I have completed my first trimester! I am grateful that my clothes are normally so loose, but now i fear even they are not going to last for very much longer. I will have to let out the seams soon, I think.

I would certainly have to set some stipulations. I think sometimes these gods see us as baby machines and forget that people have feelings that have to be taken into account.

I'm surprised to hear that you have not chosen to keep your child. It seems like you're so excited.. I would have thought that you would keep the baby. I certainly don't disparage you for the choice, I am just surprised, that's all.

But surely Lady Arva spoke to you about what this island was all about? I know it is not necessary to have a child immediately, or nearly as soon as I have, but that is the goal of this place. Having a child is a wonderful experience thus far, and others seem to be quite pleased with their own experiences of being pregnant.

While I'm quite certain Isaac and I could raise our child together here, Lady Arva is more than capable. I want my child to know the gods and love them, as I do. I would not wish to deny my child such an opportunity.

I don't find myself to be as much of a devotee as you are, but I suppose that is not new. I wasn't particularly fervent in religion back home and I am not here either. I'm very glad for you that you are though, dear.

You're lucky that you've found a man who is open and ready to take on the challenges of pregnancy with you.

As for me, I believe you're right. I need to speak with the two men I have listed as potentials.

	I am simply grateful for the opportunity to live here, and to be so happy. Isaac is truly wonderful, and we have been very lucky to have not had any challenges with my pregnancy thus far. I'm quite happy. I wish you the very best of luck, Lady Mary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
