Things I’ve Learned This Week
— You can buy an alcohol detection test for breast milk. (scary thing I never thought would be a necessary item)
— Since I have been feeling the baby kick more regularly. Apparently she enjoys the Hokey Pokey.
— She especially likes doing the hokey pokey after I eat non-bland food (even spaghetti sauce).
— A baby kicking your innards is very distracting. It doesn’t hurt (she is still too small), just very distracting.
— You can register for bras and underwear at the baby store. (I am not sure I’d buy someone a underwear off their registry… too personal of an item)
– Confirm scary stories about products or techniques with multiple, reliable sources before buying into them.

Things I’ve Accepted This Week
— Although maternity pants are still horrible, I am going to need them sooner than later. I ordered 2 pairs and a pair of jeans. (WISH ME LUCK!)
— The stroller doesn’t HAVE to match the carrier.
— Having the nursery safe is more important than it being cute.
— You can eat like old people and be happy.
— I am an XML idiot
