I can understand with you when it comes to you and your mom's relationship changing a bit. I know with my twin boys I got pregnant just before I turned 19, yes its young to some people, but to me its all about when your ready, and I got married right after my 18th birthday which is on July 1st canada day!!
But anyways my parents were not shocked, but were kinda not happy, but as I started to show, and you could feel them move and what not my mom and dad started to be happy with it, and then my mom was in the delivery room with me, and it was great. But now she is the happiest grandma, still thinks she is too young, but loves to talk about them and buy them things. Haven't had to buy them clothes yet, mind you at my baby shower I had 21 people and got lots of clothes.

Keeks,
The apartment is 1,234 square feet big, and it's set up like a small house! you walk into the great room, and then there is a hallway that leads to the backside of the apartment, where the non-galley style kitchen is (I'm soo excited, I adore cooking and baking and it's bigger!!!!) it's an open kitchen, more of what you would see in a house. And then there is a breakfast bar and a dining room, with an over head light where a table should be centered, and a patio with sliding glass doors behind that. Now backtrack to the great room when you first come in again. If you go down the hall a couple feet then turn left, you lead off to a full guest bathroom, and two bedrooms. The master bedroom is 10 feet x 11 feet (sorry about the non-metric here!), and the one we will use for a music room/library (and hopefully a nursery soonish) is 10 feet by 10 feet. In the master bedroom, there is a nice shower, a humongous counter top and huge mirror that could have 4 people doing make up in front of it at one time, one sink, and lots of cupboard space. If you go back to the great room and go right, there is a very large laundry room! and a linen closet or something. There is also a good sized coat closet as well.
And this apartment is brand new, we can paint it any way we choose (as long as it goes back to white before we move) and it's cheaper than the smaller one we live in now!!!! Man, that's a lot of info, I hope you guys can envision all this! :)
Tianna,
thank you for that. I needed to hear that, even though I already know in my heart that no one can ever be fully ready, especially with a new child staring them in the face. :) I've been hearing that a lot of places lately actually, which kind of makes me think my time is coming soon.
Now comes a chant that I have stuck in my head...."BE aggressive, B-E aggressive, BE aggressive, B-E aggressive...." anyone hear this cheerleader chant at their high school? :P Good luck ttc, and have peace in your heart that all things will work out the way they are supposed to, not necessarily how we think they are supposed to.
Love

Tianna ~ My Fiance works for the Canadian Coast Guard , so he is gone for 4 weeks & home for 4 weeks....Its a good deal in the sense he gets 6 months off paid & we have full benefits & all that , plus he can retire in 25 years of service with them , with a full pention , He also builds up whats called "laydays" and "sick days" and can use them to take time off , so this year for instance , while a few of the boats were on re-fit he used his laydays and ended up only having to work for a total of 4 weeks from November until April.....He went away for a week for training ( paid training at that lol ) and then he did two seperate 2 week trips to fill in for someone who was sick.....So aside from the fact I miss him more than anything it does have its benefits to us & our family...........What does your Husband do for work?......Do you work as well or?.......Sorry to hear your not completely close to your family or inlaws.....makes it hard im sure! .......Sounds like you & your husband are content with having eachother & sometimes thats all you need! Its awesome you guys have eachother & im sure once you get pregnant your gonna have one lucky little baby!
Katebud ~ Your apartment sounds awesome! Im so jealous & the fact you can paint how you want is totaly cool!!......Thats my one wish is we could paint the babys room here , but they wont let us :(......I cant believe your rent is cheaper for the bigger place thats such an added bonus! Your kitchen sounds awesome too! gotta love lots of counter space to bake & stuff....Im so excited for you!!!......Your gonna have such fun making it your own :).......You know it is true I think , that your never fully ready......We thought we were , had lots of the big things bought & totaly wanted it more than life itself , but when you see that little + on the HPT , it all becomes so surreal....and im finding the closer I get to delivery the more I realize we have to do and the more I panick LOL.....Its horrible how the weeks seem to just fly by but the time to do everything goes even faster.....It all happens in good time , and im sure once you get settled into your new apartment and set your focus on that , it will happen , your mind & stress level are gonna be on something else for the first little while and thats gonna be a HUGE help I think for you in getting pregnant!........My fingers are crossed for you hun!!!!!
Jamie ~ Yeah I dont know what it is about my mom & I , were closer in a different way , we arent really close in the sense of the baby though , because she really wasnt happy about it at first , so its kinda hard to talk to her about alot of it , but shes come with me to ultrasounds & she will be in the delivery room ......I have a hard time talking about alot of things to do with my pregnancy with family because they all didnt expect it I guess.....No one is mad or anything , but I think they all had hopes I would have gone to college & been married first.....but they all know how much my fiance & I love eachother & that were doing everything we can possibly do to get ready for the baby so they are great about it..........I guess its just more so akward..........How were you with talking to your dad about pregnancy? or like your grandparents?.......I have no problems talking with friends or my fiance , just family.....Its so odd!.....Is your mom excited about the pregnancy this time??.

Aww thats so nice, yea i understand what you mean about missing him though. I miss my husband like craziness after a single day of not having him around! I'm so attached! haha, well I dont work right now, i havent in a long while. My husband (Sam) supports me and we get by just fine, i really thought our baby would come sooner so thats why i havent really been doing anything, i figured by now i would for sure be a full time mommy. Well, at least i have a ton of time to relax and read and do things for me, a stressful job probably wouldn't help much with ttc. I'm just trying to see the up side of this. Its a painful little reminder everytime anyone asks why i don't work, what am i going to say? "I was planning on being a stay at home but turns out im infertile" Yea no, ill pass on that. So i politely say im thinking about my options, or make something up, when really Im waiting on this baby to be my job =) Lets hope i get it soon, if i dont get pregnant on this fertilaid, i think i'll give it maybe 6 months, and if still nothing, i know i'll be crushed and i'll take a break from ttc for the first time in what will be 3 years by then. If indeed that happens (lets pray it doesnt) ill just get some part time job to keep busy, and start taking classes at the city college, maybe i'll be a teacher? I'd love to work with children.
So thats my plan, sorry it was a bit long. By the way, My husband is a tattoo artist. And no he doesnt have like full sleeves, or tattoos all over the place, his arent even visible, he has a portrait of me on his thigh! How cool right!
So thats that. =)
