We are pregnant with our second child! I did not expect to get pregnant on the first try! If you can really call it trying. Wow, can this really by happening? My husband and I had our two year anniversary on Sunday. It was on our anniversary that I took the home pregnancy test and was very surprised by the positive result. I got light headed and started shaking. I was excited and nervous. Saturday I had been feeling nauseated, dizzy with a headache, and had been having mild cramping for a few days. Since I had been feeling a little 'off' I had realized it was possible, but I really thought that maybe I was just coming down with an illness...

I am nervous that I am once again not in as good of shape as I would like to be. I had been running 2-3x/week but had stopped about a month and a half before i found out I am pregnant. I exercised that very night in the living room and went running on Monday! I am planning to run as long as possible through this pregnancy and walk when I get too uncomfortable. I gained 42 pounds with my last pregnancy. I lost all but a couple pounds of that weight, but it was slower to come off than I would like. I also feel weak and flabby. I have learned in my classes that a fit woman that continues to exercise thoughout her pregnancy and afterwards takes only about 9 weeks to lose the weight while it takes a sedentary woman 9 months to drop the weight gained. I hope I can keep myself motivated this time around!!! I quit walking around 7 months last time. My goal is to gain 25-30 pounds with this pregnancy. I just fit back into my normal clothes! Darn! But here we go again!

I will be graduating with my BS degree in Exercise Science and a minor in Chemistry this December. My husband is also graduating with the same degree (we met in class).

Just since we are all pregnant or TTC or mothers I may make comments that otherwise might be considered too open.

Though I have complained about the adversities of pregnancy (I did NOT enjoy it last time), I feel great about having another child! Kayley, now 11 months, has enriched our lives. She brings unexpected joy to my personal life, my marriage, and also happiness and unity to our extended family on both sides! She is amazing. She has the best sense of humor (she is hilarious and loves to make us laugh).

Amani's personality was starting to change about a week ago for the worse!!! lol she started to scream all the time she was acting very spoiled like. She always wants something in her mouth like a growup I went out to eat one day just me and her and she just kept on! she would scream and i would have to put something in her mouth and she would stop and we kept going through this , i was at mexican restuarant so finally i took a tortilla rolled it up and gave it to her because people kept looking at us and she stopped she started to act like she was really eating it! putting it in her mouth acting like she actually took a bite then she even made chewing movements!!!! very funny. well finally today i started giving her baby food in the morning and can you beleive it I think my poor baby has been starving to death... she ate the food and slept from 11am to 5pm!!!!! last week i could not get her to take one nap at all!!! she has been eating baby food but only during dinner so i guess my baby is growing up she need to eat breakfast too!!!! i feel bad!!! how long was my poor baby starving !!!! she is in love with food!!! if we are eating and she is close to food she snatches it so fast! and she wants what ever we eating the other day i had to give her a chicken drum to keep her from screaming she just sucked on it!!!! anybody elses babys trying to be grow and eat big food!! do you think she is acting like this becuase I have a baby on the way?

ps she has a tooth coming in i can feel it so maybe that is why she screams too. but i really think it is the food thing why she is a screaming baby!

well went to the doctor and they finally confirmed a pregnancy 6.3 weeks my due date june 25th this will make Amani and the baby 1 year 1 month apart they saw a heartbeat.. im happy that im pregnant even though i have a lot in store with 2 babys but i have
3 sisters who were all 1 year apart they are now 18,19, 21 and i was 10 -13 when they were born so i always had to babysit... im happy for Amani to have a new sibling and how they will be so close im 30 and will be 31 when i give birth and I am certain im done my husband offered to get the vestectomy should i get my tubes tied or allow him to do that? because i dont want anymore im happy it will be over with and i can just enjoy my children instead of feeling incomplete as a family i know with this baby we will be complete i pray first for a healthy little one but oh how i would love a boy!!!! i have 4 sisters and 2 daughters and a step son but i dont get to make choices for my stepson so its very different than birthing your own son!!!!

wish me luck if it is a boy his name will be Amir Pierson the chinese calender said boy and last time it said girl and Amani was a girl so im praying its right this time....

well today i found out more about my pregnancy, the last 2 times they saw a sac but not really a baby. they said i must be really early and we really dont know when i got pregnant because i was breastfeeding and my period was not coming so really the docs dont know how far i am, they had me do the hcg levels last week and they did double which is a good sign they were 17800 then doubled to 36000 so that is good, so i go today for an ultrasound to see if they can see a baby! so wish me luck. this will be my last pregnancy. I can not take another pregnancy. i get sick as a dog!!! and im so over it! so im trying to enjoy my pregnancy and overlook the sickness but i really just want it over, i cant even smell Amani's baby smell anymore it makes me sick so i have to hold my breath sometimes when she is close to me!!!!
