Today, instead of doing all the other important shit I’ve been neglecting because I’ve been so, so preoccupied with our life-changing decision, I’ve been reading baby blogs. And oh my god I so want to be pregnant as of yesterday.
But, it could take months. Years even. How will I ever find the patience to stay relaxed about it all, and just let things happen as they will, and not turn into some kind of complete, um, enthusiast?* I have no idea, but I sense this will be an important skill to acquire for motherhood, anyway.
Here’s hoping that this old dog can learn some new tricks.
*Am I one already, by virtue of this very blog? Fuck. It’s a distinct possibility.
I saw that other blog and it scared me a little bit.
I KNOW, right? I mean, wow, I admire her forethought and organisational skills and whatnot, and clearly her children are going to be very thoughtfully raised, but sweet almighty, sometimes it seem like perhaps a little bit… much.
Dude. A lot much. And I checked back and she is pregnant already. First try.
I guess her approach works then.
Definitely a whole new level of crazy (her, not you).
