May 19th
Today I am 5 weeks 4 days pregnant and weighed 156.5lbs this morning. Other than being tired today I really didn’t feel very ‘pregnant’ although we shared the news with many of our friends. This was much earlier than we expected to share the news with anyone but I was at a bachelorette party the other evening and a patron of the bar bought the table a round of drinks. Our server made her round getting all the orders and I said I didn’t want anything and she gave me a look like ‘He paid for it, you HAVE to’ so I said I couldn’t drink and she patted my belly and I nodded and half of the table that saw exploded with shock! But we managed to keep it on our end of the table as not to make the evening about me and to keep all eyes and attention on the bride to be. Today was the wedding and a few people mentioned it and the word spread through the family. We still have not told our family. Id like to wait until I’m at least 12 weeks in case I miscarry. Untelling people is really hard. We had more than one person comment that we need to get a TV in our bedroom. My husband also got some good advice on vasectomies, which made me laugh. We had actually discussed him getting vasectomy several months ago but he never went through with making an appointment.
