I'm so crafty, I make people!

11weeks

Omigod - you don't know how hard this was to keep to myself! I have to start telling people now because I will be needing maternity pants in very short order. I'm 11w1d today, and as Andrew puts it, due in the bleakest midwinter - 2/1/11.

This scan was taken yesterday - ignore the fact that it says 10w3d - the baby was very interested in the ultrasound scanner. It didn't matter how the midwife moved the scanner, the baby turned to face it and we couldn't get a profile pic so she could measure the top-to-tail to get the gestational age - it kept on coming up with everything from 10w to 11w. The baby was dancing around and doing somersaults - it was very amusing because I couldn't feel a thing!

Keep your fingers crossed for us - for all of Willow being a surprise and easy pregnancy - we have not had much luck with other pregnancies past Willow. Willow is over the moon - she so wants to be a big sister and keeps telling us that she wants a baby brother.

  4. I'm wishing you stay put baby vibes because the term "sticky baby" grosses me out. Trust me, you'll have a sticky baby soon enough when you're DONE being pregnant. ;-)

    Strap in girlie! Spacing them out that far isn't for the faint hearted! You get to "remember" a lot of things you forgot about when the oldest one was that little--LOL!

    Congrats!
