What's your prediction?

16 weeks


Here's what I can tell you...

-- I had mild morning sickness for a few weeks, but it was mainly just a faint nauseous feeling after I ate.
-- I've had no specific food aversions, other than just being extra picky about what I want to eat.
-- I actually craved vegetables in the first trimester, and still love anything tomatoee (V8, salsa, tomato soup, ketchup, bloody mary mix).
-- I am back in love with Thomas Cinnamon & Raisin bagels with cream cheese - my daily breakfast (I remember thinking after Raya was born that I could not understand why these items were so wonderful to me. Now I can't understand how they weren't!)
-- I want nothing to do with the brownies at the cafe down the street (which I was addicted to last time).
-- I eat Tim's Cascade Jalapeno potato chips every chance I get.
-- Too much pizza is so NOT a good thing this time around.
-- I don't miss drinking alcohol, but I do crave red wine (if only the non-alcoholic versions weren't so nasty!)
-- I do crave sweets periodically throughout the day, but in the form of candy, ice cream or cookies. NOT in the form of cake, pie or brownies.
-- I'm gaining weight slower, even though my belly is pretending to be 6 months pregnant already (I'm only in my 4th month).
-- I just finished my headache phase (fingers crossed) that I also experienced the first time around.
-- So far my complexion has remained unchanged. No dry, flaky skin like last time.
-- At my last check-up (yesterday), T2's heart was beating 150 beats per minute.
-- I feel healthy and upbeat and absolutely fabulous.

Now you tell me... Boy or Girl?

There's no wrong answer here. Part of me wishes I had one of each in there (a very small part of me who is crazy). Still, I'd like to know what you all think for fun's sake. We'll know the answer on February 28th!!
