shauni27, I had a feeling it was a girl, and our EM also thought girl, but I wasn't sure if it was just because I was hoping for a girl. I was so shocked that's what she told me! I'm still in shock!
PS - ultrasound photos make this child look like an alien monkey baby.
So, funny story. I was feeling especially beat today, so this afternoon I went down to my car and laid down for about an hour. (second time i've resorted to that this pregnancy.) I figure that when I recline the seat, no one will notice me unless they are walking up directly by my car. Then a guy actually did come get in the car right next to me and saw me laying there. oops, right? Turns out he was getting in his car to take a nap. LOL. he even had an eye mask and everything.
mpc, I really want to go take a nap in my car right now.
I was awoken at 1am by a beep every 10 seconds. Shit. The power is out. It must be one of the smoke alarms. I wasn't going to wake DH up to go get a ladder, etc., so I just shut the bedroom door and put a pillow on my head. That was not successful. I laid there almost an hour before DH got up and went to investigate. It was a CO detector. So he just wrapped it in a towel and threw it in the garage. Still didn't fall back to sleep until 3:30. Then I woke up every 45 minutes until 6am. Power still out. Had to just lay there and wait until it was light enough to be able to see anything. Couldn't dry my hair and did my makeup in the dark because it's super gloomy outside.

oneslybookworm, our ultrasound pics make Little Girl look like an alien monkey too!
What's everyone up to this weekend? Not much here - just going to visit family on Sunday, looking forward to that. I think it's actually supposed to be cold here - we're had a pretty mild winter so far so I can't really complain.
thoseareradishes, we've had an extremely mild winter. Normally by this point we've had either a few snow days or a few cold polar vortex days, and we've had no days called off yet this year. It's eerie, bc there have been some days we've gotten away with just Columbia fleece or a sweatshirt...In Dec and Jan in Chicago. Crazy!
I woke up before 5 am with stomach cramps that made me cry and of course my first thought was somethings wrong. ... Luckily I think it was just my digestive system trying to reset itself but God damn IF mindset.

Ugh, I'm sorry. I remember when I was about 34 weeks pregnant with A, I woke up from a nightmare where she hadn't been moving. Then I waited and couldn't feel her move. I sprinted to the kitchen and chugged a glass of ice water, and she started rolling around... but for a good 5 minutes I was terrified. It never really goes away. She's a year old and I've relaxed substantially, but sometimes I like to just watch her breathe when she sleeps.
