Positive

So... I'm pregnant! I don't think it has yet sunk in, but I'm only in my 6th week now; got plenty of time to get used to it! At the moment I'm trying not to move in case I throw up, as Zac is in the bathroom and I don't relish the idea of puking in the sink :P

I'm getting a few fears, as last time I was pregnant, it kinda went wrong and I lost it before even knowing I was. This was in the 6th week, so every cramp or spasm I have I'm quietly panicking to myself. The man keeps trying to reassure me, but my brain doesn't like to listen to reason when it's already decided!

I am dreading telling my mum, as I can almost picture her face now... dismay, worry, disappointment (I'm nearly 23, not 13, but try telling HER that). Told two of my friends, one of which hates kids with a passion, whose reaction was interesting to watch! Of course she is happy for me, but can't understand why I'm happy, but that's ok :)

Going to ring the doctor tomorrow to start the ball rolling... finding out on the Friday before bank holiday is a bitch!

Symptoms so far (christ it sounds like it's a disease):
  • Large, heavy boobs (first sign, they were bigger than they usually are when I'm about to come on)
  • Tiredness
  • Extreme feelings of hunger if not eaten for a few hours
  • Cramping and tightness
  • slight nausea (only started today)
