Decisions

I've made a few decisions since Bun has entered the picture.

1 - I will not be the maniacal paranoid pregnant woman who goes to the bathroom 20 times a day just to make sure that I'm not bleeding. I will trust in God - he gave us this baby even though we were using birth control. He must have wanted us to have this baby. I will do the things that I can do, but I will trust that he has a plan.

2 - I will not be the bitchy pregnant wife that I allowed myself to often become last time around. So, I can't have the beer that Tarzan is happily glugging down in front of me - so what. I can laugh as his beer belly grows along with my baby bump.

3 - I will not be the frustrated pregnant woman who's nesting instinct is denied due to a procratinating husband. I will use this time to learn new things so that I can do things for myself rather than having to wait for Tarzan to do them for me.

4 - I will not be the frumpy pregnant woman who tries to hide the belly. I will enjoy the pregnant body rather than being a bit disgusted by it. I will buy cute maternity clothes so that I can feel pretty during this time.

5 - I will not be the hormonal pregnant woman who doesn't have "play time" with her husband for 14-15 months. I keep reading that sex while pregnant can be very satisfying. While I never found that part of pregnancy last time around, I plan to figure it out this time.

These are just a few of the things that I am going to do differently this time around.

Unfortunately, I also think that I may be doing the morning sickness thing differently this time around... My system is not feeling tip-top this morning...

But I'll smile about it - this is going to be fun - it's all about perspective, right?

Until tomorrow... Habt einen guten Tag
