It’s All Official and Stuff

Well, it’s official. I am, indeed, pregnant. At this point, I’m just five weeks along. I have my first prenatal visit, with the prenatal nurse (not the Ob yet) in just under two weeks.
I find myself having little mini fits of panic over the stupidest things. This morning, it was over the fact that I’m not sick. There are “studies” that say that how sick you are indicates how well the pregnancy is going. I know from other reading I’ve done and from people I’ve spoken to that not being sick can be a completely normal sort of thing (statistics say it only affects 50% to 80%), but it was still bugging me until I dug around on the Internet and found posts by dozens of women saying they never had even a smidgen of sickness, or anything else, in their first trimester.
I guess I get to look forward to nine months of trying not to worry about stupid things. Hah. Maybe it’ll be good for my stress management skills.
