Eight weeks, four days. Day 62 in the quest to chase our little miracle
I have now known for two full weeks that i am pregnant, and only now is the real excitement setting in... And the nerves...
I have waited so long for this moment, for this time where we get to think about all the things that we never got to think about before, but how soon is too soon to start planning? To start researching... I dont mean all the boring stuff like finances, i am talking about the FUN stuff, you know, the baby nursary, the cots, the prams, the redecorating, painting... The baby shower... THE NAMES? OMG we will be responsible for naming a HUMAN! EKK... (thats where the nerves set in, oh that and labor, but thats another blog another time)
How long do i wait before i start planning that stuff? Before we start discussing names? I cant wait to go shopping for baby stuff to start decorating the room, i know that is already done in my head, i know exactly what i want, but you know, the reaserching on line, the shopping, oh the buying of baby stuff...
Is it too soon, should i wait longer before i get excited, before i start setting things in concrete, or should i dare to show my excitement, dare to discuss the previously undiscussable topics?
Oh the possiblilties are endless, if i start now... i may just change my mind one thousand and one times before i actually get to decorate and shop...
And the sad thing is, i am just excited that i get to write that i am excited!
Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning. Gloria Steinem
