A Not-So-Big Secret

Written 05/10/10

It was our plan with Keelin not to tell anyone until after the first ultrasound. That plan quickly went out the window because how could be keep such a BIG secret from family and close friends. This time the secret does not feel so big. I don’t think we are any less excited just a lot more clam. I manage to go about my day functioning like normal and think about things other than my uterus. Don’t get me wrong I am excited, and every so often it comes to mind and makes me happy but it is not all encompassing like last time. I’m so much more relaxed this time and that makes my days so much more enjoyable. I don’t hold my breath every time I go to the bathroom, I don’t sit and analyze every cramp and symptom or lack there of. What I think about most is the fact that so much about this person has already been decided, the sex, color of eyes and hair, shape of lips and nose and toes, and I love that it is truly amazing.
