Baby Thomson Kicking

Baby Girl Thomson starting kicking last night. I can't decide if it was because I haven't been eating anything so she was hungry or it was because I was watching Tori Spelling go through her C-section with Baby Stella and it was her was of telling me, "Hey...this is about to happen to you!" Either way...she was kicking away for only a bit and Paul got to feel it too! What a great feeling!!

Naming of Baby Girl Thomson

Who ever thought that naming a child would be SO difficult!! Paul is Mr. Opininated when it comes to everything about his unborn daughter which is why we don't even have a name yet. I have added a poll so we could see which one most people like. (This does not mean the one with the most votes wins...just a fun idea to spruce up my blog that I always promise I will be better at.) We like them all, some more than others but we would like to see what you vote on.....

It's a girl!!!!

We finally found out that we are having a baby girl!!! Wahoo. We are so excited and so thrilled to await the arrival of Baby Girl Thomson. (Who still doesn't have a name but we are still working on it.) Here are two ultrasound pictures..one to confirm it's a girl (above) and one that was cute (below).

16 Weeks Along....

We went to the doctor yesterday for a 16 week check up. They listened to the heartbeat and it was 157 beats a minute. Still above the 140 beats so according to that myth...it's a girl.
I have had lots of signs for boy though. Paul finally let me buy some draino crystals and so we took them home to only find out that we are BOTH having boys. According to the "myth" you spit in draino crystals and if it pops and fizzes then it's a boy. And that's exactly what it did when Paul and I BOTH spit in it! So much for that theory!
I have also had one dream regarding what my child will be and it was a boy. Everyone in the room in the dream said "Are you sure?" "Did you double check?" Can we all tell what my family wants me to have?
July 10th is the big day for the ultrasound so it will be settled for once and for all and mayeb Paul and I can concentrate on picking a name! Hopefully the baby is positioned right so we can see! Keep you all posted.....

Myth #2

A needle on a thread held over your belly moves in circles, so you will have a boy.

So we tried this one last week with a ring on the thread and it just kept going in circles. So it's going to be a BOY! Five more weeks till we find out for sure but we'll keep testing!

Myth #1

Your baby's heart rate is 140 or more beats per minute, so it's a girl.

So this one says it's a girl!! The two times that they have heard the heart beat, it has been over 140 beats per minute! One down...many more to test!

12 Week Doctor Visit

Went to the doctors on Friday and was there for about 5 minutes. Short and sweet visit. All he did was listen to the heart beat and it was 164 beats per minute.
According to my sister, I don't blog enough so I am going to test all the myths of "Is it a boy or is it a girl?" That should keep my blog interesting for the next 6 weeks until I actually find out. The votes are kinda close so we'll see!
