26 Weeks and Backaches...

It's been a fairly quiet week. My belly seems to be getting bigger and bigger every day, and my back/pelvis is suffering. Warm compresses, warm (not hot!) baths, and lounging with my feet up seem to temporary relieve the pain, but it hurts to walk or lay on my sides for too long.

The funny thing about an ever growing baby is that we can actually see her move! I'll lay on my back and one side of my stomach will be higher than the other. Then all of a sudden the "lump" will disappear and one will appear on the other side. It's pretty cool.

We're decorating the nursery and Darren bought stick-on appliques for the walls...

We're trying to decide on a name for our little girl, but it's hard to find one that we both agree on. We have it narrowed down to four, but I have a feeling that we won't be able to pick one until we see her. Even if we did choose one, we aren't telling anyone what it is. It'll be a surprise!
