Last night I called my future rainbow Jack. Honestly I don't even remember what Jim and I were talking about but we were talking about the upcoming FET and I referred to the possible next baby as Jack just not even thinking about it. I've never done that before...maybe it was the two tall sized Leinies I drank at BDubs that made me do that.
I felt so awful at first thinking "Oh no, its a Freudian slip and I'm already wishing this next baby were Jack....and I'm going to treat this one different because he/she isn't Jack...." but now that I think about it , its kinda funny.
I'm already a parent and parents call their kids the wrong names all the time don't they? I don't know for sure since I'm an only child but I do know that my grandpa used to call me Carrie all the time (Carrie is my aunt/his daughter) and I remember him calling her Katie at times too. Oh and my IL's call me Jill who is one of my SILs....and sometimes she gets called Kate. I don't even say anythign to correct it anymore, I just respond like its my name too LOL.
Maybe its not a Freudian slip that I'm wishing next baby was my Jack afterall....but rather a parent who is just too stressed to keep her kids straight. Haha.
