Amy: Oh the peeing at night!!!  I hate it too!!  Usually twice for me also....

Now I think I'm getting sick :/  Yuck.  Sore throat.  My son's been sick and my husband also...I was hoping to escape it but I guess not....I hate not being able to take anything..

[cocacolapanda]

Erica, I'm sorry your missing your showers, but maybe you can have them (or at least one) after the baby is born.  Everyone will want to see the new little baby anyway and you'll probably feel much better!  I'm glad everyone's treating you well on bed rest!  My SIL had a shower after she had her little one and I think the guests almost had more fun because they got to see and play with the new baby.

szw2008 - Henry David isn't a bad name, Henry is a great name for a boy!

I'm almost 15 weeks and I've been getting up to pee about twice a night for at least 4 weeks now.  I hate it!  Other than that I've been sleeping pretty good, I'm still beyond exhausted so falling asleep is pretty easy for me at the moment.

[DMarie919]

Aw Erica...I'm sure it's not fun to miss your showers!  But everyone understands and is there to support you!  I'm glad you have a supportive family that can help you!  Enjoy those cookies! :)

13 weeks today and feeling very blessed.  I also feel like I've sprouted overnight almost though!  YIkes!  LOL....

Good morning ladies!  So, this weekend I was supposed to have 2 baby showers (1 surprise shower from the girls at work, and 1 my mom and sister were throwing me)..now I get none, because I can't go anywhere! I am really disliking bed rest. I totally know, it's best for the baby right now, I really don't want to have this baby prematurely, but I'm missing all the fun stuff. Showers, setting up the room, shopping..I can't even cook dinner for my family. Luckily I have the best family ever! DH has been amazing, taking DD to daycare every day, and basically running around like a lunatic. He's been cleaning, cooking (a bit), doing the grocery shopping, getting the baby's room organized, etc. Also my mom and sister have been wonderful, yesterday they cooked up a storm. Mom made enough stew to last at least a week, and she made enough meat sauce for at least 3 pasta dinners. My sister knows how much I love hummus, so she made me a giant batch, and brought some baby carrots to go with it, AND she made chocolate chip cookies! That being said, as much as I appreciate everyone's help, I just wish I could do all this myself for my family. Ok, enough b*tching...

Hope you're all doing well!

One of my friends has a friend with a son Henry.  I don't think it's bad...I think its coming back into popularity!  I think boys names are so hard!!!

Thanks for the sleeping advice..I might try the music.  Something has to work...I usually can get to sleep, but then once I wake up to pee (which has been at least twice a night) then it takes me forever to get back to sleep :(

Hey ladies. I need opinions on the name Henry David... I'm in love with it, but everyone I tell it to thinks it's just the worst name ever. I'm already stuck on it I think..... is it as bad as my friends and family say?
