We haven't even told our parents yet.  She wants to wait until we get an ultrasound picture, which isn't until the middle of March.  But I can't keep this a secret for that long!   I hope she's starting to come around with the idea of just telling the folks for now.  The rest of the family will have to wait until that ultrasound picture.

You guys won't mind if I come on here and give updates from time to time or let off a little steam or just try to get ideas from you, will ya?  This place has kind of turned into a retreat of sorts for me.  Its nice to have guys like you around. 

Daycare is very expensive so if possible, would try to find an alternative. Many times family will step in and assist with this. I wouldn't stress too much about this right now as you don't want to overload yourself with stress which turns into fear. Take baby steps (no pun intended-well, maybe a little). Prioritize those things you have to do and just start knocking them out a little here and there.

You can bend our ears here all you want. Most of us care about more important things than football.
