I am DYING to find out what the gender of my baby is. Simply freaking out over it! I don't remember being this crazy-impatient over finding out what my son was before he was born. I had dreamt he was a girl several times only to be told at the ultrasound that he was a boy and very well-endowed at that....no mistaking things for a finger, toe or umbilical cord......but this time around, I haven't had any dreams (obviously they would be wrong anyways) and really no strong feelings towards which sex I am having. So I just really have to know! I feel like I can't bond yet with this baby since we are always calling it "it". It'll be nice to be abel to say "her" or "him".

I just MUST MUST MUST know! And I have two entire weeks to go before we can find out! So far, every old wives' tale method is pointing towards girl, as well as a "prediction" I got from a "psychic" that has predicted for several other women on a pregnancy chat board that I post on ocassionally.....but I cannot let myself think I am having a girl. I am actually preparing for another boy.

I think I need to mentally prepare myself for another little man, since the one I already have is completely boundless in his energy and mischief......two boys? Lord have mercy. I may have to develop a valium dependency. And although health is really the only thing that matters....I have always wanted one of each.

And I am a girl after all, I salivate when I see all the gorgeous baby girl clothes, shoes and layettes......not to mention that boys get totally gypped in the clothing & shoe department compared to girls. There is maybe one aisle of boy stuff to every six aisles of girl stuff! No fair! And all the little toddler girls that play with my son are so much more cautious, communicative, and just plain calmer. It would be nice to have some balance. Of course, another baby boy will be more than loved and welcomed in our home, that goes without ssaying, really. But, like I said, I need all the time I can get to prepare myself for double-trouble! Two weeks, is far too long to wait to find out what this baby is! Aaaaaaah!!!!! I wish there was a little window I could peek into to see for myself....right now!

Patience is a virtue that I just do not have.
