Almost to the 1/2 way point

Due to the job change, trip to Colorado, and what I refer to as "medical drama" (meaning myself this time)I honestly haven't had a lot of time to think about the pregnancy. For the past 3 months I've been plagued by a nasty bladder/kidney infection that took a while to get rid of. I'm not a stranger to them in pregnancy, but damn-this last one was "bad" in the words of my midwife. There's really no way to describe how I've felt other than uncomfortable, and I can't really pair my intense nausea w/ the pg or the infection. It has consumed me to the point where I haven't had a lot of energy to think about anything other than what's on my plate for the day. I just recently got a good report back, and now I just keep my fingers crossed that we can keep them away from here on out-or at least catch them early. I know I'm feeling better though cause I finally got the ambition to walk 3 miles, and go workout the other day. I'm slowly building myself back up-cause I had been working out pretty regularly until the 6 week marker when it all just seemed to hit me.

Most people that know me, know I'm not one to share information-unless you ask. I don't like to whine when I'm not feeling well, and I don't like to talk to people about things they may not really care about. So don't take my not talking about the pg as not caring; I just prefer to keep things to myself unless people feel inclined to ask.

I've felt the baby move, yes the joys of having multiple pg's gives me that liberty of knowing those feelings early on. It's exciting to know these will be the last baby kicks I'll ever feel again.

We have our ultrasound in 3 weeks, no we won't find out what we're having; we found out w/ Alex mostly by Jason's choice and not w/ Laura by my choice-we both preferred the surprise. Everyone asks "what we want?", um a healthy baby is all we're really looking for.

Do we have a name picked out? A few, but we typically don't share that info until the baby is born. I don't know, call it superstitious-or boring, but there are few things in life that only 1 or 2 people know-Jason and I cherish the months leading up to the birth, and what is all unveiled that day.
