Now that it doesn't matter so much, I've finally found something that seems to keep the pre-natal vitamin down. My diet hasn't been too healthy throughout. This girl is mainly comprised of Lindt chocolates, over-processed foods, and anything else that actually helps to put/keep the weight on. Hardly any vegetables, but plenty of fruit. Too much caffeine. By the time she arrives, I still don't think I'll have managed to have gained twenty pounds since the first documented weigh-in. Despite all this, she wont be a light-weight and I doubt she'll be premature.
I haven't had any contractions, false or real yet. That one time I thought might have been must have been her pushing on a nerve (or something) wrong. Oddly enough, I have no anxiety over this pregnancy. Seemingly everything else, but not this pregnancy. Over eight months in, and I'm not feeling heavy anticipation. No fear, little excitement. She will come in the same manner that Christmas day does to most adults (this adult); all of a sudden it will just be the day. I've been so preoccupied that this is all moving rather quickly. My expectation of her birthdate is for her to be hopefully no more than two weeks late. I wouldn't mind the 18th or the 21st of February (18th for the Chinese New Year, 21st because it's always been a significant date).
I still need to fill out hospital papers, choose a pediatrician, decorate her room, purchase and pack the hospital bag...
I've had few dreams about her, since I found out her gender. Still in dreams, she persists to be a girl. Psychotic or obese, she is always a beautiful baby and the name Autumn always suits her.
A- I finally saw Aviendha's middle name in one of the books I was reading. Where did you first see Sidhe? It's very beautiful.
