I was branded a liberal last weekend by friends of mine when I told them we knew what sex baby we were having...And they've known me for years! Hahaha! We don't do any of the pre-natal screens for diseases, as I feel its a blanket for justifying 1st trimester abortions (just my personal take, I do know pro-lifers who get the tests to more thoroughly prepare for their babies, but Mike and I don't have a high risk for genetic disorders...) But I think, so long as they're going to do ultrasounds anyway, that's a non invasive factor Mike and I can find out ahead of time to help us get ready for our blessing:) Pull out and wash clothes, give a name to, prepare the kids for (the boys all call her "baby Gabby":) It's bonding to know whether you're carrying a boy or a girl, from my experience...Liberal or not! LOL<br /><br />@ Dawn - totally with you on the political arena. There's so much going on right now! I'm almost overwhelmed by it all, but its all so important I refuse to become indifferent:) I keep praying and keep my wits about me (what wits I have left anyway)...PattyinCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04286757995048861826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8053163294677552820.post-17434181279989450782010-07-12T07:19:17.781-07:002010-07-12T07:19:17.781-07:00Hey!

(I'm hoping to find out whether we're having a boy or girl - a lot of people have VERY strong opinions on finding out the gender, I'm discovering). We didn't find out with the other two, but I want to know this time.<br /><br />By the way, I don't know if I'd recommend "Left to Tell" when you're pregnant. :) It is extremely vivid and highly emotional. I read it in one day and sobbed most of the way through. And then I was sad for weeks afterward. :O<br /><br />Then again, if you're getting through a history on the second World War, maybe you'll be fine. :)<br /><br />AndreaAnonymous Catholic Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00024185509923727963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8053163294677552820.post-12023683111574638202010-07-12T04:05:50.668-07:002010-07-12T04:05:50.668-07:00Congratulations on a sweet little girl!

One more CAT test to give and then I can start putting away last year and setting up for next year. Where does the time fly! There has been so much political stuff lately that I can't keep up. I think about something...get ready to write and then something worse happens. Ugh.<br />Left to Tell is a great story. Difficult to read because of the subject matter, but definitely life changing. I'd love to hear your review.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12815449256742930541noreply@blogger.com
