13 weeks, 4 days

*I never realized the 1st trimester doesn't end till 14 weeks (thanks Krista Ü)...I've been waiting for that blessed relief of the 2nd trimester, and it just hasn't hit yet.
*Not that I've been sick. I've been really lucky this pregnancy. With Bella and Aube I was sick for the entire day. Now, I just get a little queasy at night, a little wicked heartburn each night and complete exhaustion. I can totally tell the end is near, tho...my energy is gradually coming back (kinda).
*My 2nd appt was yesterday and all looked good. I weigh one pound less, but at my weight it really doesn't matter...it's all still TOO MUCH. I'm scared what I will top out at with this pregnancy, trying not to worry about it too much.
*The girls still don't get it...I'll give them some more time ;)....they still wonder why I ate the baby?
*Hormones suck (who didn't know that?)...I'm getting a nice dull headache every afternoon nowadays...totally not cool.
*Hearing the baby's heartbeat makes my soul so happy...it's not quite settled in that there will be a third child here in a few short months!
*Hoping for a boy...not going to lie and say I'm not! Of course, it's a girls name I have in mind....boy names are a little more difficult! I have a family name in mind for a boy...but James and I are not in 100% agreement. Next to labor, naming is the hardest part in my mind! Ü

Hehe!! Your welcome! At least you know why you are still feeling a bit blah:)
If the headaches get much worse, ask your doc to prescribe tylenol with codeine!! I had horrible headaches with both of my pregnancies and they would completely disappear when I took those...Just fyi:)
Hope you feel better really soon. Almost to that 2nd trimester! Yay! Love you.

you're gonna be fine with your weight. Just think you are growing a baby!! Pregnancy headaches are yuck! I got them with Hayden BAD and would take tylenol and I would have to lie in a dark room with a warm washcloth on my noggin. I do hope you are having a boy though. How does Cullen Kirchmann sound???

I do like Cullen...would go right along with my Twilight fascination. I actually love Colton for a boy...it's my dad's middle name, gramma's maiden name, but also my GIRL cousin's name. Sooo...thus the reason why James doesn't like it, lol.

if it matters, Grammy loves "Colton" but i don't know the little girl so I don't have that association. James told me that you were going with another name..... one that the intitials are: ME Kirchmann....???

Simply Sarah *K* said...

He thinks Merlin Eugene would be a good name. ME Kirchmann WOULD be funny, huh? lol. Of course, it's probably a girl ;) hehe.

Picking a name is so hard!! I'm sure you'll come up with something great though.

My baby Andrew was almost Colton....
Name him or her what you want!

Our Colton is the only girl that I know Colton.
