However, as the fibromyalgia has gotten worse, my uterus has gotten lower after 13 pregnancies, and my pelvic bones decide that getting ready for labor is something that needs to happen around 15 weeks instead of 35 weeks... I really do need a pregnancy pillow because propping 4 pillows around me that still don't give me the support I need isn't working. {I NEED SOME SLEEP!} :) I used a body pillow with Jacob and that worked okay, I had a regular body pillow with Paige too... but I remember it not being enough and saying "if this ever happens again, I'm buying a pregnancy pillow"... lol 2. I ended up using a photo Mary Kate Olsen (it might have been Ashley - I have no idea) to show the hair stylist. I love my new 'do. It's a more layered version of the cut I usually get, with some side swept bangs... photos to be taken on a day that I spend time with the flat iron! As for color - I'm going to continue doing it myself with a temporary color, and I'm going super dark brown next time... maybe in the next couple of days. 3. Thanks for all the name suggestions!!! Some of those suggested are already on our list. Matthew and Andrea - just because this is #7, doesn't mean we want to just 'settle' for whatever. ;) I am #7, and am still so super glad that dad didn't let mom name me Phillippa!!!!! :) 1. pregnancy pillows – I didn’t need one with the first 4 babies, as an extra pillow worked fine.

I just googled it to look at them, and I still don't get it. I mean, there would be no way I could sleep with something like that in between my thighs. Yes, I snickered as I tried to think of some other way to say that. I guess being an Amazon has another pregnancy advantage? I just don't remember being uncomfortable trying to sleep. 2. Yeah. Found one. LOL http://www.virginmedia.com/images/hair_bowie-431x300.jpg Yes, you could pull that off. ;) 3. Fair enough. We really don't joke about being pregnant, even though Angelique doesn't abide by that rule when she comments on my fb statuses. But anyway, I vote for Charmaine's suggestion of Septema. :) 1.

That's seven in Latin. :D Considering how you already used Sophia for Paige's middle name which is Greek word for wisdom, then you might like Alathia which is Greek word for truth. I wanted to look up what seven was in Latin and noticed Alathia on my character list with other Latin/Greek words that could be turned into names. I forgot to include another name: Septema.

I didn't know there was even a such thing! 2. You have to post pictures of your new hairdo. :) 3. Hmm...I kept thinking of Thora because I kept remembering how Uncle Thor always bugged everyone who is pregnant with a baby to name it after him. lol. You could always look at your family tree to see if there are any names that catches your fancy. Are there any characters you love from literature? Mine is Elizabeth "Lizzy" Bennett and Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Flower names such as Rose, Lily, Iris, Violet, etc? I always wanted to have a daughter named Rose some day. :) Oh, hey, you could name her Arwen! Or if you are a fan of Star Wars name her Leia. :) I don't really know what is your naming styles, so I'm just offering many name suggestions. :) Are you trying to come up with a name that don't end in a -y? Just wondering... 1. I didn’t know there was even a such thing!
