Next week will be the start of our 3rd trimester. This pregnancy is seriously flying by.
BW2 Quick Facts:
Pounds Gained: Enough ;-) I believe I am at about 15 pounds right now
Food Cravings: Bakery items (like cake and pie) which I don't really like normally. This time around I don't have any strong aversions to foods (with Owen I couldn't stand meat especially chicken)
Side Effects: "mom" brain is back. I seem to have problem finding words sometimes. Hip pain that can be a hassle. The pain happens after I am actively cleaning or lifting a lot and then I rest. I sometimes have a hard time walking after that......hopefully this gets better. Heartburn....I was just telling my mother-in-law, Paula that I hadn't had any heartburn and wouldn't you know it kicked in with a vengence late last week (another baby with a massive amount of hair?)
Sleep?: As long as I don't have heartburn I seem to be sleeping okay (and if Ethan isn't snoring....sorry honey I outed you!). I don't have to get up and use the bathroom in the middle of the night like with Owen, however maybe this is coming? I also sleep well if BW2 stays calm.
Different Pregnancy!
This pregnancy has been so much different when compared to Owen.
~Morning sickness didn't last as long and wasn't as severe
~WAY more comfortable....I think my body just knows what to do now and doesn't fight the growing
~I am so much more calm
~BW2 is one active lil babe! He/She is constantly kicking especially at night. The kicks/wiggles are a lot stronger too. This has been fun and Ethan and I just laugh.
~I seem to be carrying BW2 more "out" and not as high as with Owen. I think this is why I don't seem to have problems with going to the bathroom at night, but I have the hip pain.
No belly pic, I will upload one soon though.
