YUMMY, everyone should try them!

Perfect

Our baby girl is just perfect, she was little more cooperative today allowing the u/s tech get better pictures, but her hands were still over her face (I will post pics later) and we got one shot where her hands were over her face and right beside her face was her foot, so yes she was folded in half. How do they do that? She is still head down so hopefully she stays that way. I do not want to have a c/section with having a three year old to take care of later. So please stay head down. The u/s tech said she does have plenty of room to turn (thanks - not what I wanted to hear)

I felt alittle more movement today, so maybe it is starting??? She is 1 pound 1 oz, which is perfect for 23 weeks. I am so excited, I have so much to do to prepare for her. I signed Avery up for a sibling class which will happen on my Birthday. Avery also announced to family today at my Mom's what the baby's name is - YES we picked a name. Will announce later. My Parents already knew the name but my sister did not, to which she made the comment, maybe you should change her name. NOPE this is what we are going with.

I have to get stuff done this weekend. Which I already started tonight, I have to start my taxes which take forever with my business, but it has to be done.

Hope everyone is doing well! I am always praying and thinking of my readers daily.

I get to see my little girl tomorrow

Just typing my little girl still has not set in. I am having another little girl, whoa it is so surreal.

We have our follow up u/s tomorrow to see her face, because last time she had it buried in my placenta. I hope she is doing well. I do not feel her much (thanks anterior placenta) and am hoping to feel her a lot more in the next week. today i had a small freak out b/c I relaized I did not feel one little flutter all day, so off to check the heart beat, there is was beating away. Thank goodness.

Excited to see her again, hoping she grew alittle and is healthy as can be.

Finally a SNOW DAY!!!

I wanted a snow day so badly, but where I work my co-workers follow school schedules, so if the school gets called off so do they but me I have to wait for the office to be called off in order to stay home, this means all 18 school districts in our county have to call off first. I was sure I was going to be stuck in the office all alone today. But nope, we sleep in till 9 am and now I HAVE to get something done. I have to play catch up today. No laying around on the couch like I wish i could do, I NEED to get something done. So if I could just combat the fatigue from getting in the way we will be good.

BTW I am waiting for DD to ask to go out in the snow, to which I have to tell her to wait for Daddy to get home, b/c I HATE being cold and being pregnant that can not be good. She has not asked yet and has seen the snow. She even dressed in her snow suit last night saying she was waiting for the snow, at 9pm she had a long wait.

I am so behind...

I have done nothing for this baby, as I have said before. I have bought a few items, but I waiting to clean out my house, from top to bottom before going through baby items that were Avery's in order to see what i need yet. I just seem to be dragging my feet. Why? Not sure.

My tiredness has returned, so that has made getting things done harder, b/c I have been doing the bare minimum. Then when I go to sleep at night I am wide awake. It is frustrating.

I thought not taking a class this semester would help me get motivated to do things around the house I have been putting off b/c of school. It has not happened.

And (GRASP) my Christmas tree is still up (runs to hide) Yes almost a month later and it is still up, in my defense it is in our basement rec room so I do not see it often so I forget about it. Today we will be taking the tree down. Then I must move onto Getting ready for BABY!

I feel jipped...

With Avery she hardly moved, she just was a quiet baby. She would stretch out and I could grab her foot but we were in to see the DR alot b/c of non movement.

This baby is the same, here I am 22 weeks and all I feel is some fluttering and pushing on my bladder. Now this time I know I have an anterior placenta, so this makes a difference and I know eventually the movement will come, but I feel jipped. The one thing I was looking forward to was feeling LOTS of movement this time around and I think it is going to end up the same.

Please baby girl prove me wrong.

I have not written in a while...

Sorry.

I am so busy with work and stuff.

Just wanted to put out there how much IF sucks, my best friend just lost her tube due to etopic, second time first time they could save the other tube, it was OK. She is getting a HSG done to see if the other tube is OK. She is not in the mood to see me right now b/c of me being pregnant, which I understand, but it still hurts that IF could potentially tear people apart, I hope that doe snot happen. I wrote her am email about all my struggles and how I understand, Praying everything goes well for her and she gets pregnant soon.

Again IF sucks.
