IF (12w1d)

If things look good today, I will meet Best Professor Friend for lunch and possibly go to the Whole Foods, just because I haven't been there in forever, and the closest one happens to be in the same city as the hospital.  (When I was pregnant with LG and seeing an OB 50 minutes from home, I had the same routine.  I remember being newly pregnant with her as the summer of fruit tarts at WF.)

If things look good today, I will do open enrollment for insurance and go to the cheaper (by a fucking lot) option, after making sure ultrasound coverage is the same.

If things look good today, I might actually relax a bit.

If things look good today, I will definitely buy clothes that fit.  (My body is nothing if not predictable when it comes to weight gain in pregnancy; 8 lbs in 8 weeks, which basically puts me at the 106 lbs I should be, after gaining the 3-5 lbs Dr. Gorgeous told me to gain + 3-5 lbs of normal first trimester weight.  Not that I'm obsessing or anything.)

If things look good today, I might actually tell LG this week, since people are starting to slip up and make comments in her presence.  Oh, my neighbor the herbalist said, look at you, you're showing a little bump.

I'm really having trouble believing I could lose this baby this late in the game.  I'm also having a lot of trouble believing I might actually have a baby in November. 

Okay...time to go.
