OK, news: For those of you on my friends list who don't know this already (pretty much everyone whom I have not seen in awhile, i.e. most of you), I AM LIEK TOTALLY KNOCKED UP AGAIN. It's cool. It's Another Boy, due in early January. See, look, I'm doing better with keeping folks updated: this time around, you get to know about the baby before he's born!
So right now is happy times full of eating lots and lots and not being able to sleep comfortably and having ridiculous difficulty getting up and down off the floor where Jake always wants to play. But for the most part, happy times. Experienced no morning sickness whatsoever (!) and generally very few of the unpleasant side effects that can accompany this condition - so far. Ask me again in a couple of months and I'll almost surely be bitching a different tune.
I thought I wanted a girl, for this second baby factory production, and I still...kind of...do...butnotreally. Have reminded myself the world probably doesn't need a Sara 2.0, and I'm not sure I would want to try bringing up a me. While I'm told Jake looks a lot like me, I think he is a lot more pleasant than I am. He's astoundingly good-natured and sociable. WTF. Everyone everywhere seems to preach that Boys Are Easier To Deal With Than Girls, and I'm not fond of generalizations like that, but I swear that from everything I've seen and experienced, I can't argue with the theory. I keep encountering these terrible, manipulative, raging little-girl drama queens. How do they get like that? I wouldn't fucking stand for it. But I digress. I don't have to deal with any of that, for now, and I will be a Mom of Two Boys. Sweet.
