16 weeks!

How far along? 16 weeks! Due 11/10/14

Symptoms: This past week has left me feeling great! Semi tired, but Graceyn isn't sleeping too good so that could be it. Feeling fat already, uh oh! 

Total Weight gain/loss: Weighed this morning, I have gained 2 pounds.

Sleep: I wake up and turn all night. My shoulders hurt and I can't get comfortable :(

Food Cravings: Still love me some pickles! 

Best Moment this week: Just another week down!

Movement: Nothing for sure. Sometimes I think I might feel it, but not certain. I felt Graceyn around 17 weeks so I expect to feel this one soon!

Labor signs: None thank goodness!

Gender: No clue and not finding out! 

Belly button in or out: In!

What I miss:  I'm starting to transition into maternity clothes, but my bump isn't that big so I just look fat! Lol.

What I am looking forward to: Continuing a smooth pregnancy. Can't wait til November!!

Milestones: 1 more week closer to meeting our baby!

Weekly wisdom: One of my favorite scriptures, fitting for pregnancy. 

"For this child I prayed; and The Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him" 1 Samuel 1:27

Blessed.

Surprise!

It's no secret that Jarrod and I want a large family (5 kids!). It's also no secret that we are in the busiest season of our lives... I'm working full time and taking 9 college credit hours & he is a full time student. Then we have to entertain a toddler. So we said that we would start trying for baby #2 later this year. (God is humorous)

Imagine our shock when we got a positive pregnancy test while on vacation with our family! I had no reason to think I was pregnant, yet I took a test anyways. 

POSITIVE. What in the world are we going to do with a baby?

Blessed.

15 Weeks

How far along? 15 weeks! Due 11/10/14

Symptoms: Nausea and tiredness are almost gone, thank goodness! The normal aches are still here.

Total Weight gain/loss: Dr appt said I lost 4 pounds. I disagree. Scale at home says I've stayed the same. 

Sleep: Pregnancy hasn't affected my sleep, the child I have has! Graceyn gets up around 2-3 every night and comes to our bed.. We're exhausted so we don't fight this lol

Food Cravings: Still love me some pickles! 

Best Moment this week: Went to doctor and couldn't find a heartbeat so we had an ultrasound. Baby is fine - 143 heartbeat! Jarrod wasn't able to attend my first appointment so it was nice he was able to go to the ultrasound for this one!

Movement: Nothing for sure. Sometimes I think I might feel it, but not certain. I felt Graceyn around 17 weeks so I expect to feel this one soon!

Labor signs: None thank goodness! Hopefully not for 24 more weeks at least ;)

Gender: No clue and not finding out! With Graceyn, I knew she was a girl from day 1. We found out for sure at 15 weeks, so this week will be hard knowing I could find out! 

Belly button in or out: In!

What I miss: Like I said before with G I could rest when I wanted to. Now with school, work, G, family - I don't have time to rest! 

What I am looking forward to: Continuing a smooth pregnancy. Can't wait til November!!

Milestones: First trimester is over and the sickness is subsiding! 

Weekly wisdom: One of my favorite scriptures, fitting for pregnancy. 

"For this child I prayed; and The Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him" 1 Samuel 1:27

Blessed.

BIG News!!

We are excited to be adding to our family in the fall! I am almost 15 weeks and so far this pregnancy has been totally different from mine with Graceyn! I tell everyone it's not as fun when you can sleep whenever you want ;) I hope to do frequent updates so that it will serve as a reminder of this pregnancy.

Blessed.
