Grand Opening
[This was the first post on Sadie’s blog, when it existed.]
I think I’ve done all the fussing with the page I can bear, so I guess that means it’s time for the grand opening!
I spent a long time thinking about whether I actually wanted to do this, and I came to the conclusion that I needed *someplace* to talk about what’s going on with this crazy creating-a-whole-new-person-out-of-two-half-cells-thing. My friends who have been pregnant before expect me to take it all in stride and don’t want to hear about it (or worse, offer bad advice based on what *their* doctor told them), the ones who haven’t think I’m crazy and don’t want to hear about it, and the rest are men. Heh. But even though the human race has been doing this for a lot of years, each time still feels like the first time to the woman experiencing it--especially when it is the first time for her.
Er, not to mention that I’m a blogging addict.
So this is where you’ll find me (and hopefully my husband, from time to time) posting about the joys of impending parenthood, including the bits that you may or may not really want to know. We’re starting almost in the middle here, so there should be plenty of backtracking to keep this thing fresh even when there isn’t much new to report.
Thanks for stopping by.
