The general consensus already seems to be that we are having a boy. These predictions are of course based upon hunches, “I just think its a boy”, and other strong scientific evidence on the topic like: you have morning sickness all day so it must be a boy, and I couldn’t stand to eat sweet things either so you must be having a boy too. It seems that every pregnancy symptom or preference has some sort of meaning in the magical world of determining baby gender.
Now I’m not complaining or being skeptical about the power of hunches. And, of course, as a brand new, first time, soon-to-be parent, we relish all discussion on the topic. No opportunity to talk about this miracle that has the magical power to change every eating preference I’ve had for 34 years will be turned down. Which leads me to how Chris and I already determined that our baby, which is currently the size of a peanut, is already just like him.
Our first week in Japan is when the “this food I used to love is now disgusting” started. And right about the same time that all day I feel like throwing up feeling started. (Yes, I eat small frequent meals and have saltine crackers with me at all times so no need to e-mail that suggestion. But thanks anyway.) At one point I was remarking after chowing down on a breakfast of watermelon (I normally don’t like watermelon) and Chris responded “I LOVE watermelon.” Then I commented on how strange it is that I now must have cornflakes every morning, it used to be raisin bran. Chris said, “Cornflakes are good, raisin bran disgusting.” I think my final reflection was how my rather large sweet tooth must have finally decayed and fallen out because I’d rather have my toe nails pulled out one by one then eat candy. Chris said, “I don’t like sweets.” Chris then smiled what I think might have been one of his first proud papa smiles and said, “The baby is just like me!” I think he’s right.
