It's such a weird feeling... I know I can't really finish the registry until we know what the baby is, but I'm obsessed with adding things, tweaking things, changing things... what is wrong with me??
This week I had some bad nausea that knocked me out of commission for two days. Thankfully now I am back at work and seem to be doing ok. I'm having trouble figuring out what to eat when. I just tried eating some dry cereal (suggestion from my mommo) and I'm not sure if it will work out okay or not. Also I realized that today we have a meeting and I am dressed rather casually! Oh well.
And in other news - I found a breast pump on Craigslist for $75! I'm pretty excited as they are expensive new (well, at least the one I want is $300) and I didn't want to put more stuff on my registry than I actually need. If I can get one ahead of time then why not? Then hopefully people can get us the more expensive stuff that we need from the registry... like a crib, armoire, strollers, etc. etc. It's interesting to realize how ill-prepared the average person/couple is for adding a baby - there's so much STUFF you have to get! I don't know how people do this. I'm sure it will work out though.
We also need to prepare for the doggie who will be coming soon too, so that's even more stuff to get! Not nearly as much though. I just want to make sure that I can have a dog and still be sane enough to have a baby too. Although I am excited lately I'm having second thoughts... like will I be able to train the dog well and still be consistent once the baby comes? I don't want to get a dog just for my own benefit, I want to make sure that the dog will have a good life with us! And be a good canine citizen. No misbehaving dogs allowed in our house! And he will also need to be able to be good with little kids (which is a big thing to ask when you consider how rough our nephews tend to be with animals...). If we have a boy I don't know how that will go.
Oh and for the countdown: 12 weeks and 2 days as of today! Yay!
