I'm pregnant!

After three weeks of 'temping' and religiously following my chart on Fertility Friend, I can report that I did a pregnancy test on Saturday, and it was positive. My initial plan was to keep it secret, then tell husband on Sunday (Father's Day) but I couldn't wait longer than the hour. It hasn't sunk in. It doesn't seem real at all. Baby is due around 21 February.

I feel really ill - have been 'off' all weekend, tired, no appetite, feeling queasy. I don't think it is pregnancy-related because I think it is far too early to have proper symptoms. More likely I think I have some kind of bug, but it has given me a taste of how difficult it will be looking after Elizabeth if I am feeling rough!

She has got plenty of words now:

knee, keys, please (peas!), hooray, juice, star... in addition to all her usual ones.
