Itchy and scratchy

I found out this weekend that I'm allergic to the sun while pregnant. I remember something mildly like this with my first pregnancy but this is awful. All weekend I sunburned very easily and broke out in these red, itchy welts. This isn't good news for someone spending the month of August in Florida and the rest of the pregnancy in Mexico. I guess I 'll have to start wearing long sleeves and high collars!

Otherwise the pregnancy is going really well. I am pretty huge this time around. There is a saying that the second pregnancy picks up where the last one left off. It's funny because I often get asked "when the baby is for" (in France it's phrased like that...) and when I respond with November I get a shocked "oh bon!" I guess they must be thinking I'm due in the summer sometime and November sounds a long way off.

We pretty much have the name all figured out for Little Miss Sushi and although we aren't telling everyone just yet a lot of our friends and family know. We chose the name about eight years ago when we first met in one of those corny "if we ever have kids what names do you like" conversations. The one we agreed on was a girl's name and unfortunately we didn't get to use it with Little S although we did call him by this name for the first four months of the pregnancy poor guy. Now we can finally use it, our abstract baby name. I hope it suits her!
