I’m constantly doing research on what I should and shouldn’t be eating preconception and right after conception. There is so much to know that it makes my head spin! I always worry because of the state of our food industry is a little shaky–multiple food recalls, imports being tainted, etc. But then I wonder if the food was any better (or safer) in the 80s when I was conceived and born? Were the hormones regulated then as much, or were they not used as widely? Am I freaking out about nothing, really? I almost hope so, but I’ll still keep researching.

Obsessing
I feel like I’m becoming a little obsessed with everything baby–names, clothes, toys, carriers, etc. And we’re not even trying yet!
Perhaps it’s the planner in me–need to get everything ready ahead of time. Or it’s just in my personality to want to know everything there is to know about this so I won’t be surprised. But I know I will be surprised…a lot, I’m sure.
Though I am fully aware of the fact that I am not yet pregnant, I know (OK, I hope) I will be within the next year. I’m a planner–someone who thinks ahead, sometimes to a fault–and my iGoogle’s links are getting much too full. I need some place to think out loud, to link, and to be.
It’s tough, wanting to have a baby but knowing it’s so far away. I’m keeping this blog private until the time comes to make an announcement to the world. Perhaps all these writings will be irrelevant then. No worries. It will get me through till then.
