I guess I’m just teasing with the subject, because I really don’t know the sex of the baby yet. But lots of people have given me some input on whether it’s a boy or girl. Maybe it’s all just superstition. So if you’ve had a kid before, let me know your views or experiences.
Someone told me yesterday that if I haven’t thrown up with morning sickness, then it’s a boy. Is that true for any of you? (I also suspect that the “not-throwing-up” may be coincidental with your first child as well.) My sister told me that she craved french fries during the beginning of her pregnancy (she’s having a boy) and since I have been also, she thinks it’s a boy too. Despite all these tendencies, I’ve been thinking that it’s a boy all along. I don’t know why. But I could be wrong. I guess we’ll all find out for sure next month. I would like to do a baby pool sometime. Maybe after Ether posts up pictures from our trip.
And boy have people been telling me what to eat and what not to eat. I think I got bombarded at church by like 5 people yesterday. So far I’ve heard: No milk, eat yogurt, less carbs, less sugar, no cold drinks, drink more soup, and more fruit. (most have said no watermelon and one person said to eat more of it. I don’t like watermelon though.) My jeans are starting to get a little snug now.
I have no time to shop for new stuff. I did buy a few things in Cali though. But it’s not going to fit me just yet.
