new camper

[brainpause]

Enjoying reading everyone's carry-on of my theme.

Regarding 07-07-07, it would be fitting. In high school, I was known to be a very superstitious baseball player. Had the lucky shirt (and the unlucky ones), wore the number 7 (or a multiple of 7, except for the time I wore 13 and went 1 for 13 in the tournament), and finally, everyone predicted I would graduate #7 in ranking. You guessed it. #7.

That date would be 3 weeks early, and I am praying daily for a healthy baby. If it was earlier this year, it wouldn't have bothered me to be 06-06-06, as long as I had a healthy child.

First, Congratulations!  I don't know how this slipped by me the first time.

The question was How is Holly, and you said:

Not too hot some days. She does get pretty nauseated in the morning, but she is figuring out a routine of saltines, Propel in the AM, and a nice big slice of cheddar cheese in the middle of the night, kept on the nightstand. Seems salty taste of hash browns at hospital cafeteria helps her too. She has a hard time with sweet smells and flavors, although she did down some orange cinnamon rolls this AM.

It may be small comfort to Holly, but a morningsick mom is a sign of a healthy pregnancy.  Miscarriages are more common among women who do not get morning sick (but this is by no means a rule).

I remember pressuring PJay to eat with DD#1.  That was stupid.  As long as she is not dehydrating, neither Holly nor the baby will starve.  Women been having babies from the very beginning.
