes drifting towards the calender, ticking off the days. You find yourself prodding your own breasts (”Is that tender? Do they hurt more than usual?”) or trying to read into every mad dash to the bathroom or wave of nausea.
I, however, am over it. I’ve been and I’ve done that. Such obsessing can only serve to drive one crazy :nuts. So what do I do? I find other means to entertain myself in the meantime. I thrust myself into my design work, cruise the blog-scene, watch my Oprah and Dawson’s Creek…
Anything to avoid that big, fat, obnoxious elephant sitting RIGHT THERE. And sometimes, I can even fool myself into thinking I don’t notice him. That I’m too busy to see that he too is casting furtive glances at the calender.
This week is like any other week. Nothing to see here. Move along.
*tick tock*

This is me. I'm a thirtysomething stay at home mom to three kids. For years I was a stay at home mom to one kid and trying very hard to have more. It took a LONG time (ie: 6 1/2 years), but finally Liam arrived and charmed us with his blue eyes and ginormous, round head. Then we got a shock: I was pregnant again and this time it was a GIRL. Our hearts and home are full at last and now that we're done having babies, we get to relax (snort) and watch them grow (not too fast now, you hear?). Thanks for coming by, feel free to dip into my archives, read my About and History pages (just don't do Jackson's Story without tissues!) and make yourself at home.
