The Baby Pool is Here!

No, NOT a baby swimming pool!

It's a non-betting pool to guess the particulars of our third child. Just click on the ExpectNet banner at the top of the page to place your guess.

To help you guess, here's more info about this pregnancy compared to my pregnancies with Lukas and Natalie.

The case for a boy (or, how this is like my pregnancy with Lukas)
  • I was very hot during my pregnancy with Lukas, and I've recently become very hot
  • I thought I saw an extra appendage on the ultrasound (but other non-professionals have thought they've seen things in the ultrasound and been surprised to have a girl)

The case for a girl (or, how this is like my pregnancy with Natalie)
  • The baby is lower down, like I was with Natalie
  • I had a couple days of nausea early on in the pregnancy, more than I did with Natalie, but I had no nausea with Lukas
  • My appetite is similar to my pregnancy with Natalie: I'm not constantly starving NOW (I was with Lukas)
Regarding the statistics besides gender:
  • Lukas was born 13 days before his due date, 7 pounds, 14 ounces, 21 inches long
  • Natalie was born 19 days before her due date, 7 pounds 7 ounces, 19 inches long
  • My due date for this pregnancy is December 16

Have fun guessing!
