Mate Corner

I’m skipping ahead a little since my last post but it seemed more necessary to get to the point. Cory and I will have been together 5 months tomorrow and we are already on our second pregnancy ‘scare’. I’ve never been regular growing up but have been getting acupuncture treatments to help regulate myself and its been working great but now I’m 12 days late. Granted with the acupuncture its not always exactly 28 days but its usually pretty close. I’ve been getting symptoms of my period for over a week now yet I still haven’t gotten. I’ve taken three tests which were all negative, but it still hasn’t calmed our nerves. We are always very careful but things do happen (i.e. condom tears, slips off, etc). Neither one of us are really ready to be parents yet, I am more that he is. I’ve had years of experience taking care of other peoples children and he doesn’t know the first thing about kids. He is in the process of building a house and this is totally unplanned. We have discussed it and will make things work no matter what. Then we got on the subject of marriage..is he ready? No. Am I ready? Absolutely. Sometimes I worry though–we’ve been together 5 months and haven’t had a single fight–no argument, no disagreement, nothing. Is this a good sign? Or is a huge blow up inevitable?? I already know he is the one I want to marry, but its also a matter of how soon is too soon?? Nothing like getting my mind off marriage but going to a wedding with him this weekend…
