Big Headed Baby
We went to the doctor again today. Had another u/s. Yes, that makes five. All is well. The baby was asleep at first, then Dr. Hackett woke it up and it started flailing around like always. It is measuring ahead, like always. He measured it's head. It has a BIG head. I mean big enough for the doctor to laugh about how my labor is going to be!
We went because of spotting. Nothing major, but nonetheless frustrating. All is well. He has decided to classify me into the group of women who have spotting/that bleed during their pregnancy. I am back on pelvic rest and I am still on lifting restrictions. Thank goodness I have kids at school who love me and do whatever I ask :)
All in all, I am relieved and content.

Long time no post
A couple of things:
1. Yes, I've been slacking on the belly pics. Sorry. Tired and have had the stomach flu for the past two days. Not well.
2. Had an OB appointment today. Nothing major to report. It was a normal monthly visit. I was under weight a smidge, but I did spend all of yesterday puking my guts up with the stomach flu. They checked to make sure I wasn't dehydrated, and I am not. Thank goodness. They listened to the HB on doppler. 150. Good.

Thunder, nope our baby!
We went to the doctor, again. All is well. We heard the heartbeat. It was loud! It, as always, was flailing around in there! And, they printed us more pictures! I'll post them later.

Two Name or Not Two Name, That Is The Question
Dave and I have a debate, ongoing of course. I believe that a name needs to fit the kid. Because I believe this, I want to have two names for each sex picked out that we love and, most importantly, agree on and then once it's born we'll name it whichever one it looks like it should be named. Dave is against this. He says that we have a name for each and that that is plenty. He feels that I am wishy-washy regarding names and that he hates that I get him attached to something and then "change my mind". I have tried to express to him that this is not changing my mind, that it is simply having options to best fit our baby.
Who knows where it'll lead or end. For right now, we have one solid and great name for each sex.
