In two weeks I have an appointment with Dr. Match to go over my bloodwork.
In four weeks I'll have another sonogram, and if Baby is cooperative, we might be able to know the sex. Yes, I want to know; I'm not good at waiting. I realize that they can be wrong -- but still -- I want to know as much as anyone can tell me.
Two weeks after that I have another appointment with Rachel, the midwife.
Who realized that being pregnant was going to fill my social calendar this way?
We're planning to paint the nursery in muted earth-tones, with a classic Winnie-the-Pooh theme. First we have to move all of the bookshelves out of there, because when we moved in, we didn't realize that room would *become* a nursery. Before we can move the shelves, we have to move all of the boxes of books that are blocking them ... Note that while I say "we", I really mean "Geoff". I will not be moving heavy boxes or bookshelves.
We've talked a little bit about potential names, but we haven't made any decisions. We both tend to lean toward French names that "typical" Americans would mangle ... I'd rather not subject this kid to having to spell her/his first name every time s/he's on the phone -- we already get that with our *last* name.
