Um, I wanted to read all the comments, because I’m so excited for you and it’s so interesting to me to see what other people say, but all I keep thinking is “NOOOOOO!!!” Because I already have D/DD boobs. And if they are going to get even bigger when/if I get pregnant I don’t know what I’ll do. Gah.

I’m clearly a little late to the party but I had to add this:

About the B to D situation… I’m sure someone has mentioned this to you already because I heard I every time the subject came up– “Just wait until your milk comes in…” usually around the 3rd day after giving birth. I was all Yeah, yeah… But holy CRAP! Looking back, I can honestly say I wish I had taken a picture of those things cause keeyrist they were not of this planet.

I just went to the Dark Side (aka Twitter) to see if you’d posted the news yet. I can’t wait!!!!

Oh the memories! I would sit behind my desk at work and think “I am making human bones inside me RIGHT NOW…And they are NOT MINE.” And I would freak out. Then I would think of things that were on my online calendar that were being grown day by day, like eyelashes or lips and I would will myself to think “Ok..make loooong gorgeous eyelashes today. Oh? You need Ben and Jerrys to do this? Not a problem!” “Angelina Jolie lips today, folks! Time for pumpkin pie!”

Ps..I have one of each….But there is something about buying little dresses and tights with little uggs!!!

Very exciting. I threw up at my 20 week US, good times. Hope the little peanut is healthy and shows her/his stuff for the world to see!

We had fake names picked out for our now three year old. We expected an easter baby so we had “Pascal” and “Eglantyne.” Also “Victoriana Regina.” And “Torquil Gustav.” You are a literary person, so I’m guessing you can think of some lovely fake names. We didn’t share any of the real name ideas so nobody could say anything like, “Oh, I knew a boy with that name. He was a jerk.” Why do people say things like that?
I vote girl because of the nausea, but I hope you get whatever you’re hoping for. How’s that for covering my bases?

Okay, so I’m SO CURIOUS to know what you’re having! Although now that I’ve said that, it sounds a littie kooky of me, not knowing you personally and all. So now I sound like a stalker. Awesome.

Oh, and I too think it is weird that we grow babies inside our bodies. Or gestate them. Whatevs. When I think too much about it, I also think sex is weird.

Just yesterday I was commnting on how fucked up it is that we gestate our young inside our bodies. Why not an egg?! An egg makes so much more sense!

I think it’s a boy – based on nothing but women’s intuition!

Okay, I haven’t commented an awful lot(once) but I swear I’ve been reading along forever and I’m SO excited for you! I’m guessing boy. Even with 50-50 odds I’m usually wrong.
The whole alien thing gets even weirder as they get older. I mean how could someone who is taller than me have ever fit in there? How can I have a kid who looks nothing like me? And… And…
Oh, yeah. Also blocked from lawyerish.
Can’t wait until tomorrow!
