Man, I just want to scream this and tell the whole world!
I want to tell people. I want to tell people why I can't stop inhaling food. I want to tell people why I'm so exhausted. "Why are you so tired lately?" I'M GROWING A HUMAN!
I'm running out of excuses. And I'm a little tired of lying to everyone. I feel like for a month or two everything we say has been a lie. "When are you going to start TTC?" We don't know (we did already). "Why do you need off work?" Insert some random appointment (I have to meet with the OB, we're having an ultrasound). "Why aren't you drinking?" Gave it up for lent (pregnant people can't drink). "Are you not still doing the diet?" Yea sure (pregnant people shouldn't do diets that dramatically decrease calorie intake). "Do you have kids?" No (not technically, but in 8 months).
Oy, I'm ready for everyone to know so we can stop lying and just start being excited around everyone. The only person who knows is my boss, Tim. I felt like I had to tell him to make sure my job was safe for baby. I work around a lot of chemicals and needed to know what to avoid. Now he looks at me silly and wants to mention it but I swore him to secrecy.
This is by far the hardest secret we've ever had to keep and I'm finding it harder and harder by the minute. Here's to April 6!! It can't come soon enough!
