Maternity pantyhose FAIL

I should have known.

I was skeptical as I fingered the sleek white box that fit easily in one hand. "Maternity pantyhose" it said. "One size fits all". Which somehow never, ever includes me. When I asked the sales gal to open the teeny tiny box of black tights and she pulled out a thin, wrinkly ribbon of black.. I should have walked away.

"These are maternity tights? They look like regular ones."

"Well, they have l...



What the heck is that all about?

Okay, I'll be at home, minding my own business, and WHAM-OH; a weird back spasm. Like a mini-muscle cramp. Mild, not sharp. And then as fast as it comes.. it's gone.

Yes, yes, yes.. I've looked it all up on-line and will talk to my doctor about it at my appointment Monday. The good news is, I've only had it happen a few times, and only when I'm lying on my side reading. And it's mild. I would describe it as strong enough to feel,...

Well, that went well.

I was totally jazzed to see Krist Novoselic (after 20 years had passed since I first remembered meeting him pre-Nirvava's explosion onto the music scene).

The station found out that he now lives in rural Southwest Washington and that he was headed to the inauguration which gave us a great opportunity to ask him t...

The doc confirms: my baby is a...

GIRL.

We are definitely having a girl. One of my two baby doctors guessed as much weeks ago, and I mentioned that here. But there was always room for that to change. As he said at the time.. don't buy anything pink or paint the room until we confirm that, or else you'll kill me when I tell you you're having a boy.

I found out Friday that she is, indeed, a she.

And she's healthy. Double bonus. She was yawning in the...
