Q1: Was it planned?
A1: Sheesh! Yes!
Q2: How are you feeling?
A2: On the whole, not too bad. I was feeling some pretty strong nausea from about week 6 to week 13 but nothing that’s prevented me from eating normally. And I can keep food down and everything. The biggest shock for me was just how tired I was (and still am a bit). Apparently growing a person takes a lot of energy. Growing a person, feeling nauseated AND dancing in the PushPull show was just about the hardest physical thing I’ve had to do (I’m no tri-athlete, you know!).
Q3: Will you find out the sex of the baby?
A3: We’re not quite sure yet. Rob definitely wants to know. I’m kind of on the fence. Whatever we decide, we’ll do it together though. None of this ‘one of us knows and the other doesn’t’ scenario
Q4: Is that why you quit the Board at PushPull for the upcoming season?
A4: No, I didn’t know I was pregnant yet when I quit. I had other good reasons for doing that. However, it does make things easier. I don’t think I would have been able to stay on the Board and manage a baby at the same time.
Q5: Does this mean you won’t be dancing next year?
A5: Nope. I’ve been thinking about it constantly ever since the end of season. I’ve talked to Rob about it and the Artistic Director and we think that I’ll be able to take on just a few pieces this year. Something that would require only one night a week commitment from Sept to Jan., that would allow a break from Jan. to April, and would be back to one night a week from April to June. I’m going to try to do more ‘footwork’ styles this coming year and maybe not so much in the way of jumping and rolling on the floor kinds of pieces.

Hopefully, the stroller shopping will be the worst part of pregnancy for you, too. Well that 1st trimester nausea does suck.
Everyone's having little babies! Weeee!
Congratulations!!!
i'm glad the nausea is subsiding. congratulations once again!
You forgot a string of common questions:
-doctor/midwife?
-home/hospital?
-which hospital?
Congratulations guys!
I'm trying to brace myself for how weird it will be when I get back to Canada, and find that everybody I know in the country has had a baby since I left!
Not sure I can wholly embrace the "little Ho" moniker. :)
