Timing

 When is the right time to have a child? I always planned out a few things that are not super compatible with having a child: Starting a company Riding a motorbike from London to Sydney Riding a motorbike across Europe into Mongolia via Iran Flying the first hydrogen powered aeroplane from Australia to Europe While some of these can still be done with a child the motorbike trips and flying are a bit too risky. So we have to bring some kind of ordering into this decision making process. We can fly planes when we are 60, we can ride motorbikes at 50 if we look after ourselves, having a child has a shorter timeline that if missed is not reverseable.

The shock of finding out your girlfriend is pregnant

After a lunch time catch up with some friends and a beer or two who also happened to be on holiday in Bali I returned to our hotel, my girlfriend acting a little suspiciously pulled out what at first I thought was a foreign COVID test but was a pregnancy test. At first I was shocked, is this real? Is the test a cheap foreign one that does't work, and a few other thoughts of denial. Quickly this turned to a "do we keep it" thought but I knew my girlfriend wanted a child. We hugged and just layed on the bed thinking for a while. My thoughts covered the range of: What if the child is born with defects? How will this change our relationship? What if I convince her to abort? How will this affect our finances? How will this affect my free time? Is the test legit? This is a lot to process.

First Doctor Appointment

6 weeks in and today we had the first doctor appointment, pretty seamless overall but the doctor did ask a few very detailed questions on period blood quantities and dates of conception, I felt my girlfriend was a little awkward with one or two of these. Went directly from the doctor to the pathology lab for a screen of tests, first to confirm pregnancy, then a number of vitamin levels, a full sexually transmitted infection test, and to determine my girlfriends blood type which she didn't know. This is starting to seem more real, more concrete. Girlfriend also has a tiny pot belly at about 6 weeks in, but our current timeline is a guess.
