Baby Fever

I'm on this website called BabyCenter.com and it has a forum for the month that your baby's due so there's all these ladies on there who post different stuff and different questions. Anyway this one lady posted this link which had a quiz on how your labor and delivery would go. And the italicized is what it predicted.

The day you deliver, outside will be warm. Your baby will arive in the early morning. After a labor lasting approximately 4 hours, your child, a girl, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 4lbs, 14oz, and will be 17 1/2 inches long. This child will have medium amber eyes and a little patch of auburn hair.

That sounds dreamy! Guess we'll see if it's a boy or a girl in a little over a week, but everything else seems possible! Except 4lbs seems awfully small.

I did have a dream last night I had the baby early but everything was ok. And in my dream I was trying to keep it warm because I know that babies need to be kept warm for the first little while outside of the womb. I kept trying to keep it's head covered with one of those light-weight foil type blankets. It looked just like a newborn! All my baby dreams I've had the baby is always older. Then I realized that I didn't know if it was a boy or a girl so I laid it in its crib and peeked at it and it was a boy! He was totally cute! And he had long toes sort of and I remember thinking they were just like Zack's. That particular dream for some reason was so real and it made me so excited! I can't wait to meet our baby. As far as my dream predicting the sex goes though, who knows. I've had a ton of dreams where I have a boy, but yet a ton of dreams that I have a girl. At this point it's a complete mystery to me.

But the baby is moving all the time now! I was scared last Tuesday because I slipped and fell on the ice but really I only hit my tail bone (which is still sore). I was scared I hurt the baby. I called the doctor and they told me what to look for, and everything ended up fine. But ever since that day the baby has really been squirmy. I love it. I hope that Zack's able to feel it soon. I'm not really sure when that is supposed to happen. I think my belly needs to get bigger though before that can happen. But my last post was me complaining about not having a belly and then fate caught up to me about 3 days later and gave me one! I finally have a belly to hang on to. I'll post a picture in a week or two and give it time to get a little bigger.

I've also been getting a small case of shopping fever where I really want to go buy a bunch of baby stuff. I did buy a couple of tops from Target.com and a diaper bag from Overstock.com and a new B-Buckle. But I stopped myself after that. So I started a registry as a type of personal wish list. It has boy stuff and girl stuff and after we know I'll go through and weed out the opposing sex. But making a registry is a great way to satisfy your shopping urge; you're still shopping, just not spending.

Oh and I found something for Zack that maybe I'll try to get him next month. It's a cargo jacket made my dadgear.com and it has secret pockets inside to hide diapers and wipes and even a pocket for a changing pad!


And it looks like a normal jacket! He already has like 2 jackets that look like this, so I hope it'd be something he'd use. I hope.
