Third trimester here I come

I can't believe I am in the home stretch. I had my ob appointment today and all is well with the beanster. I managed to gain a whopping 6 lbs! WTF? I weighed just two days ago and I had only gained 3 lbs. Can you say MAJOR water retention due to me having tator tots and a corndog and not dousing myself in water. My ring is noticeably tighter. I guess water is going to become much more important this trimester. I said to doc that I thought that the baby has gone through a growth spurt. He said that baby measures right on. So I playfully mentioned that I guess I am going through a growth spurt. I guess he is an experienced husband and realized that it was better not to comment on my weight gain. Smart man. On a funny side note we were talking about his surgery on his shoulder and I asked him how he felt. He said that he was still sore. I guess I must have drifted onto a new topic in my mind. He said that he would not consider doing it again without a lot of thought. I blurt out that I have considered the idea of having another baby and have thought long and hard and have decided to stop after this one. I said my husband was in the lobby if he wanted to mention the ole snip and clip. He laughs and says he was talking about shoulder surgery (visualize me opening my mouth and inserting my foot). Can I blame that blunder on hormones too?

This poor baby is still nameless. It seems my husband is wanting to keep the j name thing going and we are at a standstill. He is concerned that this baby will feel left out if we don't have it's name start with a j like dad and brother. I did mention that we could have a p name baby but unfortunately have not found a good boy p name I really like. Suggestions anyone? I have teased him that the minute he leaves me alone at the hospital I am going to sign the baby's birth certificate with my choice. I am sure it will resolve itself soon.

Hormones are running amuck as this morning, before my ob appointment, my waterworks started over a very small disagreement. One of those goofy ones that a hormonally challenged woman gets over her husband not sitting with her on the couch and watching "A Baby Story" on tlc before the ob appointment. Good grief! I felt like a big goofball. I always get nervous and emotional before my ob appointments. I can't wait for my hormones to go back to their prepregnancy state.

I was just over checking out Ms Katie's blog and saw her link to her local crazy woman thinking it is ok to cut a baby out of a woman's uterus. What is up with these women? My husband is afraid to even let me go out alone at this point.

On a lighter note Jacob has finally made a successful deposit in his potty. Unfortunately it has not been followed by any more successes as yet. I am hopeful he will get it all figured out soon. Today he did actually want to try and sit to poop but since it did not come fast enough for my extremely active toddler he decided to get up and go hide and finish the job under a large plastic box. Someday....*sigh*
