My wife is pregnant

Post by Hercanic »

Some of you know my wife, Vanessa. She's posted here on occasion, and she regularly plays League of Legends. We've been together for 10 years, 5 years married.

Yesterday, we found out she was pregnant. Nausea and a late period, two test sticks showed positive. Today she went to the doctor and had it officially confirmed via ultrasound. She is with child, 4 weeks. Although not planned, we've been together long enough that this is a very happy occasion. There are plenty of worries and challenges ahead, and it doesn't feel fully real just yet. Our lives will be changing. Nervous, anxious, hopeful, and excited. A bundle of emotions quake within. Right now, Vanessa is doubled-over and moaning, "What did you do to meee?!"

Suddenly, I've become acutely aware that each day from now on will become a memory held dear.

My condolences. Every memory that I bump into is going to be tarnished forever.

Haha, I'm glad you at least got stable footing in your living arrangements by now. I see V on league all the time but you are nowhere to be seen. I guess that trend is going to continue to the point I will no longer see either of you at all ever again. :3

Good luck.

Congratulations, Herc! Best of wishes to your growing family!

Stay strong for Vanessa, and don't take all the dissent too personally. It'll all be worth it in the end! Good luck on this new and fascinating journey through what will amount to be a life of adventure and fulfillment.

Thanks!

At the moment, Vanessa just wants to eat saltine crackers and watch The Price is Right. Keep in mind, in our 10 years together, she has never once watched the show. She just has a weird urge right now. A Japanese lotion commercial made her cry. She doesn't even cry during sappy movies. What's happening to my wife?!?

^ The baby is real because the emotions from that Japanese commercial are real.

Congratulations, Hercanic!

Psh! Don't congratulate that fool. He's not doing any of the work. His "work" is long done. He does nothing but tease me now. Yesterday he implied that I should put a paper bag on my head. >:( With all the hormones coursing through my body, I'm about to go full Hulk on his ass. Instead of "Hercanic" it should be "Jercanic".

Lav, make it so!
