Hello? HELLO????

Hello? HELLO????

What phone call do you really NOT want to miss?

The one where you're gonna find out 1) your CVS test results; and 2) the sex of your baby.

REALLY don't want to miss that call, do you?

No.

Well, I did.

And although I called back fairly quickly, apparently I'm not going to hear from them again until tomorrow.

TOMORROW.

C'mon.

The good news (quite literally) is that the message said: "I have good news about your preliminary test results."

So at least I don't have to spend this time waiting in a complete state of panic. I can be happy, and relieved, and take a huge deep breath.

All while silently screaming: "BUT AM I HAVING A GIRL OR A BOY??????"

Based on my scientific experience with gender, I'm going with Team Pink... Extra kudos to the doc's office for keeping your anxiety level to a minimum until tomorrow!

Doctor's offices like to call after the switchboard is closed so if you miss it, you can't call them back. So frustrating!

Congrats on getting good news (kind of)!

No need to hear, it's a boy. All signs point blue!

All kidding aside, seriously can't wait. You'd think you were my sister or something.

That was SO nice of the doctor's office to leave a message that gave a little info.

Just a little reminder. No matter the sex, these baby names are probably really bad ideas.

Katniss
Peeta
Gale
Haymitch (I know, it's nice...but NO!)
Octavia
Caesar
Rue
Effie
Glimmer
etc.

I'll be checking in regularly today to hear your good news!!

Whatever it is it's going to be the biggest blessing ever!!!

I'm going on the record: Girl. (And no, I don't have any inside info.)

Coming out of hiding to say it's my first time commenting but have been enjoying your blog for a few months - since finding it through the Happiness Project. I am on the edge of my seat today and can't wait to hear the news. :)

My Books (with Elizabeth Craft)

'Bass Ackwards and Belly Up' and 'Footfree and Fancyloose' tell the story of four best friends who commit the ultimate suburban sin: putting off college to pursue their dreams.
Publisher's Weekly said: "Full of romance and adventure, laughter and tears, the story is a reminder that veering from the straight and narrow road doesn't always lead to a dead end."

What is Starfish Envy??

L.A. 2009. I’m stuck in traffic on the 101 freeway, listening to Isabella Rosselini on NPR. Isabella, for some reason, mentions that starfish are one of those rare species that can reproduce asexually, and I realize that if I could do that, I wouldn't have to worry about finding a boyfriend/husband. I wouldn’t have to internet date! I wouldn't have to figure out if I want to/can/should have a baby/adopt a baby/child on my own. I wouldn't have to stress about things like FSH levels, or weigh my feelings on in vitro versus adoption. I would just have a baby. Thus began my starfish envy.
