keepin’ it on the DL, yo.

I’ve got a cold and it sucks. I’m snotty and sneezy and Tylenol isn’t really doing jack shit. But it’s better than nothing, I guess.

I know I’ve been complete shit at writing lately and I’m going to regret it one of these days. When I try to look back and remember how the first trimester went, I’m going to be like, “What the hell happened to me for two weeks?” I’ve actually got a pretty good explanation. I’m scared as hell. I’m a little superstitious, too. I think I’m afraid that if I write down what’s happening, it’s like I’m pushing my luck. Like I’m just sneaking under the radar right now but if I say too much about the baby, it’s like God’s going to say..”Oh, yeah! She was supposed to miscarry! Almost forgot to do that one, whoops!” I’m not even religious, so I don’t know where this is coming from.

Next doctor’s appointment is July 9th. We’re supposed to just listen for the heartbeat but I’m really hoping that Doctor B will let us slip in an ultrasound. Arnie wasn’t able to make the last appointment and I really want him to see more than just a picture. And I might want to take a peek myself, possibly.

    I’ve been wondering about you! Can’t wait to hear about your next appointment. Hearing the heartbeat every visit never failed to make me cry.

    Hey…congratulations. I’ve been getting my butt handed to me lately and hadn’t checked any blogs for awhile. (actually hadn’t checked yours since your 2nd post, I’m a bad follower…sowwy!)

    I just saw your news and wanted to let you know I’ll send lots of positive vibes your way and add some prayers :)

    Hang in there…I know you’re scared, that’s normal and don’t beat yourself up over it. We’re all pulling for you!

    I’ll do better at keeping up!
