Well, the verdict is in:
It's a girl!
Yeah, so, I'm not going to lie. When the announcement of 'girl' came through, I felt a little bummed out. I guess it's human nature to get yourself worked up over something you're really hopeful of and feel a little disappointment.
Don't get me wrong, this little girl is going to be just as loved/spoiled/rotten as Payton is - I was just really, really hoping for a little boy.
However, all was made quickly better when my doc told me everything was absolutely healthy.
Not to mention the fact I haven't seen my doc since Payt was born, and he welcomed me back with open arms, a few good jokes at my last pregnancy's expense and called me 'old buddy'.
Plus, he's super good looking.
:)
There's just something about Dr. F that I absolutely love. He is the way a doctor should be. He comes so highly recommended and I wish everyone had a chance to have their vaginas inspected by him. My vagina has never been in better hands.
Literally haha.
So with a new baby comes a new name. We're definitely set on Finley, but the middle name is hard to come across. I understand that basically everyone I know has kids and crossing a middle name is going to probably be something that has to be done, but I don't want to feel like a thief.
I love Finley Jaide, Finley Paige, Finley Madison and Finley Madelyn.
But for each of those middle names, I know at LEAST 2 little girls with them. (Except Madelyn, in which I only know 1 little girl with that middle name.)
The search continues, but I'm sure we'll settle on 1 of those names. Josh and I are super drawn to Jaide and Madison. So we'll see.
So Finley (how cute is that? love calling her by name!) was suuuuuuper stubborn at the ultrasound. The tech had about 30 minutes with us just because she refused to turn around. She would bounce all over that fluid filled floating pillow she was in and just not do anything. She wouldn't give us a face shot, wouldn't flip back around and wouldn't do a damn thing anyone wanted her to do.
Except show her vagina.
If this is any inkling into what she's going to be like when she's here, Josh better be scared LOL.
When the tech announced it was a girl, Josh's face was terrified. I could see a hint of being bummed, but it was quickly replaced with fear. He knows what he's in for. Payton already bosses him and he knows it's going to be twice the trouble now.
I also wanted to discuss my bowels with you.
Random.
I just want you all to know exactly how constipated I've been. This will really put a shock factor in (especially for Brooke who knows how the cookie crumbles after this scenario).
I ate Chinese today. A lot of Chinese at that. Besides the Chinese waitress sitting next to us slurping her fish head soup, everything else was beautiful.
Now when I eat Chinese, I have exactly 3 minutes to get to my house or 1 minute to get to JC Penneys. I can always tell by the dropping sensation which it's going to be, but it NEVER exceeds 3 minutes before I'm shitting my pants.
And lots of shitting.
I haven't shit in 2 days, and after I ate Chinese today, I walked around JC Penneys, went to Walmart and took a nap.
I ate Chinese at 2pm. It's 1:09am right now and I have still yet to shit.
My back is really hurting every night and I know it's because I need to poop. So I go to strain for awhile, only to produce a piece of brown shredded cheese or a deer pellet. It's ridiculous. I am known for my bowels. Josh is amazed. His words?
"I don't know how you can go from shitting 14 times a day to 4 times in 14 days."
I guess I need to heavy up on the pruce juice because once I go, it's going to be terrifying.
I'll get the chills, start sweating, have horrible stomach pains and just go to town.
And I may even post a picture.
;)
