March 31st - Another Appt and Names

So we are getting used to the idea of having 3 little girls and are excited about how good everyone is doing so far. I went to the doctor yesterday and I am measuring like I am 28 weeks pregnant even though I am only 18. He said I will just 'blow up' from here out, lol great technical terminology there.


This was a new doctor we saw and we really liked him he had a great personality unlike others we have seen and he was upbeat. The nurse spent 20 minutes at the beginning of our visit trying to get all of the heartbeats. She was able to pinpoint baby A with no problems and the heartbeat was 152. Baby B and C were very difficult they seemed to be very close to each other, she tried several times and always got 144 for the heartbeat yet she could not be sure which it was B or C. Finally the doctor came in giggling, he could hear her trying from the hallway. He took a shot at it and he said he could hear the distinct heartbeats of 2 babies but he couldn't tell them apart enough to get a reading. They were not concerned because they could hear them very well, they just couldn't separate them enough to get a good count.

My biggest compliant for the doctor this time was the lower back pain I get every day. I have trouble sitting in my chair at work for extended amounts of time and sometimes retreat to the floor at work to get some temporary relief. The doctor is going to refer me to a physical therapist in hopes that they can give me some exercises to help with the pain and tension.

We are all clear to travel for Easter and then for the week after to Boston to see Scott's family one more time. We are excited about our trip and hope that maybe I will be too big for economy class and must be put in 1st class (lol, we are hoping).

Scott and I have tossed around a lot of names over the past week or so but we have finally decided on names for the girls. It is hard to find 3 names that we both agree on and sound good together. We are almost finished with middle names also but you'll have to wait a little longer to find out those, in no particular order the names are:

Emma
Olivia
Savannah

Having names makes this seem that much more real to us, we are getting attached to our little girls very fast.
