Questions???

When you're dating, everyone wants to know when you're getting engaged. Then, you get engaged, and everyone wants to know the details on the wedding. At your reception, everyone wants to know when you're having kids. It seems like the questions never end, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to answer some of the common ones during pregnancy, plus explain the title of our blog.

When is baby K due?
Our due date is September 13, 2010. Looking forward to a third trimester during the Indiana summer ;)

Will you find out?
Yes, we hope to find out what we're having. It's a few weeks away though at the 21 week doctor's appointment. Matt is hoping for a boy so he influences me in that direction, but really we both just want a healthy baby (It's the peds nurse in me.)

This question brings us to the blog title. Ever since Matt and I have been together, Matt has been referring to our future son as "Cadillac", followed closely by Troxler & McGillicuddy. So when I asked Matt what our title should be it seemed fitting to choose "Cadillac Chronicles". Don't worry, Cadillac is not in the running for the baby's legal name.

Have you thought about the nursery?
Not really. Since we're finding out, we'll wait until after to really start looking. Also, the baby will more than likely share our room for awhile as the two other bedrooms are upstairs.

How has Gigi been feeling?
I can't complain really. I was pretty nauseous from 7 weeks until about 12 1/2 weeks. I never got sick just didn't feel great. I could keep it mostly under control by eating small portions several times a day. Now at almost 14 weeks, I'm feeling a lot better, but if I over eat (which I have a hard time not doing) I feel pretty lousy afterwards. I'm pretty sure the heartburn is on its way as well.

I had another OB appointment this past week. My uterus is growing, and you can now hear the heartbeat with a doppler on my stomach. Everything looks good, last heartbeat 162 bpm.

I'll try to keep this blog updated for all of you who would like to follow. It will probably be a little boring for a couple more months as not much is happening, and I only see the doctor once a month. Enjoy!
