<<       excited for tommorow!       >>

I am so excited for tommorow! I am going to the OBGY tommorow! I am going to hear my babies heartbeat tommorow! I am just so excited. With Ariel I had a midwife. The midwife I had last time takes all of August off and I tried to get another one. Well I couldn't. Most places only have one midwife on duty for the summer months. I am okay with that. It's different the second time around. I know most things already. I am really glad that I had that the first time but I okay with this now. The OBGYN that I got now is actually the one that I saw when I had the seizure with Ariel and she delivered Ariel (both her and my midwife) so I know her already. She delivered my SIL's baby, a friends and I like her and she works with good people. She is close by and most importantly she is a woman! I am glad that she delivered Ariel, my midwife while I was in labour told me that she thought I needed an episotomy since Ariel was big. Dr H came right after that (it looked like she may not have made it) and didn't want that and instead poured warm saline water down there so that I wouldn't tear too badly. I really was blessed she was there!

Thanks for the comments on my last entry regarding baby names. I am pretty sure that Aiden is off my list. I love the name but I really hate how popular it is. I don't want in 10 year from now to think that is such a 2000 name just like we think Brittany is such an 80's 90's name! I like modern names that aren't too popular. Hudson is my favorite. I really have no idea for a girl. I so love Arabella but Chad is against it and he is so hard to convince! And really I don't want to take away from Ariel's name. I think I will go out and buy some new baby name books and see if any of those help!

Well I think that for sure I am going to find out the sex of this baby. I would like to find out RIGHT NOW what the sex is! This may be funny to some of you as I have written notes and comments telling you not to when you were pregnant! And let me tell you with Ariel I loved not knowing! It was great the surprise listening to what people thought. But since this is my last pregnancy more than likly it would be fun to know this time. We went to a baby and kids show here this weekend and the ulstrasound clinic was there and told me that they can do gender determination as early as 17 weeks. I think I wouldn't go that early and instead go after my regualr ultrasound at 20 weeks. Here you get one ultrasound at 20 weeks unless there is another reason. Towards the end of your pregnancy sometimes you may need others.

I did this how many kids test on facebook and it said I would have three. And it would be: girl, girl, boy. It made me mad! I wonder! In some ways I think this baby is a boy because: I have different symptoms, no morning sickness, with Ariel right away when pregnant I felt different not this time, and well this is personal but last time I wanted sex all the time and this time I have no interest whatsoever! Than I think it may be a girl because: I have the migraines again and I feel as bad, that stupid facebook test. I want a boy because it would be nice to have one of each. But it would be nice to have a girl as I never had a sister. But if I have a boy Ariel will be my only girl. I am not sure. It's fun to try to guess. What do you guys think?

I have been starting to potty train Ariel. She holds her pee for hours. I will change her diaper and touch her a good 3 or 4 hours later and it's still perfectly dry. She doesn't mind sitting on the potty but she holds it there too and won't pee! I've rented books and several videos from the libary. The past two mornings her diaper has been quite dry and I have put her on the potty after drinking milk. And sat and sat. Today for an hour in the bathroom, I knew she had to pee as she kept asking me for her diaper and I kept distracting her and telling her that she should pee on the potty. Than I thought to myself I will not have wasted this hour for nothing (it really is not cofortable sitting on floor!) so I put her on her potty in frount of the tv with sesame street. And I gave her a sippy cup with a bit of juice in it (I really don't give her juice that often kids are juice junkies) and she sat there and drank the whole thing. An hour and no pee! I asked her too and finally gave up as she got upset. She than peed the whole diaper so I know she had to go. It's frustrating. I asked on facebook for tips and practically everyone said to let her run aroudn bottom less. I think I may. She once did pee on the floor and got upset. I have a set up where I can close a few doors and there won't be much carpet. I asked me dad today if he has any plastic to cover my living room sicne it's a square, and he does! I know she drinks enough so that's not a problem. I will take a few days off though. Any tips?

Well I better run House is on!
