Here we go again
Dee is pregnant again,she took redundancy last week.Timing, it must be said, is not this family's strong point.
I don't know if I'll keep this up, I certainly didn't last time but at the minute I don't know how I feel about it.We have a perfect child, one who slept through more than any child I know, one who is so pretty it makes people stop in the street.A child who's personality has erupted out of her.
I have said,for over a year now, that I didn't want another baby and I don't know if thats true. I know we cant afford this one, but I also know I am excited to meet them.
(This new one is called Scrappy Doo,I may explain if I ever post again.)
To finish up, may I say, this development is huge.

Spent a lot of today downloading and listening to Otis Redding and Al Green.
Any day when you can do that has gotta be a good day.
Last night Dee was really sick , vomiting up what sounded like here pelvis.
Her nipples are constantly hard and she is either too cold, or too warm, she has a sense of smell like wolverine and hates the smell of things she didn't mind a month ago.
I really don't know how women go through this a second time

Pregnancy and grandparents
We told our parents this weekend and as expected they were all thrilled.
On Saturday we went over to my parents and I told my sister, mam and dad by saying "we were going to go away in April next year but it wouldn't be fair to bring a newborn to the sun".Cue 20 seconds of stunned silence and frozen expressions followed by a lot of happiness hugs and tears.
Sunday was the in-laws, it was her dad's birthday so we were there anyway.I will talk about this later.

Pregnant women;pregnancy makes you scary.
You terrify me as a species, the fact you deal with all the stuff the pregnancy throws at you and still continue to have children baffles me.Dee's oversensitive nipples and veiny boobs would be enough to send me running to bed for the day, to say nothing of the ... well you know the rest of them.
By and large I find pregnant women sexy, not sure why, could be the "they had sex" hangup from early adolescence, but is most likely cos of Demi Moore.My hat is off to the lot of you.If men were the one to have babies they would be grown in a lab, or a flower pot, because no man would do it a second time.

Up The Duff, A Father To Be's Blog 2
The first post is really a memory jogger for a ways down the line.I want to try and put my feelings and emotions into words if I can, use this as an outlet to see how I am feeling about the arrival, next April, of bean.
I am;
Thrilled
Scared shitless
Overprotective
Smiling a hell of a lot
Ringing Dee far too often to check on her
Being too nice to her, making her tea and such.
Horny as a motherfucker
I do not know how people survive a 9 month pregnancy, my nerves are shredded and I am in week 7 , and in week 2 of knowing.Every burp, cough or even shift on the couch has me asking her if she is ok.I am waking 6 or 7 times a night to check on her.I am not sleeping and as I have said I won't drink beer at home until bean is born I am staying frighteningly sober.Tired and sober is not a good look for me I have to say, and by April I will look like Christian Bale in "the machinist"
THE "M " WORD
Miscarriage terrifies the shit out of me, I don't know if I could cope with it , I don't know if Dee could cope, and if I am being honest , I don't know if our relationship could cope with it.
THE OTHER "M" WORD
We are broke, have been for a while, there will be no new money coming in, Dee will be out of work , and then there is the cost of child-minders.This child will be on the breast until free milk in primary school (note to self, check to see if they still give out free milk).I am considering working Saturdays to free up a weekday but keep wages the same, I am considering a second job, hell I am considering selling my damn liver, now the booze has drained out of it.
This is a scary ass time, and I do not know how kids in a new relationship, or girls not in a relationship ,work up the courage to tell their parents.My parents and my in-laws are all going to be thrilled to bits and I am still nervous about telling them.
