Turned out I wasn’t pregnant during those last entries even though I thought I had some symptoms. Then this time around I was pretty sure I wasn’t pregnant until I had a bout of nausea the other day and realized I’m late. Today I was 4-5 days late so I took the test and bam, I’m pregnant.
For a split second the test looked like it would be negative and I realized I was disappointed, and then when it switched I was pretty happy. I called Jack at work and told him and he is so sweet—I can tell he’s happy but he asked me how I was feeling too. I mean I don’t really want to go through pregnancy but I just need to remember that’s the short term, and the long-term I am very happy about. Clara has been absolutely wonderful and I am glad she will have a sibling.
Also enjoyed the following FB conversation with the siblings:
Monica: Hey guys, so I am pregnant FYI. I thought about calling each of you but...it just seemed like a lot of work. Mom knows, Dad doesn't yet.
Neil: I was just wondering the other day when this was coming.
Monica: Yeah, it was getting kind of long between siblings. We decided to aim for having a baby right after Jack finishes finals so he'd be free (summer) the first few months to help
Ellen: WOOHOO! looks like we hit our mark perfectly (HA)
Neil: Clara's one and a half now
Everett: Congrats!
Monica: yeah thanks, she will be 2 years and 2 months when her sibling is born, same age difference as Jack and Dave
Ellen: I wasn't even thinking about this at all for some reason but it totally makes sense! what month?
Monica: May
Ellen: damnit monica
Monica: lol. I just didn't want June, because that's my birthday
