Conservative Parenting

I'm back!  My computer is finally virus free.  I somehow royally screwed it up.  I sure hope it wasn't from visiting IVillage, because I really don't visit any risky sites.  Maybe it was FB, who knows.

Anyway, I have an appointment tomorrow.  I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out what to do about having this baby.  It's tougher to line up babysitting for three kids while I'm in the hospital.  My mom can't keep taking off several days of work everytime a grandkid is born (they're waiting on 7 & 8 now and two of my brothers haven't even started having kids yet).  Plus the timing of this baby w/ Christmas is going to be crazy.  And now we have a kid in school, so we have to work that out, too!  There's so much about the whole thing to process that I can't even get it straight.  I can not schedule a C section for a lot of reasons.  Basically I guess I'm saying that I'm very scattered lately... even more so than usual!!

My third trimester is feeling like a mix of one and three.  I am worn out all the time, I feel a bit sick to my stomach all the time (not nearly as bad as m/s, but still there), and I am just ready to be done.  I told my friend the other day that I was 8 months prego and she said Only one month to go, then!  And I said, "Ha!  Two months to go.  They tell you pregnancy lasts 9 months, but it's really 10.  Dirty trick."  :)

Hope everyone is feeling good(ish) this week, and those babies stay healthy!  :)

I have been having the worse charlie horses at night. I need to go to the store and purchase a calcium supplement to see if that helps. My calf muscles hurt like the devil upon waking up. It is really effecting the quality of my sleep.

We are settling in very well but there is still much to do. The base Catholic community seems like it will be a good Faith community for us. Paul starts storytime at the library tomorrow. I am very much ready for him to finish adjusting to all the changes that have happened lately. He is def. having some issues.

I am waiting for the insurance to switch over so that I can actually schedule a routine appointment. The baby has started to move so that others can feel.

It was actually really funny the other day Paul was sitting on my lap and he felt the baby move. He slide of my lap and gave my tummy a very offended/confused look and then wouldn't sit on my lap.

Had my u/s this morning. We're on the Pink team :) Another little girl. The baby is measuring a week ahead and is appx. 13 oz. She was giving the techs a hard time with measurements, but we finally got them all.

We had a name picked out, but now I am rethinking it. We were going to go with Chloe, but we have Kaiden, Kayley, then to add a Chloe seems a bit too much "K" sound to it.

So now back to the drawing board on names :P
