So for those not on my facebook flist, we are expecting baby #2 in July.
Until we know whether the new baby is a boy or a girl, zie will be known as Snimm (from the same Dr. Seuss story as Zanzibar).
I had a dream about nursing Snimm last night. In the dream, Snimm was a she.
I have had an odd certainty for a while now that Snimm will be a girl. Not sure though whether to chalk this up to intuition or a habit of thinking - you know, since I am used to putting the labels "my child" and "girl" together. On one hand, the dream could weigh in as further evidence. On the other hand, it could just be a product of said habit of thinking, especially given that in the dream Snimm looked very much like Rose (and not even Rose as an infant, but Rose as she looks now.)
When I was pregnant with Rose, though, I did dream repeatedly that she was a girl before we found out at the 18 week ultrasound. In most of those dreams she was just out of sight, but in one memorable one she looked kind of like one of those glowworm toys. So I'm not sure the visual my brain came up with is really anything to go on. And in any case, it's not like sisters never look alike.
Will be interesting to see whether I'm right. Chances are 50%, right?
