read it ... now.
I am a 24 year old elementary school teacher from New York City. My husband and I have been together for 7.7 years, married for 3.2 years, and are expecting our first child on August 18, 2008 after over a year of trying!
It has already been a roller coaster ride for us. I spotted twice in my first trimester, and found out I have an increased risk (1 in 85 or 1%) of having a child with Trisomy 18. Normally, the odds are about 0.02%. We are counting on detailed ultrasounds, not amnio, to help us see that our child is just fine. We are going with the our-child-is-99%-healthy attitude first!
Check out my journal below (far below) for updates and to read about our journey with our first pregnancy!
Labor Prediction Quiz
Just about the time you think you can't handle hearing one more "when is that baby going to pop?", your baby will decide to make it's appearance. We predict your baby will be born 3-7 days before its due date. Your baby will most likely be born in the morning. Justmommies predicts that your baby will weigh approximately 8.0 pounds and that your labor will be about 15 hours long.

Who was the first person you told?: My husband!
How did your parents react?: Super excited! His mom cried!

Will you cry when you hold the baby for the first time?: I think so!
What's the first thing you might say to him/her?: My sweetie!
Would you let someone videotape the birth?: I'd love that, but my husband may be weirded out by it. Haha.
Are you excited about the birth, or scared?: I feel calm and excited and happy; I trust my body and am looking forward to experiencing childbirth. But I must admit that I'm anxious about it all, too!
JOURNAL
just for fun: gender prediction!
babzone quiz: it could be a BOY!
my birthdate + baby's conception month: it could be a GIRL!
chinese calendar (my age at conception + month of conception): it could be a BOY!
old wives tale: it could be a GIRL!
so, it's a tie so far ... one more predictor to break the tie ....
heartbeat = above 140 bpm: it could be a GIRL!
THE VERDICT? IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!
