Pregnancy Journals... do you have one?
|
Hi, I'm using my journal for my book-in-progress, a guide to surprise pregnancy for women. Other books talk about pregnancy in glowing and euphemistic terms, I'm going to tell you about the weird shit that goes down. Most books assume you tried for this baby and are singing about rainbows and sunshine when you find out. I'm talking about the challenges, decisions, and emotions that come with a surprise pregnancy as you are navigating a career and an adult life.
I myself have had 2 surprise pregnancies, and made two wildly different decisions about them. I was enormously frustrated to find all the books on the market either assumed I was expecting this baby and was thrilled at the prospect, or was 15 years old and got knocked up in the back of a Chevy. Nothing out there dealt with being an adult woman with an established career and no plans for a kid at the time. In talking with other women, I found I wasn't alone, just not talked about.
Please come and read my stuff. It going to be updated at least once a week. I'd love to hear feedback, your own stories,suggestions, whatever!
