With Char I kept updates on my pregnancy, and hope to do the same this time around. I love going back and seeing all the things that were going on. It will also be fun to see the comparison.
Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 12 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss: About 4-5 pounds...feels like more this time around!
Maternity Clothes: None yet...but I am in my "fat jeans"...and sweats.
Sleep: I wake up a lot now that I am pregnant again. And I am having crazy dreams every night.
Best Moment this week: Telling everyone the big news!
Gender: Don't know yet, still too early. But I say boy.
Movement: Not yet, but I CANNOT WAIT til I feel little pokes. That was my favorite part last time..almost reassuring.
Food Cravings: Cereal, fresh fruit, Jack N the Box tacos (same as with Char). New food cravings: pizza!
Food Aversions: Depends on the day-and the smell. But red meat is sounding worse and worse these days (same as with Char). Mexican food (just typing it makes me want to gag) Earlier I didn't really want anything sweet...but that has changed :)
How's Mama? I'm doing good. I get little emotional, crazy spurts here and there. And I feel exhausted! (although the last couple days I have been feeling a little more energetic). I have felt a lot more nauseous this time around. With Char I would get sick at a certain time each day, but once I ate I was fine. This time around it seems to last all day, and when I eat it gets worse! Ick. Thankfully it's not EVERY day that I feel like this, but it is most. I have noticed it starting to get a lot better this week. WOO HOO!
What I am looking forward to: EVERYTHING! Especially watching Char become a big sissy!
How is Char doing: I added this one to keep myself updated with how Charleigh is handling everything. She is still too little to know what is happening. And my tummy is still too small for her to notice. But I did tell her that there is a baby in mommy's tummy and she gave me a funny look :) I can't wait til she can feel baby move.
