We have decided not to go with a planned home birth this time around, mostly for financial reasons. We have selected the OB that helped to deliver Raegan, and after a very long discussion with my midwife, we both feel this is a choice we are comfortable with. The first trimester of this pregnancy was almost exactly the same as with R, but the second trimester has been totally different. I am showing a lot more, for one thing, but also I am not nearly as hungry. When I wake up in the morning, it can be a few hours before I even want to eat anything. Although I have eaten some sweets since second trimester, I can usually take it or leave it, and for the sake of health, I tend to leave it. We aren't going to find out the gender of the baby before the delivery, but my inclination is that it is a boy. Raegan also thinks it is a boy, and she thinks we should name him Matt. :) We have a (secret) boy name already picked out, too! We can not quite agree on a girl name. We also can't agree on where we will put this baby, since all of the bedrooms are currently taken. In the beginning the baby will sleep in our room anyway, but we need to set up an area with a dresser/changing table and rocking chair. This will be my project after the holidays!
