I spent the entire day with my mother.

And didn't tell her. It was tortuuuuure! I was feeling sick & tired and she's worried now I have the flu. Not to mention this woman is so involved that she asked me if I started bc I was due today. I babbled something about cramping. It will be worth it to surprise her at Thanksgiving but my god it took all I had.

ha, way to stay strong! It will definitely be worth it when you finally suprise her.

I don't know if I could have stayed as strong! Your family will be so happy when you tell them!!

How are you going to tell her? Anything specific or just tell her you can't drink gin or vodka when she offers it to you?

Way to keep strong Hedi - yes it will sooo worth the suprise!

OMG! That is such torture. I totally relate- my mom is like a BF to me so keeping anything from her is impossible! I'm way impressed with your restraint but a Thanksgiving Suprise is way worth it! BTW- how are you feeling? Also- I'm just so curious to as did you think you were pregnant this cycle before you poas or did you think you were out?

I bought a bunch of "sneak peak" u/s pic frames I'll wrap and give them. With our struggles it will be water works all around. I just have to catch them all before the get shiitfaced.

I'm a little ill. My stomach is icky. Truth be told: I knew something was different this cycle. My lack of phantom symptoms were the first sign & no cramping which is huge for me before AF. The other thing is that I had ridiculous globs of creamy CM 8dpo. Very weird.

Wow! I couldnt have done it! It is so going to be worth keeping the secret until Thanksgiving day!

That's willpower, but you're right, it will totally be worth it!

Do you think they'll display the u/s pic in the house? I have to admit my MIL has DS's u/s pic displayed in her bedroom and I find it a little....weird. Like, "hi, that's my uterus on your shelf".

no my MIL would think it's tasteless. She'll put it in the drawer and tell me " the picture is nice dear. Let's just keep it in the family" bless her & her conservative-ness. My mom will not only display it but also copy the pic & dangle it from her key ring & around her neck in a locket.

Does your mom not know you have a blog? Do any of your friends know? Just wondering because I don't think my mom would know what a blog is, but I suppose not all moms are so technically clueless.
