Wrapping up the 18th week!

It is no secret. I suck at blogging! Life is so crazy busy and all the times that I feel like I have time to sit and write, there are a hundred more things that could be getting done! But I am cuddling my boy as he is going down for a nap and I thought I would jot down a few words about the last few weeks of pregnancy!! 

I am well into the second trimester and I am SO glad morning sickness is gone and the tiredness has eased up emensly! I am just starting to feel uncomfortable and "heavy" my belly is not very easily hidden anymore and everyone knows er are expecting!! And to make the news even more exciting we are having a GIRL!!' 

 

We are so thrilled!! I would be lying though if I didn't admit that I am terrified! I don't know how to do girl! Haha but I didn't know how to do baby before Cru so I am sure I will get the hang of it! 

Well Cru is asleep so I am going to bust through these questions so I can move onto my next project! 

How far along?

Today I am 18w 5d

Totally weight gain?

Last time I checked which was a few days ago I was up 5lbs from pre-pregnancy! 

Maternity clothes?? 

Oh yes. Pants and lots of t-shirts! I am all about the comfort! 

Stretch marks? 

Only new ones on my chest! 😳

Sleep? 

It is starting to get more and more difficult to become comfortable. But I still am sleeping so I can't complain! 

Best moment this week? 

In regards to pregnancy, I am starting to feel her move more and more every day! I am loving it! In regards to life, josh and I have gone through some stuff that has made us closer as partners in life than anything has. He is my rock and I am

Still in, but it is getting shallower and shallower! 

Wedding ring on or off? 

I start with it on but by the end of the day it is pretty tight!

Pregnancy #2 12 weeks!

Well I decided to blog my pregnancy! Not because I want everyone to know everything, but more of a personal journal! Cuz let's be real.. Not many read this! Ha 

Well I've finally made it to 12 weeks! 12 Weeks 3 Days to be exact! Not many know but we have had two miscarriages since we've had Cru so we have kept things VERY quiet! We just barley announced to family! We have been very nervous about telling people but we are feeling more at ease as each day passes! 

I have seen a few cool pregnancy blogs where these mamas answer the same questions every week and I really liked the idea so I decided to borrow it! Here it goes!! 

Here I am! 12 weeks and I feel ginormous! This picture was taken yesterday at 12w2d and my belly just did not want to hide anymore! But it could be due to a big breakfast as well! Needless to say it is getting harder and harder to hide the bump! I have poped way earlier than I did with Cru!!

How far along? Today May 1st 2014, I am 12w3d! Yay!!

Totally weight gain? I have actually lost weight. Down 3 or 4 pounds from pre-pregnancy. Which I kinda expected... I did with Cru too! 

Maternity clothes?? I actually busted out some maternity jeans yesterday and was so glad I did! I think I was in denial about how tight my other jeans were getting! Besides that I am in sweats most  the time while I am home!

Stretch marks? No new ones, just pre-existing from our Cru boy! 

Sleep?  It's actually getting better my first few weeks were awful! Lots and lots of pillows! Thank heavens for a king size bed! 

Best moment this week? Monday we had an ultrasound and everything looked great and my cervix was nice and long! Which was a huge relief!

Miss anything? Bike rides and my energy! Being able to walk up a set of stairs without huffing for breath!! 

Movement? Not sure... I could have sworn I felt some fluttering yesterday, but it could have been gas through my intestines too. Who knows!! 

Food Cravings? Taqureia La Costa!! Shredded beef, bean, cheese and sour cream burrito! Mmmm Great... Now I need one!

Anything makes me sick or queasy? TMI?? But Josh's farts! Yuck! And chicken... No bueno! 

Gender? ?? Not sure! Both Grandmas think girl! I change on the hour!! 

Labour Signs? Nope! 

Symptoms? Tired, but it's getting better. MOODY!! Sorry Josh!  And achey! Constipation is bad, which I have never delt with! So heaven help me! 

Belly button in or out? Definitely in still!

Wedding ring on or off? On, when I go out! 

Happy or moody? Happy is one of the many moods I feel during the hour!  Yikes!! 

Looking forward to? 

My massage on Friday!! I am so very excited and it is so very needed!! 

Well that's about it for week twelve! We are ao excited and happy to be able to bring another little one into the world! Yay for baby #2!!
