I am new to this site, and I think its really cute. I'm excited to talk to other Mommy's that have the same due date as me. I just hit the 2nd trimester. This will be my 2nd baby. I have a 20 month old son, Jayce. Right now, pregnancy is good other than the constant headaches I am having. I am so excited to find out the sex of my new baby!

August 15 - 16 weeks

I went to my appt the other day and heard the sweet lil heartbeat. I love it. My baby kept moving around so the doctor had to keep adjusting the doppler thing. My next appointment will be Sept 5. I will find out the sex and I'm like so excited!! I think about it everyday. I still haven't felt any movement.. and my headaches are a lil better.. although I still get them. I am gaining weight so much faster with this one.. i dont know if it's because it's # 2 or what. I hate it though.. I've been drinking soo much water lately. I dont want to be a giant. But i know the key to getting off that baby weight - is to breastfeed. The pounds seemed to drop off of me with my first. Who knows, It might be harder this time around. It's worth it though.

September 1 - 18 weeks

I am now 18 weeks. I feel the baby move somewhat - but not everyday. My ultrasound is on the 5th - so I'm really excited. I'm praying everything is just how it should be. I'll let you girlies know BOY or GIRL. I am having a little constipation, but other than that.. my pregnancy is going really smooth. I'm just enjoying the pregnancy.. and not rushing it. I know how fast it goes from my first.. I'm loving every minute!

October 20 - 25 weeks

I haven't updated in forever. I'm having a baby girl and she is a very active thing. Way more active in there than my boy was. My husband loves feeling her move and talking to her. My lil boy and stepdaughter also love to rub & kiss my belly. They love their baby sissy already. I have gained alot so far.. but it's okay. My next appt is November 1st. I have to do the glucose test. Yuck. I'm trying to decide when to do the 3d ultrasound done. Can't wait to see her. My pregnancy is going by a lil too fast.. I think bc I have a 1 year old and a full time job. With my son, it went so slow. I know it'll slow down towards the end though. :) We are pretty sure her name will be Natalia Grace. I am really excited about the labor part..it hurts pretty bad.. lol but it's soooo special. I love seeing that precious baby for the first time. I love the hospital stay.. It's over too soon though.. and then they are growing right before your eyes. I'm taking my time during this pregnancy & I'm loving it!!

November 8th - 28 weeks

AHH.. the pains. LOL. I feel really big.. I'm 173 now which to me is huge. I started out maybe 140. I guess I just gain alot while pregnant. It's alright as long as it comes off asap after baby is born. With my son, I started at 125 lbs and when I delivered I was 183. But.. I got back down to 130 by the time he was 7 months old.. and I think that it was because I breastfed.. totally.. for the first year. No formula what so ever. I'm so proud of that. Anyways.. at work.. I sit in the same spot for 8 or 9 hours and my upper back starts killing me! It's getting harder to sleep at night too. My hubby tells me while im complaining, lil Natalia is in my belly just stretched out and like "ahhh".. she probably feels so good, lol. Cute. I had my glucose test and haven't heard anything back so hopefully I passed. 12 weeks left to go and 10 weeks left of work! I'm counting down the days!
