We I did it. I finished my master's degree program (sigh of relief). Now that that is out of the way, I have to say I a bored to death, and all a girl can do is think about baby stuff. Luckily, my job is a work from home position, so I decided to do all these wives tales throughout the day. The first test was the urine and baking powder test. If the combination fizzes like beer, its a boy; if there is no fizz its a girl. I also did the pencil test. You thread a needle with string and stick the needle inside the eraser of the pencil. You then hang the pencil over your wrist. If it moves back and fourth, its a boy; if it moves in circles, its a girl. I also did the Chinese gender test. They ask you the month on conception and your age, then tell you whether you are having a girl or boy.
From my previous post, I did a questionnaire online, and the chain test. With a total of 5 different test, they have all given the same result..... IT'S A GIRL!! Now the true test will be whether or not they are correct, or the complete opposite. Everyone in my family wants a girl. Growing up with 2 sisters, and a crazy obsessed girlly mother (its funny if you know my mom), having a girl would be AHH-MA-SING (in my Penny voice from Happy Endings)!! But, everyone at my job, my fiance, my sister in-law want and say its a boy!! Which would be AHH-MA-SING as well. My next appoint is on Tuesday, and technically I can find out the sex of the baby, but I haven't really decided yet. Here are some of my thoughts:
1. Ask tech to write the gender down, and put it in an envelope. Then video chat with my fiance so we find out at the same time.
2. Don't find out at all, and wait till the birth.
3. Mail the results to my fiance, but tell him not to tell me or anyone else.
Decisions, decisions! I did manage to do some Baby Buys. Nothing crazy, there was a storage dresser I wanted and all the websites said sold out except Overstock, so I took that as a sign to buy the thing already lol. It looks a little like this :
Then I also bought a blanket, so I could get free shipping lol. The blanket has frogs and bees on it. It is really cute. But that was it. I will let my mother-in- law go all crazy on the baby stuff, she seems to enjoy it lol. I have bought myself a couple of new items. I went to Old Navy to pick up some solid tee shirts, that are easy to wear and comfortable (since nothing fits), and I bought a new shirt from Lerners New York. They had a huge sale; so since I will see my baby on Tuesday I wanted to look my best. It might sound crazy because i know the baby can't actually see me, but I want to look and feel good that day. Good vibes, good results, great appointment!! So I got a cute lavender shirt that has buttons going down the back with a new necklace. I only spent like $16 at New York co. so that is amazing to me :-) I am on my last pair of jeans that fits me (American Eagle Boyfriend cut). I know I should probably get maternity pants, but i haven't found some that aren't hideous lol. We will search next week promise promise!Well that is all for today. I will update everyone on my appointment, symptoms, doctor questions, and yes a new photo! 20 weeks never looked so good!
See you soon :-)
