I'm sorry for being kind of sporadic the last couple days - I woke up yesterday extremely sick (cough, fever, the works) and it's still here. :(
No fun! Get well soon. I hope it’s not Covid.

Diva does mention Mrs. Vanderbilt...which could work for yellow 7...but she isn't mentioned a lot - remind me again if there is a minimum of how many times a character must be mentioned?
The character has to have dialogue. If they have a name and dialogue it’s good.

Your Goodread shelf shows a date started on this one of January 31. If you started it before Uno started, we can't use it. If, on the other hand, you simply marked it started before you actually started it, like I sometimes do, can you fix it?
Paula wrote: "I've read Gemina a couple of years ago, If we need to move it for Reverse =)"We have a bunch of Reverses this month, so if we get extra color card books we may be able to move it. Have you read Obsidio? I may finish my re-read this month, or I may wait until next month. Depends on the mini-challenge tasks.

With your first, it can be all about the baby, but with the second you also have to take #1 into account. The hardest for me was going from 2 to 3 because then they outnumber the parents. But my #2 and #3 are 17 months apart, so that might have been part of it for me.
Good luck with that sleep cycle. The only advice I have is that if you nurse, see if you can nurse laying down. It never worked for my sister-in-law, but I was able to lay down in bed with my babies and nurse. I just wish I had discovered this when my first was nursing!
