But the other big event – it was my son’s first day at school today. Thank god for the one month training, he woke up easily at 6 am and was all ready by 7:30 am. He was very excited about his uniform, shoes, socks and of course the new water bottle. So it was a great start and he was in an awesome mood. But boy did the mood change once he saw his classroom?? U bet it did and it obviously would. The classroom looked no less than a torture camp but 30 odd kids wailing, screaming running towards their parents. It was a scary scene and obviously son was petrified – he clung to his dad and refused to go in and when was finally taken he started crying. My poor baby – he had been so excited, I was heartbroken and tears swelled up in my eyes too as I saw him standing and crying feeling lost. Anyways the doors of the classroom were shut and we were asked to wait outside for an hour. Husband was pissed at the school management and I kept telling him that son dear would be fine. And fine he was!! After an hour when we went to pick him up – while most of the kids were still crying, our lil champ was busy with 3 other kids scribbling on the backboard, chatting with a teacher. He looked at us and yet was not in a mood to come out of class When he finally did, he said ‘I had lots of fun ! I spoke to Aditi because she was not crying’ ! We were relieved and happy.. All that we want is that he is happy in school and enjoys it !! God bless him ! And of course he is getting a surprise gift today !

22nd June- Son starts school. Big day for all of us!

4 July – My first visit to the OB I will eventually consult.

8 July – 8 weeks pregnant. Somewhere around this time will go for a heart beat check of the baby.

5 Aug – 12 weeks pregnant ! Will feel more relieved if everything has gone well till this day.

 8 Aug – NT scan for Down’s syndrome screening. Hope everything comes out fine.

Wish me luck for all of these dates above..

Today I am having terrible lower back ache(gets worse when I lie down or sit). Had occasional cramps during my first pregnancy but this seems worse than any of those and I seldom had ‘back aches’ those days – it used to be just cramps here and there. But this one is a proper lower back ache. Have spent all afternoon reading up on net and while some say that it could be a sign of trouble – miscarriage, ectopic etc, some say that it is perfectly normal. Well what is the case with me only time can tell and I guess I cant do much about it either ways..what has to happen will happen and I dont think anybody can do much about it. The best I can do is share my concerns with someone, vent and pray..

Today is actually my scheduled day for AF and I kept showing + till today morning.

So wish me luck as I start this journey !

Ok so here I go. I am a mom of a 3 year old. He is fun and adorable when he is not throwing tantrums or doesn’t get into his “no” spree. I am a geek, for answers to everything in life including how to raise a kid – I turn to the web. In this blog I plan to share my life as a mom, as a working mom, as a mom who wants to do her best but sometimes (ok all the times) is worried sick she isn’t doing enough…
