As usual, I have been having computer problems. This time it is two
viruses
that ate my hard drive. I have been offline for over a month, and it will
probably be close to that before I get it back.

And I really miss "talking" to everyone here . . . and I need some support
right now . . .

Because #5 is unexpectedly on the way!

I have told no one IRL yet. Not even my husband, who will not be (I don't
think) pleased. Not that he doesn't want another baby--just a couple of
weeks
ago he said that he would like another, if we didn't have to worry about
money.
He loves babies; he will just be worried about our finances, a fair
worry,
since I don't have medical insurance.

And my sister's wedding is April 17, and here I've been dieting to fit
into my
strapless bridesmaid's dress, and now I'll be 2.5 months pregnant then,
and my
stomach is sticking out already now. I don't want to tell my family
before the
wedding, because I don't want to steal any of the limelight, and because
they
will all freak out with worry after what happened last time.

So I've known for a week, and just feel like I have no one I can tell.
It's a
strange feeling to have such a big secret, that ought to make people
happy, but
that I'm afraid won't. So that's why I came here to tell all of you. :-)

#5 due around November 4

I told an online friend first, I was afraid to tell my husband. Hes batty
over the baby though,head over heels.

Congratulations, Leslie. I am the fourth of five children myself and my
parents wouldn't have traded any one of us for the world.


Thank you, Mary Ellen. I know everyone will love the baby when it
arrives. I
just dread the telling part. :-(

In case that didn't come across quite right ... I am sorry you have to worry
about telling DH and others. All babies should be taken as good news! Or
something like that ... I'm glad you "know" me, since I can't seem to say
this right! xoxo

Yeah, that was possible. But I didnt have to be there to watch,it was easier
that way.Let him get over the shock before he came to me.
Anyway, I emailed it from home and he checked it at home,same computer,lol.

Congratulations on your unexpected little one. I hope once you tell your
DH he is happy. It is almost never a good time to have a baby, there is
always something that could be a problem, or things that could be better.

Best wishes

On re-reading my post it sounds awful and not what I meant at all.

What I meant was, for most people there never *seems* to be a perfect
time to have a baby. However, when they are concieved, they are always
precious gifts and babies bring so much joy. Congratulations!

Larissa
who has not had enough sleep of late due to her precious gifts!

Wow Leslie, Congratulations! Double wow! I hope you feel able to tell
your husband soon and that he can feel the calm tide over him and not
worry about money.
