grapefruit did the trick!

Yay! 

Little Daniel moves so much!!!!! He never stops. My belly is always dancing! Everyone has felt him now. I'm up 18 lbs so far. Ill be 27 weeks at my apt next week. Can't wait to see his face again. Hope everyone is well.

so there is a bad flu going around and I have been trying not to get it but I work retail so I handle money all day. . Idk if its the flu but my tonsils hurt and my left side of my neck is sore.. And this fever is kickin my butt.. Clay is movin around so much I wonder if my not feeling good is making him not feel good.. :'(

Yeah the baby wasn't moving everyday until lately, now I'm feeling movements somewhere at least once a day, I think if I'm not as active during the day, she isn't either. Dunno.

But try to keep up the vitamin c ladies! I hope everybody stays healthy and if you get sick I hope you recover quickly. I had my flu shot and I think it helped me recover faster this time around.

So I'd like opinions on the name that my bf and I are talking about...How does Nola Lynn sound? Nola has been on my list since day 1 and the bf didn't like it to begin with but it's kinda grown on him now...I've looked through all the baby name lists and nothing else sticks like this one. Just wanted to see what you guys thought.  

I like the name Nola, it's definitely different. Makes me think of Lola, which I like too, but that darn song kinda ruins it.

As for the middle name, if you put it together it kinda makes you think of the name Nolan. That might even be a good nickname for her? I personally like it.

Feeling better today =D YAY!

So do you guys have people touching your belly? Is this something i should just get used too? Where i work I have a lot of regulars that come in shopping and one or two is always asking how i am doing that all nice and good but then i have one lady that comes in and rubs my belly.. its just kinda odd... my super visor (a girl and my age) does it too...

My husbands customer did that to me but I don't like being touched so I vow to be quicker on the draw and be like, NO!

Quoting cowgirl mama *its a boy!*:" Feeling better today =D YAY! So do you guys have people touching your belly? Is this something i should ... [snip!] ... then i have one lady that comes in and rubs my belly.. its just kinda odd... my super visor (a girl and my age) does it too..."

I dunno.. I haven't gotten too many belly rubs yet, I got one yesterday from a friend I hadn't seen in a while but I was okay with it. I think if it's a stranger though, or a customer at work, they should know their boundaries. I haven't had a random person touch my belly yet, just friends and family.. but then again I work behind a counter where no one can get to me (I don't even think half of the people I see every day even know I'm prego lol unless I have to get up and walk around while they're here). I'd put a sticky note on my belly saying "DO NOT TOUCH!" lol.

Today I had another ultrasound to check on my little Layla's heart (I can't remember what those things are called), but so far everything looks great! She's still a girl (I really thought she'd turn into a boy lol), her heart beat is strong and pumping good and she's growing perfectly. She's 1 lb. 6 oz. which is right where she should be, which is a relief since I'm a diabetic and we're known to have chunky babies lol. Yayyy!  
I'm at work now and can't get to my ultra sound pics, but I'll post them later when I can get to em.  

Hey ladies any of you experiencing a dull kind of pain right above your pubic bone? it feels like someone punched me..been that way since yesterday and not sure what's going on. Baby is moving around fine but the pain doesn't go away when she moves either. I had to get groceries at WalMart and though I was gonna go into labor by the time I got through and had to stop frequently to kinda catch my breath. Any clue as to what's going on?

My ultrasound pics from today! 23 weeks and 2 days. 




She was hiding her face today..


Lookin mighty comfy in there, Layla..

Beautiful pictures! You still managed to get in some good pictures even though she was hiding. Hope i'll be that lucky on my next 4D scan.

For some reason they are asking me to come in for a 22 week ultrasound because they didn't get a good enough look at her heart from last time at my 20 week scan. I think it might have something to do with the fact that she was laying on her belly or something. Hopefully she'll be flipped proper. I'm going in on Thursday so I hope everything will come out alright. Don't know why i'm so nervous suddenly.

As far as a pain above the pubic bone, do you think you are just stretching? I've been feeling like that above my bladder. It worries me because it makes me worry its a UTI or something. I keep having to pee like crazy and I always feel like a pressurized feeling as if I didn't empty all the way which sometimes I do run back and just a tiny smidge of pee comes out. Ugh.

dd2 did that to me once. I was so preoccupied that when I realized it I hadn't felt any movement it was going on 72 hrs! She was fine, just moved towards my back so I couldn't feel anything. She was going to town on the u/s at the ER. MIL had to come out at 6am and sit with our oldest lol it was kinda embarassing. I tried everything including a spoonful of sugar. Stubborn sneaky little girl!!

I like Kimberlyn. It's different! So I've been MIA-ish. Aaron is just going to town, much harder kicks and stuff. I think he may be heads down for now I keep getting really low kicks and pressure. While house hunting we went on these dirt/EBF roads and more than a few times I had to squeeze my legs shut it felt like he was trying to come early. He HATED those roads. He is really really low. I hope he stays put! The baby bunnies are now 8 days old. Lots of fur, really big and growing. Eyes and ears still closed. At least two other of my bunnies (one had them so bad her ear wouldn't stand up) have ear mites. The cat kind is clearing them up really fast just in 2 days I've noticed a huge improvement. Hubby has been working nonstop lots of overtime. Other than that been spending time with dd1 and dd2 trying to help them adjust. MIL found a full time job so that's thrown the girls' schedule on the weekends outta whack too. So that's my update- 25 weeks yesterday      

gonna finish catching up on this thread now.
