Blogging Again: This Time About Pregnancy And Babies

Let's see, where to start... It's been a long time since I've blogged consistently. I haven't started this blog with the intention of people seeing or reading this (beyond maybe a couple of family members or friends); but it occurred to me recently that being pregnant for the first time, I'm probably going through the same things that every other woman has experienced. Although that might be the case, all of this is very new to me; making this unique to my personal experience.

At the same time, I also realized that posting on my current social media accounts about all of these experiences might be either alienating or redundant to some of my friends and family. I figure by creating a separate blog, people who want to know or read about my journey into pregnancy and motherhood can; and those who don't really want to know, can blissfully continue their Social Media experience free of reading things like how my boobs have doubled in size, or that my belly button is already disappearing.

Some of the blogs might be lengthy, and some might just be quick thoughts about how strange all of this is to me. In case you don't know me, I marked this blog as having "adult content". Why? Because I really enjoy cursing, and I'm probably going to talk about bodily functions. While I intend to put an end to my verbal cursing, at least around the baby (because I swear if my baby's first word is "FUCK", I will never forgive myself); I will be cursing online forever... or maybe until my kid obtains their own Social Media accounts... you know, when they're 18, or maybe 21, or 30? 30 seems like an appropriate age for them to have Social Media, right?

 OH, also, this blog will have a lot of sarcasm. For that reason, I am going to moderate comments (you know, if they should occur) in case someone takes things I intend as silly or sarcastic as something serious. Trust me, after reading several other blogs or Social Media page comments, this seems to happen ALL. THE. TIME.

So here goes. Read at your own risk. I'm 36 and pregnant for the first time. I'm almost 21 weeks into this pregnancy already. I am a Jill of all trades; in love with Fantasy and Science Fiction in particular. I fully intend to raise my kid on a healthy dose of Star Wars, Marvel, Disney Classics, and so many other awesome things.

 Lastly, I love coffee, and I will never give it up. Science says I can have up to 12 ounces a day, and I will keep enjoying that one cup forever.
