So firstly let me introduce myself.  I am andrea and i am pregnant.  Yay! Everybody say yay!

Thank you, i too am excited. Or at least pleased. Or at least pleasantly shocked and terrified.  My boyfriend and i were trying to get pregnant. Or rather we tried once and to our shock and dismay it worked.  But you know it was kind of now or never because i'm 39.  I just turned 39 this week.  i look younger. Especially if you look at my disposition. I have the maturity of a much younger woman.  But my ovaries are 39 no matter how retarded i act.  What kind of a mature woman still says retarded. see?

So i found out very early.  i was only about 4 weeks when i peed on a stick. This is the stick! it still has pee on it!

So now i'm 8 weeks which is still very early. We haven't even told the wider public yet. Just our close friends, and our families, and now the internet.

It is soooooooooo weird and interesting and more than anything else I would really like to talk about all the strange shit happening to my body.  But you can't spend all your time telling your friends and family about the amazing difference between the dry heaves of pregnant puking and the dry heaves of college puking.  They really just want to hear the mushy stuff. Have you thought about what you are going to name it?  Are you going to  find out if it's a boy or a girl? Are you guys getting married?

but i want to talk about heart palpitations! and my amazing new sense of smell! And my enormous boobs and puffy nipples! And the wretched taste that i now have in my mouth all the time starting yesterday at 3 o clock!

So that's what this site is for.  i want to kvetch.  I want to complain!  I want toooooo bitchbitchbitch!!!!!!!

Who's with me?
