Re: Fun Pregnancy Poll
1. What are you looking to most about being pregnant? Getting lots of back, feet and shoulder massages from DH!
2. What are you most worried about? labor being painful. I had an epidural and did not feel anything with DD, so I'm scared that this time LO won't be quite as nice to me!
3. How did/are you going to tell your close friends and family? I'll take a picture of DD wearing a big sister shirt holding the ultrasound pic and make it into a card.
4. What are you excited for DH to get excited about? I'm just excited that he is way more into my pregnancy already this time. I think guys don't totally get into it (at least he didn't) the first time because they don't know what to expect. This time, he's super excited and is already talking about how we need to switch DD's room to make room for the baby in the nursery.
5. What are you craving? If you're not craving anything, what are you blaming the pregnancy for making you eat?
No cravings yet... didn't even have any the first time around. Although I will totally be buying chocolate chip mint ice cream tomorrow and it will be gone within 2-3 days. 
6. What are you looking forward to buying for LO? A cute handmade hat!
1. What are you looking to most about being pregnant? Feeling the baby kick in the future.
2. What are you most worried about? Keeping the baby safe and healthy.[/b[
3. How did/are you going to tell your close friends and family?
My mom I showed her the digital result (if your mom wears glasses...don't do what I did and make sure she has them ON). Mom told Daddy when I said not to...then I just texted and called who I could. I told my grandma in person because her hearing isn't awesome. And work I told getting out of taking care of someone with active flu...so not the most exciting.
4. What are you excited for DH to get excited about? He's already so excited that I'm giddy about it!
5. What are you craving? If you're not craving anything, what are you blaming the pregnancy for making you eat?
So far, no cravings...just hungry all the time. And right now I can eat anything...except any sort of nuts, but they weren't my best friends to start with, anyways.
6. What are you looking forward to buying for LO? CLOTHES! And of course the crib and nursery decorations.
Furbabies Ribby, JJ, Bella, Hunter
My little Minion!

2. What are you most worried about? The baby staying safe.
3. How did/are you going to tell your close friends and family? My parents are flying in for ds's birthday when I will be 8 weeks. I am going to put ds in a "future big brother" shirt and video tape their reactions. My dh's family is all getting together for his grandmother's 90th birthday. I love telling people in person so we would love to tell them then but don't want to steal her thunder. (I should mention we don't live near them and are just going to visit 1 day for the birthday.)
4. What are you excited for DH to get excited about? He already is!
5. What are you craving? If you're not craving anything, what are you blaming the pregnancy for making you eat?
I am craving avocados in salads and buffalo chicken.
6. What are you looking forward to buying for LO? We already have mostly everything we need...if it's a boy. Only difference is this baby will be born in a completely different time of year so we will need winter stuff.
1. What are you looking to most about being pregnant? Feeling the first flutters. I also can't wait to be called Mommy.
2. What are you most worried about? The baby's health and safety.
3. How did/are you going to tell your close friends and family? I plan on giving my parents a framed Grandparents cross stitched picture. I ordered a "Mommy in training" shirt off cafepress.com. I'm going to wear that and see how long it takes people to notice it.

6. What are you looking forward to buying for LO?
2. What are you most worried about? Since my pre-BFP 'symptoms' have completely disappeared, right now I am super-paranoid this means I don't have a viable pregnancy. But I guess apart from that, that our sex life will go downhill.
3. How did/are you going to tell your close friends and family? We didn't yet, I'm waiting to have a picture to show people
