I've said it before and I'll say it again: this pregnancy is so
different from Caitlin's. I don't know if it's because it's my second or
if it's because it's a boy, maybe both. Either way, time is moving
along so quickly that i can't believe this little baby will be here
before we know it. I am more excited and my to-do list grows everyday.
Here's a little update:
-I felt him move at about 16 weeks. Still
only small movements which i mostly feel in the morning and at night but
i love feeling him. It's so assuring and exciting at the same time.Paul felt him for the first time last night.. he's getting stronger!
-I
had a not-so-little shopping spree while we were in Texas and got some
great deals on clothes. He's pretty much set for the first year of his
life (although I'm sure that won't stop me from buying more). I'm
actually having a lot of fun buying boy clothes, much to Paul's dismay
I'm sure... as it turns out whichever gender of baby we have they are
fun to spend money on!
-We think we have decided on a name,
although Paul says he is still open to ideas. But I'm like 98% set on it so I
don't think it'll change.
-Overall I'm feeling a lot better and
starting to actually gain some weight. It was nice to not have to worry
about what to eat during the holidays and mostly just concentrate on
getting enough to eat in general. Also nice that i didn't have to cook
for myself during the holidays (that always helps). I still have some
lingering tummy aches and I swear I had Braxton Hicks contractions on
the airplane on the way home from Texas, I know it seems early but
whatever it was.. it was painful.
-On a selfish note: I'm trying to grow my hair out and thought now would be the perfect time with taking prenatals and everything and it's not happening. It's not growing fast at all! So dissapointed.
-My belly is growing bigger
everyday and I am slowly moving into the baby-belly opposed to fat-belly
stage, depending on what I'm wearing.
