I found out on Monday morning, and it was just a touch shocking. Nathan and I are having a little one join our family in April. It took 2 full days for it to truly sink in, and in those two days we had to tell all the soon-enough-to-be-grandparents because we were home. It was scary! We had to explain over and over that we were both going to finish school, that we had a plan to make it work, that it was going to be fine, and that we were happy about it. I know this is not the "ideal" time to become a mother, but at the same time, I don't believe that there is a perfect time. Parenting is never going to be easy, it's just easier when you're more settled in careers and homes.
The more time passes and the more accustomed to the idea that I become, the more excited it get. In about 5 weeks we should *hopefully* be able to hear the baby's heartbeat!
