Success!



I went back to the doctor yesterday and got nothing but good news. The baby looks great. I'm measuring right which is the first time the whole pregnancy. I had been an inch or two small up til now. AND I'm only three days away from hitting 36 weeks. Another week would be good but by Saturday we are out of the woods.

I have to admit even though I've hated staying put I do feel a lot healthier. So thanks to everyone who has helped me reach this point!

Now we have to figure out a name for this little girl. I've been playing around on the website Nymbler which does a great job suggesting names based on a few you say you like. It's really fun to look at all the choices. Though I am occasionally offended by the names it offers. Who in the world names their kid Moss and why does Nymbler think I would be one of those people??

Yay! I am so excited for you. That is really great news. I have been checking your blog everyday hoping for such good news. We've been praying for you guys (and will continue to). Hope all goes well. Can't wait to hear her name!

Yay! It's too bad that you had to be on bed rest, but great that you and baby are healthy. :)

Yahoo! That's fantastic! Moral of this story- learn how to be lazier, Katy! ;) I'm SOOO happy for this news!!!

glad things are going well! Keep bakin' that baby a little longer and I'll look forward to finding out her name soon, too! :)

Hmm...Moss Meldau Cummings? It has a certain ring to it.

Wonderful! You have been in our prayers, Katy. I hope you continue to feel good and healthy for the last part that is before you - Best wishes!

P.S. - I tried out Nymbler, and had a good time -
gee, now I'm thinking I should make this all rhyme -
I'm grateful for couplets - that's what this is now -
the question is, what shall I rhyme now?

That was fun. Real point was not to rhyme, but rather note that our name tastes are different, I think. When I put in my name preferences, I got results such as "Charlotte" and "Marilyn" and "Amelia" - not Moss.

Three cheers for Katy! (Why is it three? Seems awfully arbitrary to me.) I am SO happy to hear that you and the baby are doing okay. We love you and are praying for you!

Chelsea said...

That is great news! Yay!

What a fun site. I am not remotely pregnant and I'm already dreading coming up with another name next time!

That's great! Good luck with names. That job just about killed us this time around. I'm still a little nervous for Norah's blessing day because I'm not entirely convinced that Landon won't change her name while he's up there.

Great work! Way to rest and help baby girl grow and wait...thanks to the Cummings for providing entertaining playmates (Heather)

Yes! Great news. I found Nymbler entertaining but not helpful at all. I got suggestions like April (girl) and Birch (boy.) Eh, not so much.
