So, I've had a big secret since I moved to Sunrise. After I decided to switch to mornings, I learned I was pregnant. Talk about timing. Can you say morning sickness?!?! (I have an unbelievable morning sickness story that I'll save for another blog...)
I never let on at work, even when I was battling nausea. The only one who figured it out before I let the cat out of the bag was Steve Uyehara. Actually, it's funny how he put two and two together. We interviewed a psychic about her predictions for 2011. After our segment, she stuck around and did personal readings. For me, she said I would be very busy around the house in 7 months. My reaction clearly gave me away as I did the math and put that timeline right around my due date. Steve whispered to me "are you pregnant?" I swore him to secrecy until my second trimester.
I had a hunch it's a girl because of the old wives' tales about morning sickness, but didn't know for sure until Valentine's Day. That's when we got the good news. My due date is August 19th, just 12 days before my son Kai's 3rd birthday.
I shared the news on Sunrise this morning. I knew the secret would be out soon now anyhow so I wanted to go public before everyone started speculating or worse, assuming I'd just packed on pounds. Body by Sunrise we joke. Luckily, this is my second time around so I have the maternity clothes ready to roll.
