22 Weeks

No ultrasound this month, the Dr. is waiting until week 28 to see the position of the placenta. This is causing quite a lot of angst amongst anyone who knows me, as it is very important to know the sex of the baby by now. The majority of the people say Varon, because my stomach is pointy (but I thought my butt gave it away?). I don't argue, even though my stomach was pointy the last two times. What do I know? I had dreams about Joel being a girl, was utterly convinced that Kezia was a boy and that Asha, even though I was wrong the last two times, was for sure going to be a boy. This time? I have dreams of a little girl and then cry when I think about my newborn son. Must be the nachos.....

This month, Carl felt the baby move and we discussed baby names. Doesn't seem to be any that feel right, maybe we'll just have to wait until little one shows up; we'll look them in the face and they will be a __________ forevermore. But feel free to forward your name suggestions. Joel said he thought HeyListen! or Oye! if we wanted Spanish, could be unique and very useful, so we're looking to broaden our pool of resources.

I've always loved Rehema (e is pronounced as a long A. Rae for short). It's Swahili for mercy, and we can't use it, since our baby will likely keep their given name. Enjoy the fun of looking!
