I was on another forum, where I met some
great people. However, I was turned off
because of what I felt to be some
disrespectful comments. Hopefully the
posters in here know the limit between
having an opinion and being rude!
I look forward to getting to know the
other prego women in here, and the
non-pregos too.
i am 21 weeks along and just started
showing last week. I love the pregnant
belly. So adorable. We won't find out
the gender of the baby since my midwife
feels that a second ultrasound is not
necessary. It's cool though because I
think yellow and green clothes are just as
cute as blue or pink for babies. And the
surprise should be exciting.
So far i've felt healthy and energetic,
and can't wait for my sweetheart to join
the world. The father is a wonderful
person and very supportive, although i'm
not sure if we will continue a
relationship. I've broken up with him,
but we're still very close and intend to
live together once the baby is born.
Confusing huh? I know. Also, he is
living in another city on the other side
of the country. I moved to a new city
for a new job just 3 months ago, so I
don't know alot of people here and am
still adjusting.
I'm an economist and I work for the
government. I like it, but most of all I
like the fact that I get a year of paid
mat leave once the baby comes. The
father is still doing his phd, so the
finances will be mostly my responsibility
for the next few years. I don't mind.
I've always enjoyed being independent and
I like a challenge.
Okay, i'm done blabbing. Talk to y'all
later.

if it's a boy we'll name him malcolm (not
my top choice, but it means alot to the
father since it's his brother's name)
if it's a girl we'll name her maya
congrats on the new little guy!

thanks. My hormones don't seem out of
whack. I'm still the same crazy person
i've always been. But my bf and friends
say that i'm the most stable pregnant
woman they've ever seen. I actually
think it has calmed me down alot. I was
also lucky because I didn't have morning
sickness or any of the other symptoms.
(knock on wood)
the hardest part has been that i'm alone.
I just moved to ottawa for the new job
and I don't know a single person here.
Thankfully I have alot of friends in
montreal, just 1.5 hours away. So I
visit them and they visit me. My bf also
came down to visit once, and I flew to see
him last week. We will spend christmas
and new years together (we booked 2 nights
at the ritz carleton in montreal over new
years. I'm so excited)
i'm not really lonely, and i'm quite happy
all the time. I sit at home alot and
watch t.V., but i'm always laughing to
myself. I just feel like a bit of a
loser sometimes because i'm used to having
alot of good friends around me and having
alot going on in my life. I am craving
drama and excitement. I've also never
had a 9-5 job and it's more routine than I
would like. But I will enjoy the quiet
time while it lasts because once the baby
comes, i'll be begging for a break!
i am really sorry about the stress and
pain you must be going through with your
son going off to iraq. Hopefully america
will pull out soon and he will be back
safe and sound at home. In the meantime,
my thoughts are with your family at this
time.
