Re: To liven things up- Poll!
1. married for 3, together for 8
2. 0
3. 2-3
4. At least part-time until they reach school age
5. Still deciding- We've decided not to share bc I really can't stand when someone has a negative opinion about a name I love
6. I'm so looking forward to feeling him/her kick! MS and food aversions (add dryheaving to that too!)
1. DH have been married for 1 year 3 months. We've been together for 5 years.
2. We don't have any children yet.
3. We want 2 (or 3, but DH says 2).
4. I will stay home for a year and probably go back to work. We shall see though.
5. We have a few contenders: Ava, Emma, Monika, Martin...boys are hard.
6. Best part? Imagining a little life inside of me. Worst part? Feeling like crap. Hoping that goes away soon.

3. How many do you want? ideally 2, but we will take whatever we get!
4. Are you planning on staying home from work after the birth? yes, I will take the full year of mat leave, and would like to stay home after until the kids are in school full days.
5. Do you have your names picked out yet? Please share if you'd like! Yup! Lilly for a girl, and Lukas for a boy. Those are the front runners right now.
6. Best part about being pregnant? Worst part? Best part - seeing the baby on the ultrasound and seeing them squirming around. Worst part - the m/s that has kicked my booty!

4. Are you planning on staying home from work after the birth? I stay home now with DD. I will take about a year after this pregnancy to be home but that plan is flexible. It might not make sense financially to have possibly 3 kids in daycare or pay for a live in nanny. Time will only tell.
5. Do you have your names picked out yet? Please share if you'd like! We barely agreed on our DDs name so we are in some deep doodoo when it comes to naming this child/ren.
6. Best part about being pregnant? I remember fondly how I looked pregnant and look forward to that again. It was to the only time in my life I haven't suffered from body image issues. Worst part?

I am absolute enjoying every minute of it (back pain, bloating and nausea).
