Ahhhhh, babies.
Well she's here. If you haven't heard, she's fantastic.
Elvis Glo Danger Daly. Named partly after my Grandmother, whom I love so much.
Danger was a name we had picked out when I was pregnant with Quattro. If it was a girl we were going to name her Daisy Danger, then when I got pregnant this time, everyone was naming their dogs Daisy- so that was out. I like the name Elvis. In fact, I love it for her. She is Elvis, she looks like an Elvis.
We aren't ragging fans, we don't have Elvis coasters and there's no Elvis clocks in our house. I mean, we have the records, we are fans like nay other warm blooded person, but we didn't name our daughter Elvis because we are freaks- you know them, hell you probably have an aunt that is obsessed with him. Alas, we just like the name. It fits her and really, could we name our daughter Jane?
I don't think so.

8 days...
This is too much.
We did a photo shoot with our friend Brian last week. It was a blast and I am so happy with the way they turned out. I can't help it, I make a pretty good looking pregnant gal. None of that sweat pant, bun on top of my head. It just couldn't be, I have to match my outsides with my insides and honestly with 8 days to go I feel completely rockin'.

It's all set. Now all she has to do is not pull the plug on the pregnant party and stay put.
I go in at 8 a.m. in exactly 30 days and I will be the mother of two by 10:30 a.m.
It's weird to know when it will all go down, well if it does in fact all go down on the 9th.
I'm fine if it doesn't but I don't want her to come early. I like my babies big and fat and 40 weeks.

NST's anyone?
It's a "non stress test" and I am getting my fill of them.
I have to go twice a week, I am guessing because of the medication I was on- the lasiks (no not the eye surgery lasiks) but the diuretic. Well I'm not taking it anymore and they are still making me go. Boo.
I went back last week and got another steroid shot in my wrist. Wow. That's painful. But if anyone is reading this who has carpal tunnel pain due to pregnancy- go get the injection. It will change your life.
I was at a CPR class tonight (with Q as my partner- rad) and there were two women wearing those wrist splints, I felt their pain and promptly told them to go get a "fix". It's a quick fix, not a pain free one though- those injections are no joke. The needle is long and skinny and goes in your wrist, towards your palm and pokes you in a nerve- fills up with cortizone and then you are done. Except then there's the achy feeling for about 24 hours... then you're done but for only three months. It wears off and if you are still pregnant after the shot wears off, you go back for more- so that's what I did. But here I am, typing again. Carpal tunnel pain is no joke, it is life altering.
