Re: Monday Ticker Change (11/14)
Appointments this week? Normal check up on Thursday - excited to hear the heartbeat, 4w between visits just feels so long!
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? We have one that we are about 90% sold on. So weird, with DS I fell hard in love with a name. With this baby, I've been so wishy washy. I like the name and can totally see it being her name but just have a hesitation for some reason.
Appointments this week? Nope. A/s in two weeks and I'm getting nervous.
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? Well we decided to NOT name her my favorite name because it's too popular. But now we're back to the drawing board and I think I'm going to have a new favorite every week. Currently loving Mila, Micah, Gianna, Charlotte. DH is not being remotely helpful.
Appointments this week? None this week
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? We have a few on the list but nothing concrete. We've kind of stopped thinking about it for a bit. We kind of keep going back to Miles.
Appointments this week? Nope
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? We have a girls name, and my husband insists we call the baby by that name even though we don't know what it is yet. (He really wants a girl). We haven't settled on a boys name yet. Although we'll share the gender with family and friends, we will keep the name to ourselves.
Appointments this week? None
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? We have decided on Landrey
Appointments this week? A/S on Friday!!!!
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options? We like Isla and Henley for a girl, and Sawyer and Lukas for a boy. I think Sawyer and Henley are our tops, but I think we will probably have two names picked out until baby is born.
Baby is approximately the length of a banana, though he's measured about 5 days ahead at my last couple of ultrasounds.
Team blue.
Appointments: I have a standard appointment this afternoon. Our anatomy scan was last week. The high risk doctor said our son looks perfectly healthy and he added, "big hands, big feet, big noodle," telling my husband that if he were him, he would beat his chest with pride. Haha...what??
Symptoms: Heartburn. Congestion. Trouble sleeping. Some movement despite anterior placenta.
Raves: I'm off today, I enjoyed an amazing 20-week celebratory pedicure this morning, I have a pot roast in the slow cooker for dinner, and I'm looking forward to my prenatal yoga class tonight. Wahoo!
Rant: Can someone tell me why The Bump congratulated me this morning on being "almost" to the halfway point?
GTKY: Our list is ever expanding. When we finally choose a name (if it's prior to delivery), we'll likely keep our selection a secret.
Also, I am particularly glad to hear that you are feeling some movement at 20 weeks with an anterior placenta. I am not so patiently waiting to feel baby. It was always my favorite part of pregnancy.

Team Blue!
No appointments until December 2nd.
I'm still gaggy but I haven't puked for several days. Still tired and wake up sore in the mornings. I don't think that will be going away.
I have been feeling little man moving around from time to time in there. It's nerve wrecking right now though because I don't consistently feel it. If I don't feel him for a while, I start getting nervous. I have to keep reminding myself that he's still small and I won't be able to feel him all the time.
Right now, we do have a name we both like (I love) but we aren't settling on it just yet. Micah is at the top of my list. I think it also goes well with our last name and our DS's name. DH mentioned Caleb the other day and I do like it too. My hiccup with it is it doesn't blend well with our last name. Our last name starts with B too and I fear it will come out sounding like Kayla instead if for instance he's in class and a teacher uses both his first and last names.
2. Bell pepper.
3. Girl#3!
4. Still some nausea, but less. Still exhausted. My skin isn't perfect like it was pre-pregnancy. Wah!
5. I'm eager to feel movement. I think I've felt her a few times but nothing regular. I have a Doppler so I know she's ok, but I felt both my girls prior to this so I'm ready to feel this one regularly.
6. Depends who you ask. Lol. DH has chosen a name. I like it, but I'm not ready to commit. He shoots down all my other suggestions. Sigh.

I finally decided for sure last night the "things" I was feeling is indeed baby! It's been going on for about 2 weeks, but it was so small and sporadic I didn't know what it was for sure. The past few nights it has been consistently more and more!! I can't wait until it gets strong enough to feel on the outside so DH can experience it as well. He is so excited!
GTKY: Where are you at on the name front? Have you picked one? Options?
The name is for sure Jordan Matthew after my DH....just wish I felt as happy about it as he does...
Were you feeling much more at 18 weeks with your boys?
