The BIG News

After a two-week hiatus from blogging, I'm BACK! The past 2-weeks had been quite hectic because of the last minute things I had to do for work. Plus, it doesn't help that I've been having morning (well more of evening) sickness lately. Oh yes that's my BIG BIG News. I'm 2-months preggy!

It was quite a surprise actually. After a month of being delayed, I took a PT and tested negative. I thought that the delay was stress-induced because of the house transfer and work. When I started having a bad bout of diarrhea and stomach cramps when I was about 2-months delayed, I decided to see a gastroenterologist. When he started prescribing me medications, he asked if I was pregnant. The medicines are known to cause birth defects and he wants to make sure that I'm not. I told him that I have been two months delayed. He asked me to take another PT again before he put me on any medications. To make the long story short, I did the test the following morning and was surprised to see the PT like this:

Am I a Martyr?

After mulling with the idea for days, I finally told my boss that I'm extending til end of April instead of end of March as originally planned.

You see as it is, with four (4) Project Managers in our team, all of us are still fully-loaded. And more projects are still coming in! One of the part-time PMs will no longer work for in-house projects and will focus only on vendor-specific projects for the company. With me going, this will mean only 2 people taking all the load. I wouldn't think twice if they have a replacement for me. I wouldn't want to leave and leave my clients hanging.
