Look What Richard Did


Baby Oldham is on its way, due August 26th, only 6 more months to go! I have been feeling great, not sick at all. I have had some troubles with spotting and my doctor has been so kind to constantly reassure me the baby is okay with ultrasounds (I promise to not get another one until I find out the gender in 4 weeks). Here is the latest one taken at 13 weeks 1 day.

Funny story: Today I found out that my blood type is O-, which COMPLETELY shocked me considering that my parents and ALL my siblings are all O+. For those of you that don't know, if a pregnant woman has a negative blood type and her husband is positive, then she has to get a rhogam shot to prevent her body from from attacking the baby (or something like that). At any rate, we decided to have Richard tested to see if he was positive or negative, to determine if a rhogam shot was needed. Well it turns out Richard is A positive. I sent him a text and said "You are A+." He quickly responded and said "You are A++." He didn't quite figure out that I meant he was A positive. He thought I was giving him a compliment and say you are an A plus. Silly Richard!
