Just a little thread to keep the people interested informed about the SON baby. :-) I'm 13 weeks along and due on April 8th. I had the new genetic testing (MaterniT21) done because I'm over 35. It's just a simple blood draw, that's less invasive than an amnio. Luckily, is well on that front.

You can also find out the gender of the baby with this new test. I'm having a boy. I'm a little nervous about that, since I guess being a woman I just feel like I have more of a sense of how to parent a girl, but I guess I'll figure it out.

Thanks to the people who've asked about how I'm feeling and who have wished us well. I really appreciate it. I'm feeling pretty good now that I'm out of the first trimester. Still a little tired, but I was lucky and didn't have terrible morning sickness. Mostly what I'm hoping for is things to stay uneventful for the next six months.

If anyone has name ideas, I'm open to suggestions. Right now, Elijah is in the running.

Pop it out in April 4th!

Julia wishing you the best of luck before you're too busy to enjoy it!

Best wishes to you, with warmest regards, Slick (Eric)

Sounds great! So happy for you

Thanks Chit!

QFan:

we need a cyber waiting room where we all can pace anxiously and ready to pass out the cigars.

LOL!

Marceline:

Julia, you need to arrange for someone to PM Toups or Errol when you go into labor so they can make a board announcement!

I will try to post before I go to the hospital, particularly if I'm induced.

I just love it! Wonderful! I'm so sorry your regular doctor won't be there for the delivery.

*praying for an April fools day/GH anniversary delivery just because*

Thanks you. I would be happy if the baby just decides to come on his own, even if he is an April Fool's baby!
