Another tacky announcement! My blog wants to tell you I’m pregnant.
Following in the tradition of marriage and moving, there’s no better way to tell a group of people you’re (insert pregnancy euphemism here).
I figure you’re all as excited as we are, so I’ll skip the blathering and just give you the goods:
- We’re expecting a human baby around May 20th, 2010.
- That makes me almost 14 weeks pregnant.
- Yes, I had first-trimester nausea.
- No, I didn’t ever actually puke.
- Yes, I plan on blogging all about it.
- That makes this a mostly knitting and pregnancy blog at this point.
- As I am an open person, you are going to hear about controversial, weird and potentially gross stuff. Consider yourself warned.
(That’s 7 weeks and 14 weeks.)
Next to come: sonogram headshot of what we’re referring to as The Soybean, results of genetic testing, ruminations on the first three months, and more.
Congratulations to you both!
Bring on the controversial, weird, gross stuff!
There’s no such thing as TMI in a Sonya pregnancy blog. I will read it all!
Which brings me to my first question … genetic testing? Anything fancy-like, or just the standard quad-screen (Down Syndrome, etc.)? Ooo, or are you testing to ensure that you’ve created a member of a super-race, a la Khan Noonien Singh?
Hmm, I’m loving me the names Soybean and Hawkeye, but Auntie Stephanie just might have to call this baby Khan.
“KHAN!!!!”
Congrats! Looking forward to the controversial. gross stuff. That’s the best part of life!
Congrats, Sonya! I love that you are calling it the soybean, that is adorable. Although, be forewarned… a friend of mine called her baby tater the whole time she was pregnant, and I still think of her as “tater” even though she is a toddler now. 🙂
Khan would be a great ‘yelling out the front door at your kid’ name. I’d have to shake my fist every time.
Also, Soybean is a great nickname for a farmer’s granddaughter. I wholly support it. Better than Whosit, which is what my parents referred to me as.
i will eat whatever soybean you put in front of me, fair warning. but its like love-noms, right?
congrats! what wonderful news!!
and i consider myself warned 😉
Soybean is adorable. We called Kirsten “the parasite” and I have to stop myself from calling her by her somewhat derogatory in utero nickname sometimes;)
That’s great news! I love pregnancy and especially delivery stories, so please, keep ’em coming!
Hey, we’ve been promised ruminations and the like — where’s the updates? Baby talk, I want baby talk!
