Mocha, yeah I totally understand....
My mom and I are close, and I confide in everything to her. I think you hit the nail on the head squarely--her issue is me. She doesn't want to see me suffer, and we've had conversations before where she's like..."you were so upset that Evan was a boy...what would you do it again?" My answer is always, "I will love and take care of him. He's still my child." She just worries about me getting my heart broken, but I have always wanted more than 2 kids, and I'm hoping for a girl, but I really want at least 3, so that's why it makes sense for us to try again.
Jen, thanks for asking about husband's new day job! It's going alright...he's been a little pokey about laundry and dishes; he says he needs some time to get "settled" into his new job, so I'm trying to let him be and not "hover" over him. I just don't like coming home to a sink of dishes when he's been home all day, but he's only been working for a week, and he's trying to catch up on everything, so I'm going to cut him a break for a little bit and just watch, and not crititize.
He told me last night that he thinks I'm pregnant, and he thinks he knows when it happened, (the last time, about 3 days after I was supposed to O) but he won't disclose why he thinks that. I said "why do you say that???" and he just shrugs. Maybe when we had sex the other day and I so wasn't in the mood it got him thinking something was wrong? I've been in a bad mood all week, but not a depression pms-y mood, just in a "I wanna strangle" someone mood.
The stupid last test in the box beckons me, and I may break down and test over the weekend, just because I don't think I can wait until Tuesday now. I was FINE until hubby said that comment. Not to mention this older black lady at my work said the creepiest thing to me yesterday, she said, "I dreamed somebody died. Someone in this building is pregnant. I need to find out who." The crazy thing is she fixed her eyes on me for a long moment and my cheeks actually burned bright red.
I haven't told ANYONE at work about us TTC'ing, just have mentioned that fact that eventually "one day" I'd like to have a 3rd. Isn't that strange?
