How is everyone feeling?

Well April mommies & daddies we are almost there!  How is everyone feeling?  I am doing great besides I am in the nesting phase and have been going a little nuts trying to make sure everything is ready.  I've got the nursery complete- it is so cute, and all her clothes, diapers, etc....  only thing I still need to get is a breast pump- but before I spend $300 on one I think I am going to make sure everything is going fine with breast-feeding first (plus I don't want to bottle feed for the 1st 4-6 weeks).  The biggest problem I am having is coming up with a name for her- she is due April 9th.  Maybe you guys can help here are some names I've been considering, please give me feedback and tell me which you like best! :

Grace Helen
Genevieve (nickname Evie) Grace
Mirabel Helene
Juliana Faith
Uliana (great grandmothers name) Grace
Helen Grace

Thanks everyone and I hope this email finds everyone healthy and happy! <3

I'm exhausted too- but kind of getting used to no sleep!  I'm up every hour peeing or just unable to get comfortable.  I'm 36 1/2 weeks- Only 3 1/2 weeks to go- YIKES!!!  Going through the nesting stage wanting to make sure everything is ready, washed, cleaned, etc...  Only thing I haven't done yet is pack my hospital bag- for some reason I think that will jinks me and I'll go early, lol.  I really like Uliana also but daddy does not....  (he is much more traditional- he likes the name Caroline) Have you decided on a name yet?  Any problems with your pregnancy?  My iron has been low- checked again last week after taking iron pills on top of prenatal and my iron was still at 9.5.  My midwife is a little concerned but other than that this pregnancy has been a breeze!

Best of luck to you & thanks for responding!!!

Exhausted over here! Only six more weeks! Yay! Annnnd I really like Uliana! I think it is perfect.   Genevieve Elise is on our list, so naturally I like that name too.  Personally not a fan of grace only bc all of the Graces I have ever known have been wretched! Lol (I used to teach for years, soooo lots of names stick... I.e. the Addison s were always spoiled.  The JJs were always mischevious, Giadas were sweet but strongwilled, Isabelle/Isabella/Bella sneaky, Erics were serious, etc...)

haha, so for me those names just make me expect a certain kid.  All the names we picked out are kids names that I never taught.  Except one, Carter... I taught one Carter but I really like the name. Lol.

how are you feeling?
