Eloise's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
March 9, 1999
Spent the weekend at Ballarat - the town where my husband and I grew
up - visiting my mother. For the first time since doing the deed, JK and I
actually acknowledged that it’d happened and we talked a little about how we
felt. I told him about the "factory" feeling I‘d experienced the two
mornings after we DTD and he told me that if it has happened then he feels
okay about, calm and ready.
Strangely enough I feel calm about the whole thing too. I thought I’d feel really impatient - totally obsessed with whether I am or am not pregnant - but I feel really lackadaisical about it. I haven’t thought about it much and I’m happy to just bide my time and wait the few weeks before I can do a test and find out. This is not like me at all!! But perhaps it’s because I already have my suspicions…
I told JK I expect to really know later this week when implantation is supposed to occur and all the hormones start kicking in. I’d be sure I’d feel the physical changes taking place inside me then. But the truth is I already feel as though something is going on down there. I suspect my sense of taste has changed - herbal teas seem to taste a little different.
So, although I’m not game yet to mention anything definite to JK (just in case my over-active imagination is playing tricks on me), I suppose deep inside I’m quite convinced I’ve fallen…
Until next time,
All the best.
