22 weeks...and an unplanned check up

So, now were down to 18 weeks left. Our baby girl is the size of a "summer squash" now, and weighs about a pound and a half. I can believe it. I'd been having some pretty strong upper back pain, and when I called the nurse about how to get it to go away, they wanted me to come in and be monitored just in case. So I did, and found out I was having Braxton Hicks contractions. (never had those with aubri). And I had no idea they could present in your back. Apparantly they can! Doc also said it's cause the baby is so big and I am so small. So they monitored the fetal heart rate, and it was normal, so I just get to get used to it! As long as Baby Girl Mandeville is ok, then I'll deal with some discomfort. It's all worth it!

19 Weeks Left...and Counting!!

19 weeks left....so just a small update for now. Our lil girl is moving around like crazy! I promise you she's is doing cart wheels in there! She moves at least 6 times a day, and it's always around the same time. (I don't even have to be paying attention to that yet, but I am!) We really need to sit down and talk about names!

~IT'S A GIRL!!!!!~

It's a girl!!!! It's a girl!!! We found out yesterday that we are having a little baby girl! yay! We're so happy. Don't have any names picked out yet though. But I think we have plenty of time. She is currently 12 oz, and already a drama queen! She didnt want to cooperate for the "camera" so that we could see that "she" was a "she" at all! Finally, after moving around, eating something, and a second ultrasound, she let us know! She's developing perfectly so far, and we couldn't be happier! Aubri was thrilled when we told her she was getting a little sister. 144 more days!!
