Exactly 2 years ago, I started this little blog as a way to chronicle this crazy journey towards parenthood. Now, 2 years and 300 posts later, I can't even believe how different things are. I am a mom, not a mom-to-be. I am married to a father. We are 4+ months away from being parents to two children. It's incredible how life works out.
How far along?: 21 weeks, 0 days.
Total weight gain/loss: +0.5 this week, +10.5 total.
Maternity clothes?: Took a little spill in the rain this week; thankfully, I only busted up my knee a bit - but I came thisclose to ripping a hole in the only maternity jeans I have. Luckily, they're going to survive a few more weeks until the heat sticks around for good.
Sleep: Getting more and more uncomfortable. And the little one has decided to practice her aerobic exercises in my belly around 11:00 each night = not helpful.
Movement: So much, so often. Baby Reeder is a squirmer :)
Food/Cravings: No real cravings, but I do go in waves of super-hard-to-satisfy hunger.
Gender: I don't even care, baby is 100% healthy!
New w/pregnancy #2: Going the TMI route again, so beware. I started my last pregnancy about 25 lbs heavier than this one; I didn't even start gaining weight last time until about this point in the pregnancy. The weight I'm gaining this time seems to be more noticeable (to me, at least)...especially in one particular place. Well, make that two. The Girls kinda deflated with all my post-baby weight loss, but they are making a comeback! Here's the extra-TMI part: they are getting...um...heavy.
What I miss: Sleeping comfortably.
What I am looking forward to: Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dogs :) (I promise this obsession is going to end soon....promise.)
Best moment this week: Without a doubt, it was seeing my favorite little fetus at the ultrasound! AND finding out the munchkin is growing so perfectly. Best news of the year :)
Weekly Wisdom: I just don't know.
Milestones: Baby Reeder is the length of a banana!
