(DISCLAIMER: I’m about to start this article with a polarizing statement—my astrological sign. Keep your opinions to yourself…or comment them after reading :) )

I’m a libra. With that, comes inevitable indecisiveness. I weigh all the options, but sometimes I speak too soon. Sometimes I speak before my mind is made up, forcing me to double back and find my true intention. This is one of those times.

I got lazy. I was tired. I wanted a way out of sitting with my thoughts at my laptop and writing every few days. Because of this, I made a promise that I must now break. I’m sorry. I revisited the first few pregnancy diaries—you know, the ones that I said I would republish to remind myself of the genesis of this publication. Well, I’m not going to do that after all. Well, not publicly at least. I changed my mind. And I’m told that I’m allowed to do that. So, I’m putting it into practice.
