Boy oh Boy.

From the book, "Baby Boys: An Owner's Manual":

Top on the list of things to do will be caring for his penis.

So, basically, there's no difference in boy babies or grown up men. It's always the same thing.

Okay, so yes, the whole penis thing is part of the reason I bought this book. I know about the male anatomy, but I have a feeling there is another world of Penis Problems that I have no clue about. I've made the decision to do the whole circumcision thing, but truthfully it kind of icks me out thinking that I have to care for that "wound" until it heals.

I got tired of reading all of my pregnancy books (I've read them all about halfway through...I haven't had the guts to read about delivery. I figured I'll wait until I get a little miserable and start looking for the light at the end of the tunnel, pun intended), so as you can tell I bought a new batch today. I bought the boy book, a book about how to be a working mom, a book on baby bargains, and a book on how to get your baby to sleep.

Something I just thought about JUST now: The doc told me that he was going to be looking at my ultrasound pics over the weekend, and he would call Monday morning if he saw something he didn't like. He didn't call, so I guess everything looked okay! I should have my blood results back at the beginning of next week, and I'll be so glad when those tests come back with good results.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to reading my new books. I still haven't felt any more movement, and I'm so ready! My stomach feels really tight, though, and it feels so weird!!

I'm gonna finish up this episode of CSI, then go crawl into bed with one of my books. I didn't sleep very well last night. I had trouble falling asleep, then I tossed and turned. I'm finding it harder to breath when I lay down, so that's not making it any easier. I close tomorrow, so at least I can take my time falling asleep.
