The secret's out



About a month ago, I wrote a post mentioning big life changes.
A few people commented and emailed asking me to be more specific, but I knew that I couldn't or else everyone would find out. I just wasn't quite ready for people to know yet.
It's so exciting though, I didn't really WANT to keep it a secret.
But now, I don't have to anymore.



This is Baby A :)
We were VERY surprised, as we were not trying to get pregnant. We are so happy/ecstatic/overwhelmed.
I had always heard that you never know a love like a mother's love for her child, and it's SO true. I am beside myself over this kid.

I found out I was pregnant [by home pregnancy test] on October 31st, and had it confirmed November 1st. Needless to say, I have had to keep my mouth shut for a LONG time. It was such a hard thing to do! But now I feel free. Because today I saw my baby for the first time, and the nurse told me that everything is progressing wonderfully. All the nervousness/paranoia went away. Please keep me in your thoughts and/or prayers during this pregnancy, and if you have any tips for parenthood, feel free to email me at jaksart [at] rocketmail [dot] com

I'm like retard excited for you and baby!!! You are going to be a great mama and the only advice I have is just wing it. Nobody knows what they are doing and you just do what feels right to you and it'll work out. You have to keep us all updated (and me especially). I already have a box of baby awesome started!!

OH MY GOSH HOW FREAKIN EXCITING!!!!! Congratulations!!!! The only advice I can give is fuck what other people think. Do what you feel in your gut, trust your instinct and no matter what nobody does it "right." Don't take other people's opinions too much into consideration because it will make you crazy!!! Trust yourself! You'll be a great mommy!!!!!
