… we are still in the unknown of what is inside that little baby bump showing on my belly. I would like to keep it a secret until fall when we have the baby in our hands. It is so much fun to go around and guess, and ask other people what they think, and read funny folklore about what the ‘olden days’ would have thought you are carrying. Like, “eating a lot of salt means you’re having a boy”, or “if you were very nauseous the first months you are having a girl”. In that case my baby will be half-half as I was super nauseous the first 2 months, but crave salt and can’t stand sweets or sodas. This will sure be an interesting time. In one way I wish it would fo faster, but on the other hand I probably need the time to get used to be a parent. Only six more months to go.
To make it feel more real, we actually went to Ikea and got a crib. I might even start to move things around in the room to make space for it. I have it all planned out, and to make it clear: the room will neither have a pink or blue decor. the baby doesn’t know what the colors stand for anyway, plus I never had that and turned out fine :).
Instead of choosing a white finish on the crib we decided to go with more gray/brown, as that matches the rest of the furnitures in the house better.
This is the very same crib but in the right color (but somewhat cut off):
Can’t wait to see what ideas that pop into mu head over the next 6 months, regarding room decor etc, I just know that the room should in the future have a bean bag for the child (they are so much fun!), a basket filled with different books, a nicely colored bed sheets. We’ll see if that actually comes true or not, right now we are more focusing on my eating habits and gaining some weight after the nauseous period instead of thinking about any type of decoration. Plus names of course, but they will stay secret until the baby is born. :)
