Update on baby Honeydew

First off, I'm 24 weeks today. Which means viability. Which means the kiddo will likely do just fine if he were born at this point (not super duper, probably stay in the NICU, but the lungs are developed enough to survive! Yay!) I know it's a weird thing to get excited about, but it makes me feel relieved.
I saw the new OB (since I won't be delivering with my old one) and she was so nice! Sasha came with me and behaved like an angel (why couldn't she act like that at home, I wonder). She kept asking me what the dr. was doing and then listened to her little brother's heartbeat on the doppler with a giant smile on her face. It was so precious! I really can't wait for him to get here!!
See? I'm telling you she's excited!
Still no name for this kiddo (and don't even get me started on how badly I feel about it, with Sasha we had a name before we were even married!!) Going back and forth on a few alternatives, but none of them feel like our son's name, if that makes sense.  So we're working on it; hopefully we'll decide before he's born!
The next big thing is the GD test in a month, when I get to drink some lovely sugary drink and get blook drawn to make sure I'm not developing gestational diabetes. Then after that nothing too exciting for a while.
I cannot wait for March to get here!!
