The Most Boring Doctor's Appointment Ever
Well, today I had my second doctor's visit for Shark Bait. For no reason in particular, I was really hoping the doctor would want to do the ultra-sound today to find out if Shark Bait is a girl or a boy. That was not the case. In fact this was the most boring doctor's appointment ever. (Which, I suppose I should be really glad about because that means everything is going well and that there are no problems. But I think I just really hoped we'd get a little more info than that.) Lincoln and I got there about 5 minutes early and waited in the waiting room for about 20 minutes. Then the nurse called me back, weighted me, took my blood pressure, and asked if I needed to use the bathroom. I thought that was weird because they usually make you pee in a cup every time you go, but today no cup. I was glad about that, I've lost all my aim since I've been out of practice for the last 14 months, but I'm sure I'll reacquire it, since I'll have plenty of chances to practice. :) (Sorry if that was a little more info than some of you wanted to know.) Anyways, then the nurse lead me to the exam room, the doctor came in shortly, asked if I had any questions, listened for the heart beat, and that was that. Come back in three weeks to find out the gender. He did say that if the theory about a baby's heart rate were true, then I would be having a girl. So...with the next three weeks to kill before I can finally find out what we're having, I've made up this little poll so all of you can vote too. Feel free to comment and let me know why you made the choice you did. We'll all know the outcome on November 10th!

Irrelevent to this post, but in answer to your question: There are several frozen foods/mircowave dishes you can have on hand made by Morningstar farms or Gardenburger. They are at Walmart and Albertsons, pretty much anywhere. They have "chicken nuggets", "buffalo wings", "chicken pattys" and "veggie burgers" "hotdogs". You may opt for veggie burgers and some cheap $1 buns. However, they are kind of expensive.
You have no need to fret. You can do what members of both my family and Michael's family do. They make the exact same dish they would usually make, but use like a fourth of the pan to leave out the meat. So if my mom makes me a lasagna, she doesn't put hamburger on one half. Or if its spaghetti, she will just leave some sauce without hamburger for Michael and I. Pretty much you can make whatever you usually would make, but just leave his portion meatless. Trust me, vegetarians are not picky despite what some may think.
You have nothing to worry about. The fact that you are even concerned for him says alot about the kind of caring person that you are :)
I voted girl because I am totally jealous that you're pregnant, but if I were having a baby I'd want a girl. Plus Lincoln is so dang cute I'd love to see what your little girl would look like. :)
