Re: Central PA Moms-to-Be Check-In!
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet? Yes, we've decided on Anna for a first name, but we have not yet decided on a middle name.
b. Is it a family name/Have special meaning? Or is it just a name that you like? Not really a family name..... if we were having a boy I wanted the name Andrew (after my grandfather). But - #1 we're having a girl and #2 DH doesn't like the name Andrew. SO, I took the "An" and came up with Anna - a name we both like for our little girl! I would like her middle name to be a family name, but we just haven't found "the one" yet!
2) Updates? How are you feeling? Not too much to update... unless you want to hear me whine about being tired, the heat getting to me, my aching back, and the list goes on.... LOL! I had three different people tell me this weekend that I look like I dropped - crazy! Isan't it too soon for that?!?! I'm looking forward to my dr. apt. this week, (hoping that I didn't gain 8 pounds in 4 weeks again!) I guess that's about it :-)
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet? No not yet
b. Is it a family name/Have special meaning? Or is it just a name that you like?
2) Updates? How are you feeling? So far so good. Had 3 days of being nauseous all day. First appointment is Wednesday. Midwife said she's going to try to squeeze in an ultrasound.
1) We are working on it, we had a girls name picked out... have had one since we started dating... but we have trouble with boys names so we decided to wait and see if we were having a boy to even begin thinking about it. We made some progress over the weekend, narrowed it down it about 15. We both really like Ethan but since my cousin just had twins last month and named one ethan, we dont think we can use it.
2) Feeling better finally, on antibiotics for a sinus infection. The baby has been really active which I'm enjoying right now. I cant wait for the summer to be over, I'm sick of the heat.
1. We are having a girl and naming her Hannah Marie! I love that it is a hebrew name and means God's Grace as well as for Hannah in the bible who patiently waited on the Lord.
2. I am just about 37 weeks now and I am out of the "danger zone." Last appointment I was still 3 cm, but she would not check me too indepth because she did not want to "stir" anything up and send me into labor. We have not been allowed to have sex for the last 3 weeks, however, finally broke down last night, haha. I figured, well, if it induces labor now, we are good, and then at least we had one last go before the 6 weeks of waiting, haha. I see the doc on Thursday so I can give updates then!

2) Updates? How are you feeling?
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet?
We've decided on the first name (unless of course this isn't fitting when she arrives!) but we're trying to keep it somewhat of a surprise, although we've told some people. We have several names that we're considering for the middle name, but not sure yet what we'll use.

2) Updates? How are you feeling?
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet?
We have a first name picked out, but haven't told many people since we're trying to keep it a surprise. We have several names we're considering for the middle name - but we haven't made any decisions.
b. Is it a family name/Have special meaning? Or is it just a name that you like?
The first name isn't a family name. We actually picked it out the weekend before we found out we were pregnant. We had done well throughout the TTC process of not getting ahead of ourselves - I'm not sure how/why we decided to look that weekend! Guess it was just fate
Anyway, we found the name then and have loved it ever since.
The middle name may come from a family name.
2) Updates? How are you feeling?
Overall, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm still limited to as little activity as possible, but I have noticed a difference in how I'm feeling. I haven't had any contractions for the past week and a half, almost two weeks. I do get really tired very quickly though. Work starts tomorrow, so I hope it all goes well. I see my OB today, the GI specialist tomorrow and then back to the perinatologist next week.
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet? Yes. I only post the name on the baby name board and have told my mom. She's not too fond of it though. Oh well, not her choice.
b. Is it a family name/Have special meaning? Or is it just a name that you like? Just one we liked. We had actually had 2 names prior to getting pg but since being pg neither one of us cared for them anymore so we picked this new one. Rather I picked it and Dh eventually agreed

2) Updates? How are you feeling?
I think the rest of my belly finally "popped" Sunday. it doesn't look like a fat pooch so much anymore. Now I have the top part,too. I swaer it does all this in my sleep. or what i got of sleep that night. Sunday during the day, I just felt really heavy in the belly and was really waddling. I felt like I had just eaten a huge dinner and was paying for it with how full i felt. Today, the full bump is still there, but I don't have such a fullness feeling anymore.
We have also started "hooking up" LO to music. Dh had downloaded a ton of classical music onto his MP3 and I've been spending 30 minute or so increments with the headphones stuck in my wasteband have the LO listen to the classics. Apparently it does settle him down. The last time, he had been moving like crazy and within a minute or so of starting the music, he settled right down. Now, the music at the time was rather quiet and soothing in nature. I'm not sure how he's be with the faster louder tempoed tunes.
As for me, I"m doing pretty good. As long as i keep the Zantac in my system, I pretty much don't have to worry about nausea, getting sick or heartburn. Although later at night, no matter how late I've taken my pill, i still seem to get a bit of heartburn, but only when i shift positions, then it subsides.
Hi! I just started on the board but I am a Central PA mom EDD 11/29/09 with a boy who is number 1 for me but number 2 for DH.
1) a. Have you decided on a name for your LO yet? Caleb Tucker
b. Is it a family name/Have special meaning? Or is it just a name that you like? Middle name is after my brother.
2) Updates? How are you feeling? I feel good. I'm on Zantac which works about 75% but its usually tolerable when not working completely.
I'm probably a day late and a dollar short but I'd love to join the Central PA team (since it seems like there aren't many on here!)
