Christine you're right--the countdown is beginning--for some of us more than others. I'm glad to hear you're not freaking out and that they are being very cautious with your care.

I was thinking about Shelley's names too! THis is awful to say but I'm getting rather caught up in just getting to the finish line I haven't been so concerned about having everything in place...which I really should as who knows when I will go into labor or another med complication may pop up. I had a boy and girl name but knowing it's two girls, I have my one girl name I love and have not found another that I feel as strongly about. I do have a select few on my short list. I'm sounding like such a non-model expectant mother right now, geez. If I can get some sleep tonight maybe I'll have a fresher outlook tomorrow. All the tough symptoms are coming into play now: heat, veins, pain in legs and hips, G/I stuff, some depression and low energy....just getting around has been a struggle lately. I need to chill a little bit I think, definitely an A/C night.
