A friend of mine did this questionnaire on her blog just before her baby was due. I liked it, so here you go!
surprise or planned pregnancy?
Um, both? We tried and tried without success, then right after we got approved for adoption, we found out I was pregnant, so a surprise for the timing, but very much wanted.
boy or girl? did you have a preference?
Girl! We didn't have a preference, but I've always wanted a little girl to play dress-up and have tea parties with. Lance needs a little girl, because I see how he melts for all of our nieces.
pregnancy symptoms?
Food aversions, slight nausea in the first trimester, and fatigue were the biggest ones.
how big is baby?
At 31 weeks, she was 4 lbs, so I'm assuming now, she's 5 lbs (two weeks later). I'll find out on Thursday. If she keeps up with her weight gain, she'll be 8 1/2 lbs by her due date! (Taking after Mommy!)
your weight gain?
About 27 lbs right now?
favorite things to wear this pregnancy?
Pajamas! But in public, I like to wear my blue and white striped shirt, which oddly enough isn't maternity. It just was so loose I can still wear it now.
stretchmarks?
Not yet, but I've still got 7 weeks to go.
how are you sleeping?
It depends on the day. But lately, I just can't get comfortable.
best moment of this pregnancy?
When we found out it was a girl, any time she moves (especially when I first started feeling her), when we told people about the pregnancy (it is so fun to watch people get so excited for us!), etc. So many great moments!
worst moment of this pregnancy?
Round ligament pain. It's excruciating!
how's the baby's movement?
Very active! She's definitely my tiny dancer.
where have you carried her?
Pretty high, I guess, and in the front. From the back, you might not be able to tell I'm pregnant . . . until you watch me waddle.
your cravings?
Not too many. Lots of sweets. Pizza and spaghetti. Chinese food. Mexican food. Spicy!
your bellybutton?
Poppin' out at the top, but it still has room to grow.
any labor signs?
A few contractions, but not regular at all, and it's usually when I tighten those muscles, or when the baby moves a ton.
what do you miss most?
Being able to get things done fast. I do the smallest task, and I'm exhausted! It gets annoying waiting for everyone else to do things for me!
what are you looking forward to most?
Being a mom to this sweet little miracle, cuddling her, seeing her personality blossom, etc.
