Intro...

[Mamana24]

I am 24 years old, 25 weeks pg and engaged to the man I have always wanted to be. =)

He is trying hard to be supportive right now but because of a previous relationship in which he was in (the crazy woman told him her baby was his and it wasn't) he is finding my pregnancy very hard to deal with. Sometimes he's great and at other times he withdraws a little. He is Christian and has been praying hard about this. I am doing my best to assure him and will even take a DNA test if he wants me to. Some people don't think I should subject myself to a test if I'm so sure, but its not about me being sure right now, its about him being sure. I have been going to church with him and I am trying to learn about how to be a good Christian. I love being there learning with him and I think my baby does too because she is always moving around during worship songs. =)

Unfortunately because of this whole situation I have not had an easy pregnancy and have a feeling I may be depressed. He of course does not know this and thinks I'm weepy bc I'm pregnant (if he only knew)! I would like to have a homebirth but because up to this point I have not had any support in this matter or much else I will probably end up in a hospital stuck to an IV with a nurse telling me when I have to push. My family lives in another country and I don't have many friends here. I am looking for friends who can give me advice, be there for me and just laugh with me! I just want to share this moment with someone and be there for them too.  I am kind, honest and laid back. I moved to the US in November so I did not have a chance to make many friends at my work place. Well, that was a long intro... hope it wasn't too much!
