Frequently Asked Questions:
1) How are you feeling? Queasy and tired, thanks. And you?
2) How far along are you? 18 weeks. And, yes, still regularly visited by the quease. The second trimester is a myth. So is the “morning” in morning sickness. Just so you know. Oh, and I have to pee. Again.
3) When are you due? February 11 – give or take a few days. Yes, a Valentine’s baby. No, Cupid and Valentine are not naming options.
4) Okay, so are there any names that you do want to use? Yes.
5) Well, what are they? A surprise. They are a surprise. They are also subject to change. We’ll announce in February.
6) Girl or boy? Yes, we hope so. Oh, you mean, which one? We’ll know in a few weeks, but we have some preliminary results. We’re just waiting for backup to know for certain. Don’t want to announce one and have it turn out to be the other after all.
7) So you’re going to find out? Yup. That’s the plan. I never was big on surprises.
8) Will you tell us? If you ask nicely. I’ll probably announce it on Twitter and Facebook first.
9) Is this your first? Yes. Otherwise you’d probably have seen me mention other children a time or two.
10) So is this why you haven’t written in a while? Or, visited my blog? (Not to sound pouty, but…) Yeah, among other things. Like the flu (which is no fun without Dayquil, let me tell you). And multiple internet outages (still). And a very busy time at work.
Many congratulations to you and the rest of the clan (including the kitties!) Can’t wait to hear about the Book Lady’s Book Baby!!! 🙂
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Congratulations! 🙂 What wonderful news!
Humph. The Katie who posted first took away exactly what I was going to say (re: Surprise being a great name for a baby of either sex). 🙁
In any case, congrats, and please let me know if there is anything I can do, since I live close, and can actually do more than send good wishes…please don’t ask for breakfast in bed, though. I won’t even do that for my own husband (crumbs, you know). But WAIT! You don’t share my bed! Maybe I would do it for you! Heh heh heh.
Wooohoo! I didn’t know you were pregnant! HUGE congrats. 🙂 I know so many pregnant people right now, there must be something going around. LOL
Super news, Caryn! Heaps of congratulations! Do enjoy the ‘putting your feet up’ moments in the middle of all the queasiness and tiredness. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes as smoothly as possible! Stay well…
Congratulations! Best wishes to you and the hubby during this very special time! I’m so thrilled for you and look forward to updates! Thanks for sharing the little one’s first picture. 🙂
WOW– Huge Congrats to you!!!
Wowie zowie! What delicious news!! And just when I’d feared you would never write in your blog again…now comes the reason why, and it’s a good one! The picture is adorable. Do keep us posted…we’re hanging out here in cyberspace dying to know everything.
I’m so pleased that everything has been going well for you! You’ve been in my thoughts for quite some time. Congratulations to you and yours. =)
