14 weeks and feeling HUGE!



I don't have a picture yet but I am 14 weeks this week (14 weeks, 1 day today) and I already feel so big! I know they say the second baby pops alot sooner but this is crazy! I can still wear my regular clothes, but I have gotten out some maternity shirts so I don't stretch out my regular ones.

So far, still pretty tired but the nausea/morning sickness seems to have gotten a little better. I still need to eat something every couple of hours but it's not too bad.

Next dr. appointment is in a week and a half, next Wednesday. I will be just over 15 weeks so I am sure at the end of the appt. I will get to schedule my formal ultrasound! I can't wait to find out what we're having!


This was taken last Sunday, at 13 weeks.

Baby #2 is on it's way!

I've decided to make a new blog for baby #2, seeing as it's easier for me to do two blogs on the same site. So here we go!

We found out on June 10, 2011, that we are expecting our second child! It was sooner than I anticipated, as I hadn't been off birth control very long, but we are so excited! By now, all of our family and friends know and I am assuming they are happy for us :) Madelyn will point to my tummy and say, "baby in mommy's tummy!" She's even given my belly kisses when I wasn't feeling well.
Which is my next point. I definitely have been feeling worse with this pregnancy. Most of my "morning sickness" comes in the evening, but I am hoping that since I am 12 weeks along now, it will get better when I hit my 2nd trimester. I had heartburn with Madelyn but never this sick feeling. I try to keep something in my stomach and extra stuff at work or in the car and for the most part, it's been working, but traveling a lot lately hasn't helped.
I had my 2nd appointment on August 3, last week. The dr said everything looked good and then I got to hear my sweet baby's heartbeat! 170 beats per minute!!! Already this little one is a mover! The midwife had to find it after a few seconds as baby moved away. She found it again and then it moved again so we both got a good laugh.
Hopefully that's all for now. Looking forward to feeling better and will take belly shots later.
