Too Much Too Early?

It's only been four days since I found out that I had a little embryonic bun in the oven, but I can't help but spend most of time reading through pregnancy websites like TheBump.com, WebMD.com, and ThePregnancyZone.com.

The thing about TheBump is that it has taken up so much of time with all of its nifty tools like their Gender Chart which is an ancient Chinese chart that predicts the sex of your baby based on your age and month of conception. It claims to be more than 90% accurate, so it looks like I might be having a girl.

And since I've calculated that I might have a girl, my gears got right to spinning over names. The Bump also has their Baby Namer, which let's you search through names based on sex, origin and what other's have ranked them. You can also create a favorites list and even a poll so that friends and family can vote on the names you've picked from the list. Kinda nifty.

Anyway, like I've said, I've jumped the gun a bit and be and Sebastian have our list of favorite names. Sebastian and I are both Latin so we kind of want to have names from the Spanish language. The thing is that Spanish female names mostly consist of Margarita, Consuela and Maria and we're really not planning on spawning an abuela straight out of the womb. So we're a little more flexible with the girl names.

Girls:
Matilda
Mina
Penelope
April
Alice
Liliana

Boys:
Francisco
Ignacio
Guillermo
Samuel
and Raul (my father's name) as a middle name

Hopefully I'm not getting ahead of myself. I just really want this baby and have already grown attached to the idea. Maybe I should hold my breath until the first trimester passes in about 6 weeks and just put all my focus on school. Speaking of which, I have a quiz tomorrow.

I think I have a laundry list of things you should wish me luck on, but for now just wish me luck on that quiz.
