So I have been really terrible about updating on my pregnancy, but nothing really exciting or new has happened. Week 19 & 20 were more of the same.... not feeling horrible, but not feeling fabulous either. I've still been really tired, I think chasing a 2 year old is a big part of that. Still no real appetite to speak of, just trying to come up with some food that I think I can choke down.
Mother's Day weekend I could tell I was getting the cold that Jeff had started getting at the first of the week. Hannah also started getting it & by Sunday neither of us felt very good. The week was long with lots of coughing fits, & can I just tell you that having a heavy uterus push on your bladder is never a good thing when you are trying to cough up a lung? I think anyone who has been pregnant can understand what I went through. I still have the cough, but am starting to feel a little better.
I did have a doctor's appointment last on Wednesday, very routine. No real significant weight gain... if at all. I say this because they do a really strange job of weighing me. She is always a little lazy & just moves it to where it isn't hitting the bottom or the top, but it's not balanced, so there is a 3 -5 lb range. So according to my chart I think I lost 5 lbs, but as of my last appointment I had gained like 8 lbs in a month, neither of which was accurate. So I pretty much just go by my scale at home.
As for the name of the baby, we still have not decided on a name. We did narrow the list down a bit & there are some names we seem to be leaning more towards. We have yet to receive any real positive feedback on the choices, which is rather annoying. Not that I am wanting or needing validation from anyone, but I'd prefer to hear nothing. I mean I know plenty of people that have chose names for their kids that I haven't been wild about, but I've been kind enough to not say anything to their face, or to any mutual acquaintance about my opinion on the subject. Isn't that common courtesy? These comments don't change my opinion of the names I am considering, they change my opinion of the commenter & they make me want to keep our choice quiet until the little guy is here & legally named. So let's just make a new rule of don't comment on the names I am considering for my children & I will make sure to do the same with your children! Deal? Great!

I totally agree. People can be so dumb when commenting on the names you like. A few weeks ago I had a post about names, you should reading the tips for dummies I gave people.

I ran into Kendall in March at LDS hospital. She played dracula on me. It was fun to see her. Congrats on the pregnancy. I totally agree with the weight thing. I apparently gained 8 lbs a month for my last 4 months with Clara, but unfortunately for me, it was probably true. I really liked ice-cream my second time around. Hope everything goes well.
