Can anyone watch Helen on Fri 1/27 in the afternoon?

Preferably someone not too far from Sanford or Biddeford? It would be from about 1:30 to 3:30 (maybe a little earlier/later depending on how far away you are).

Here's the deal: I have an ultrasound scheduled in Biddeford on Friday 1/27 at 2:15. I'd really like DH to be able to be there (it's our first peek at this little one), but if he's with me then no one is available to watch Helen.

We could bring Helen along but we're afraid that between the exam and whatever gets said during the appointment that she'll figure out that I'm pregnant...and if she knows, she's going to tell everyone. We're hoping to keep this a secret from our families and the general public until after we get results from genetic testing (we're planning to do a CVS due to my age).

I can offer money, baked goods, trading babysitting time, and/or my undying gratitude. Naming rights for the new baby are not available.

Re: Can anyone watch Helen on Fri 1/27 in the afternoon?

  • That day is turning out to be busy, but my MIL will be back in town so I may be able to do something. Although, naming rights would really clinch it for me :P I'm not too far off Rt 1 on the Arundel/Port line so it would be close to your appt. I'll let you know if no one else chimes in.

    Jackie - if you read this, this means I may be late or not be able to make your GTG. 

     

  • If you appointment was a little later I would be able to do it... but will still be at school when you have to be there, would have loved to return the baby watching favor!  Maybe next time!

  • Yup!  I can.  I'm having a few folks over from meetup for a little playdate anyway at 3:30 and was going to invite you since not many signed up through meetup.  Sweatpea, you and the boys can come too if you'd like!

  • Oh, and PS...I made you a little something from the fabric you gave me.  It was supposed to be a Christmas surprise, but you had to go ahead and go out of state.  So it's a little late.

    You can't even pick names for your own babies! Wink

    If she found out it was because you were trying to keep her from seeing her new baby brother(s) or sister(s) (hey could be twins)....she may not thank me.

    It's not twins! It can't be!

    I'm actually pretty sure that I have a singleton because I had lovely internal exam with the NP today who said I feel 6 weeks pregnant, which is how far along I think I am. If it were more than one, I would feel bigger, right?!

    If you were having a boy it would work perfectly. DH just wants someone to have his name, then I could name or possible boy the name I want :P

    Jackie - Group says 3:00 pm FYI

    If Jackie works, great. If not, I can watch Helen at my house and then head to Jackie's afterwards for our playgroup. 

  • Oh yeah, 3:00. That's the time, thanks!  I'll be happy to watch Helen while you take a sneak peek at your twins.

    If we name one Allan, we have to spell it with two Ls like Allan McNish, the Audi driver. Stick out tongue
