Baby News: Interview with a Pregnant Women

The following is a rare interview with a real live pregnant woman. Parents be advised, some material may be inappropriate for children… okay not really, but it sounded cool to say it anyway.

And now, in all her glory, Stephanie Hughes, as interviewed by Matt Hughes.

M: The ultrasound is only 4 days away….how are you feeling?
S: Very excited and anxious.

M: Do you know who the father is yet?
S: I have a good hunch, but I won't know for certain until the paternity test comes back...keep your fingers crossed.

M: Any thoughts or aspirations on if it is a boy?
S: I'm hoping he grows up to be the next JFK, or man on the moon, or Babe Ruth. I'm trying not to set my expectations too high though.

M: Any thoughts or aspirations if it is a girl?
S: Here's to being locked up until your 18 kiddo :)

M: Rumor has it; you and possibly the father, are having nervous break downs? Is this true?
S: For me it comes in spurts...I can't really speak for the father, see the question above.

M: You seem to be a bit of a workaholic; will you miss work while on leave?
S: Not at first but I'm sure after I've been home a few weeks I'll be itching to log in and see what's going on. Then again...probably not at all.

M: Have you been buying baby items yet?
S: We bought some wipes the other day, but that's about it. Still need to find out if it's a boy or girl. I'm kind of a pink and blue person.

M: Have you been picking out Baby names?
S: We've tossed a few around, but nothing solid. I'm guessing we won't know until the baby is actually here. I'm told it could all change once you actually meet the little one.
M: Might I recommend if its a boy,"Speed"? ...Speed Hughes... now that is a good name.

M: How is the baby room coming? I’m assuming you’re almost done with it by now.
S: Oh yeah, we're almost done moving out of it so we can start. I'm sure we'll be done in the next six months or so.

M: How is your sex life? (JUST KIDDING!!!! Man, you should have seen the look on your face! Common, we keep it PG-13 on this site the best we can. :-P )

M: What is the best part about being pregnant?
S: Daydreaming about all the amazing things we will get to go through with our baby.

M: What part could your live without?
S: The sore kidney's, the "not quite showing but starting to" look, having to be cautious about how much I'm lifting and how much I'm running around...

M: What is the square root of 41?
S: My calculator is broken... I have no idea
M: Are you sure you are ready to have children?

M: Any outrageous food cravings?
S: Not yet...although I seem to enjoy cheese and mustard sandwiches a lot...and grilled cheese sandwiches...and cheese and relish sandwiches...and cheese cubes...

M: I’m sure are readers are just in awe...how could they not be. :) Thanks for your time and good luck with the whole baby thing. You will have to let me know how it goes.
