1. Words cannot express how sleepy I've been in the last few days. Thursday, I fell asleep three times in my office. Quiet room, closed door, *bam!* Asleep. Today I took a nap shortly after breakfast, even though my in-laws are visiting. It was slightly embarrassing.

2. There will not be an exciting moment when my previously-flat stomach suddenly develops a pregnancy bump, because I've had a belly for years. But I noticed today that my belly feels much firmer, especially right in the center. curiousangel says he can feel it too.

"This sounds so weird, but I think I can feel my uterus," I told my mother on the phone. She was unshocked. "You probably can."

Holy cow.

3. I really, really, really need to stop reading stories that mention fetal death. I blogged about the outraged part of my reaction, but not the part where I sat at my computer and cried.

4. I saw misia and perigee when we went out to breakfast with my in-laws. misia immediately commented on my enormous rack, thus demonstrating that I am not exaggerating the whole zeppelin-tits phenomenon. She also told me she's going to make an afghan for the Li'l Critter and showed me the pattern, yay!

5. We spent quite a bit of time discussing possible baby names with my in-laws today (Rachel/Emily/Genevieve/Alexandra, Alexander/Ryan) without, somehow, either of us happening to mention that we intend to give the Li'l Critter my last name. Maybe it will never, ever come up in conversation, and we won't have to tell them. Do you think?
