Bits and Tips

Tidbits of useful info I've picked up in the last week or so:

1) Always go to the doctor's with a full bladder - seems like everyone wants a urine sample. Also necessary for some ultrasounds.

2) Many sushi restaurants will make chicken rolls for you if you request them. My local Safeway makes chicken rolls as a standard variety, and the little sushi lady was delighted to come out from behind the counter and point out everything that didn't have raw fish when I told her I was pregnant.

3) In contrast, waiters in steakhouses typically are not happy to take orders for alcohol-free cocktails.

4) The most common follow-up question, when you tell people you're pregnant, is "are you going to find out whether it's a boy or a girl?"
