I know, I know ~ I've been a very bad blogger of late. And a very bad Novel Racer too, in terms of both the WIP and participating in the coffee breaks.
I've also been a useless friend and spouse, in that I've barely socialised for three months, and I've delegated all household tasks to my wonderfully uncomplaining husband.
I have an excuse, though. I'm pregnant: 12 weeks and 5 days, as I write this. And after my miscarriage in January of this year I never thought I'd be lucky enough to pass the 12 week mark. It still hasn't quite sunk in. But I'm pleased, very very pleased.
I've paid for it, though ~ nausea, exhaustion, sore (.) (.)'s & other assorted unpleasant symptoms that I probably shouldn't go into here (those of you who have been pregnant will know what they are, and for those of you who haven't yet experienced it, well I don't want to put you off!)
I'm hoping that the second trimester will see an upsurge in energy levels and blogging, writing and general participation in the real world can resume ~ sadly I missed Tracey Chevalier at my local library last night: it started at 7:30, but I was already fast asleep by 7:20........

Oh Kate I am so delighted by your news! Really chuffed to bits for you. And I know exactly what you are talking about in the first trimester, though it seems so far away for me now. I got an upsurge in energy and it wasn't until I was 29/30 weeks ( just over a month ago) that I really felt pregnant, being slow and ungainly and knackered!
Don't push yourself too much though during this time, save some energy for later.
Congrats again. x
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
Oh I'm so, so pleased for you! Many, many congratulations :o)
Yay! Congratulations to you! it does get better. Honestly it does. The tiredness will go away and you will want to way more stuff that you probably should!

It's sinking in, slowly but surely!

Oh, hurrah, fantastic! And that's just the delegating ;-) Sorry to hear about the horrid bits but it'll be worth it come *pauses to count on fingers* the end of April. Congratulations!
Sorry, boring admin comment. We're guessing you didn't see Liz's recent post on the Novel Racers asking for people's intentions for 2009. Please could you have a look at the post here http://novelracers.blogspot.com/2008/11/race-2009.html and leave a comment to let us know what you'd like to do? Or if you'd prefer to let us know 'off the record', feel free to email me at the address on my blog, or JJ at the address on hers. (I would have sent this by email with a cc to JJ, but I couldn't find an email address for you.) Thanks.
Hurrah!
Second stage is so much easier. You can drink coffee again and your skin will be the envy of the civilised world. Believe me.
