Pocketful of Hope

Yesterday I told my therapist we were expecting (she was shocked!) and I called my midwife, Jill, (who is never shocked). It was good to get those things out of the way. Jill asked if I was feeling hormonal and my answer is "Heck yeah"! I am actually a mess. I end up on the couch crying every night. I had to make some new rules for myself. No projects in the evening, lower my expectations for myself to be more realistic, and go to bed early. If I can follow those I might be able to prevent the crying at night. I'm getting a cold too, so that doesn't help. I've always been such a night owl so this is going to be a switch, but I think my body has already made the switch and I haven't been paying attention.
