Week 14

Alright a little more time to update.

So to give you some further information. I am currently in my 14th week of pregnancy. Which means that I have gone 13 weeks and some days. The baby is due on October 31 so Halloween baby! I hope it will wear a nice costume coming out.
So far I have experienced all the pleasures of early pregnancy such as extreme nausea, constant vomiting, stuffy nose, nosebleeds, gaining weight, growing in the belly area and it appears my bladder has shrunk. I have also had a urinary tract infection and done a bout of antibiotics. I am tired and hormonal and I cry about the most insignificant things.
I have also grown two bra sizes which J seems to see as a positive thing.

We are currently throwing names back and forth but we seem to have somewhat settled on a girls name. No boys name yet though, so if you guys know of any good boys names then please let me know. We need serious inspiration.

W has taken the news of the baby with varying degree of excitement. At first he cried and told me he doesn't want the baby in mommy's belly. Now he has come to terms with it and he occasionally kisses the belly. He doesn't seem to know if it's a boy or a girl either. He tells me it's a sister one minute and a brother the next. He seems pretty set on the boys name though, Lightning McQueen. I'm not sure about it.

Yes another thing I want to ask you is if any one of you have some advice for properly preparing older child for new baby. I would like it if he didn't hate the baby and if he felt involved and proud to be a big brother. All advice are welcome.

Thanks
