Jen's pregnancy journal

An introduction
Writing a pregnancy diary is something I have often thought about doing,
even to the point of buying a blank book when I was pregnant with my son. I
never actually did it though, with no really good reason for why. Now that
Nancy and Betsy have asked me to contribute weekly comments on this
pregnancy, I have the perfect impetus.
This is my second pregnancy and we a thrilled and apprehensive and excited and nervous and giddy and scared, just like last time. I am 31 and I live in North Carolina with my husband of eight years and our three-year-old son. We are recent transplants to the area: we spent the last thirteen years around the Boston and New Haven areas, but I was born and raised in Phoenix. Day-to-day, I am a technical writer for a computer software company, and my biggest hobbies are knitting and reading. I also enjoy skiing, sailing, and photography.
