Not much to report

We had another appointment yesterday. Things are still going good. I'm still measuring a week and a half a head. When the doctor was listening to her heart beat with the dopplar, Macy gave us a good kick. We also had another ultrasound but unfortunately we don't have any pictures to share. They were mainly checking the placement of my placenta since it was low lying on my 20 week ultrasound. According to the ultrasound, she is measuring a week a head and it says my due date is May 4. The ultrasound tech said she has long legs according to their measurements. She tried to do a 3-D so we could see her face, but Macy wasn't playing along. She was face down and wouldn't let us get a peek. We will have to wait to see her precious face when she is born. Her heart is still beating along at about 140 beats per minute. I will have another appointment in 2 weeks and they will test me for Group B Strep at that appointment. Only about 6 1/2 weeks left!

Macy's Room

Here are some pictures of Macy's room. As you can see, the theme is ladybugs. Andy did a wonderful job painting even though he said he never thought he'd have so much fun painting a room pink! Not much longer now, only 7 weeks to go. It's going by so fast, before long she'll get to see her room. She has the hiccups right now as I am typing this! We have a doctors appointment and an ultrasound this week so there will be more pictures and news to share.

The name is out...

So last Saturday my sister and aunt had a shower in Omaha for me. Andy and I had gone up on Friday after work. We went out to eat that night with my mom and we were talking about our baby, naturally. My mom said that it would be okay if we told her the name, that she could keep a secret and that she is good at keeping secrets. I told her it was up to Andy since I've been wanting to tell the name since we picked it. Andy said he didn't care, so we told her it was similar to her name (Marcy) and Andy's dad's name (Mason). I told her to take the r out of her name and she said with a big smile, its Mary? I said no, take the r out of your name and then told her it was Macy. So then Saturday at the shower, Jenny, Andy's dad's wife some how found out that my mom knew the name. Jenny has been trying to get us to tell her the name for some time now and we hadn't given in (I guess she's not as manipulative as my mom!). So I told her she had to ask Andy. And once again, Andy being the nice guy he is said he didn't care if I told. So I told everyone at the table the first letter and right away my sister guessed the name right. So now the name is out. We are naming our little angel Macy. Her middle name is going to be for Andy's mom, Judy, but we're just using the first letter and spelling it Jai.

Still doing good

We had another appointment today and everything is going good. Her heart is beating at 156 beats/minute and I am measuring at 32 weeks even though I'm only 30.5 weeks. She continues to move around like crazy and is still head down for now, and hopefully she stays that way. I will have another ultrasound on March 24 to check the placement of my placenta and will have another appointment at that time.

Andy got the nursery painted, the crib is set up and bedding on. We have a glider/rocker so all we have left to get for furniture is a dresser. We plan to look for one next weekend when we are in Omaha for my baby shower. We'll have to take pictures of the nursery and get them posted on here for all to see.
