Third trimester!

We have crossed over into the long wait until the end of our lives as we know it. I am scared and excited. I am worried about how much I want it to not be 12 weeks. Yet at the same time I know that Tiger and I really need 12 more weeks.

Lets take inventory.

* The only name my son has is Tiger. My husband still won't seriously talk about it. Okay, I guess I will name him then.

* I now sit in a room that is almost completely cleaned out of my things. (there are still a few like book shelf that I can't move, and two filing cabinets that again I can't move) Those items however, have been gone through and unnecessary items have been purged. Yet this room is still full of shit. I was aware before that most of it wasn't mine, now my husband is. He didn't believe me. I have almost emptied one of the ones in the basement and I have reorganized the other. I have quite a few boxes ready for a garage sale that my friends MIL is having this weekend. Now I just have to get the crap over there in the next two days around work and an appointment.

* I did get my husband to go with me and register at Tar.get yesterday. He goes a little nuts when he gets that gun in his hand. I was comparing two different products and when I turned around he had scanned like 20 things. How many bibs do we need?? Again when I was actually shopping for a curtain rod I heard the gun going off in the distance and he had a sheepish grin on his face. I had to do some deleting on line when I got home after that. He did come up with explanations as to how each of those items could be applied toward the baby. I thought it was pretty creative.

* I am still nauseated almost every damn morning. It is usually better by 8 or 9 on the mornings when I get up by 0530, but not always. I am still am vomiting 2-3 times a week. It is getting really hard to do. It is quite uncomfortable. I really hoped this would be gone but at some point it started getting worse again.

* I am currently undecided on what I am going to do about daycare. I'm not yet changing my plans. I tried to reach my friend last night to ask her the scoop but I couldn't reach her. I still have to find another provider anyway since we are on the waiting list. I have been asking around and have a few names of private providers right now to call. I am mixed about that.

* We still haven't purchased critical items like a car seat or crib, etc. Although we know when we are going to be ordering each of these items.

* I have only slight movements back in my face and it is still inconsistent. It is also very painful. I now get a lot of cramping and spasming. The muscles are extremely tight and it is now more difficult to talk than it was at first. Again, I am told that this is good muscle activity and I just have to wait. Yet all the doctors I work around and that take care of me seem disappointed that I haven't made more progress yet. At this point, I think I would rather have them all touch my belly than ask me to smile at them. I really hate flunking that test.

There is more, I'm sure but that is enough for now right?
