I'M PREGNANT!

Due Date: October 22, 2008
Currently: 16 Weeks, 1 day, 167 days left

I can officially post this without fearing I will shock people that do not know, in them, I mean work! I just got out of my bosses office and he told me he already knew! Same goes with my office manager! Here is the story as how they found out!

On my first day of work, March 17th, my office manager and another assistant took me out to lunch. While at the restaurant someone I knew sat down next to me. As soon as I saw her, I prayed that she didn't know it was me and I feared that she knew. Well, she did know it was me and yes, she knew! As I sit there with my new fellow employees, she says "hi -at this point I am trying to get her to shut-up, discreetly of course - Congratulations, how are you feeling" yaddi yaddi ya, and I still sit there hoping that no one heard what this woman just said, I think I am in the clear, for the next two months anyway!

I finally become comfortable enough to talk to someone about my great news, I say to her "I'M PREGNANT!" and she said I thought so, I heard that woman your first day! I didn't want everyone at work to know until I felt I was ready because I didn't want to be that girl that starts a new job and then tells them right away that she is pregnant! That’s how my story unfolded, I became that girl when I told the office manager and she informed me that she knew the first day I started.

Along with those select few knowing, the girl I sit next to, I find out she is also pregnant with her first, and that, guess what, IS DUE THE EXACT SAME DAY AS MYSELF! I just can’t get over that and I find it great that we can really relate. Imagine the stories she and I share everyday! I think the whole thing is funny, but I still can’t look people in the face around here without laughing.
