Pregnancy, described in time frames of 4 weeks.

We won't tell anybody anything new, when we tell you that after Bram was born, we have consulted several specialists and thought deeply about our family planning. The issue was that we wanted to determine if our wish to have more children of ourselves would be sensible. We were not completely sure if Wilma's health would be seriously endangered if she would get pregnant again.

week 1 to 4 We don't know anything yet.
week 5 to 8 Mixed emotions
week 9 to 12 The pregnancy feels more and more real day by day. Also keeping this a secret gets to be a difficult task..
week 13 to 16 Move, first visit to the ob/gyn and announcement.
week 17 to 20 My energy seems to be back, the weather improved: I enjoy!
week 21 to 24 Shoot! Also this time people just don't seem to believe that I actually am pregnant. ;-)
week 25 to 28 The disbelievers have fortunally become very rare now. I have written down a story about the possibilities we have with labour and what's common in the US. This mostly because this is so different from what our Dutch audience is used too ;-)
week 29 to 38 Starts off with being ashamed for not keeping records faithfully, explains the choice on delivery preference we made and how things went on of course
week 39 and 40 And this is how we went on..
