Told my boss I'm pregnant

I told my boss I'm pregnant this morning. I'm glad to get that off my chest! I had thought about waiting another week or so, but I thought he might be catching on and we have our holiday party on Thursday night and he was already talking about the shots we were going to take, etc., so I figured it was going to become increasingly obvious! He wasn't actually all that surprised. I closed his door and said "I have some official news to give you." He looked worried so I said "the good news is that I'm not quitting... If that's what you're worried about" and then he said "but you are going to be taking some time off, right?" I said "Well, you just ruined it!" I was actually glad he had already figured it out, though. He said he had been hinting around a little and also mentioned that the doctor's appointments gave it away. Anyway, I guess I have to talk to HR now, but I'm just glad he knows. He asked how long I was planning to take off and I said I wasn't sure, but probably 12 weeks. That's some of what I need to figure out with HR, I guess.

Oh, I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow! Baby will be the size of a lime!

That's all the update I have for now.
