Already 1/3 of the way done with pregnancy #2! It wasn't as easy of a first trimester as my first pregnancy; I was a more nauseous, had some vomiting, was exhausted all the time, and probably a little crankier. Travis and I had planned on having another baby, just wasn't sure when. After our fiasco in Disneyland with no sleep for 4 days, we were driving to Palm Springs and both said, "We are NEVER having another kid!" Low and behold the next afternoon I had 3 positive pregnancy tests. But we are SO excited to add to our family now that we are back to a normal sleep routine that will surely be interrupted again in about 6 months. Rilynn was born to be a big sister. She's nurturing, affectionate, and extremely bossy. Our official due date is October 19, however since I had a c-section with Rilynn, I am choosing to have another one this go around, so that will be scheduled around a week before. I am very excited for an October baby! I love the beginning of fall in Oregon. My good friend from high school, Stephanie, is due with her first baby just days before me. So excited to share this time with her and raise our kids together.
Stats:
Weight gain: 1 lb but several inches. It took me a while to show with Rilynn, but I swear I was showing instantly with BB2... Or maybe that was all the treats in Disneyland.
Cravings: fruit
Gender prediction: girl! We are hoping to find out in about 2 weeks, but my guess is girl.
Symptoms: are all gone. No more nausea, vomiting, or exhaustion.
Most excited: to find out the gender
Left second pregnancy, right pregnant with Rilynn
