I'm 32 and my husband and I just got married in May 08 and were planning to TTC starting this May. Well we found out in January that SURPRISE we did conceive. At first, I was scared to death. I wasn't ready yet, that wasn't part of our plan. I had been psyching myself up and preparing for May... And now I'm pregnant.. what do I do.. what about that first anniversary trip we were going to take??... all the what if's kept popping in to my mind. But now, almost 11 weeks in, I'm ready.. I think. LIfe is already beginning to change, but it's exciting.

For me, the excitement and anticipation far outways the anxiety. But one of the things that I'm anxious about it having to be a mom 100% of the time and losing "me" time. Right now, if I have a bad day, I can just go home and watch TV and by lazy. Not the case once the kids come! But I guess when I have kids I'll enjoy coming home to the kids at the end of the day -- even the bad days. Although, I'm sure sometimes I'll still want me time. That's when I'll tell my husband it's his turn to make dinner and get the kids to do their homework. :) <abbr><em>Jenny’s last blog post..<a href="http://jbalow.blogspot.com/2009/02/networking.html" rel="nofollow">Networking...</a></abbr></em> I totally relate to how you know you want to have kids, but you’re anxious about it too.
