E?????


Good Morning! Just a few updates. I am feeling good...having growing pains here and there and then my leg is twitching weird sometimes...but other than that, I am good. 16 weeks now and I have felt the baby a few times. They say you can feel the baby earlier in your 2nd pregnancy (and beyond) since your stomach muscles are already stretched out and thinner...great...haha

I went over to Motherhood Maternity to get fitted for a bra because my cheapy Target bra is just not cutting it. When my milk came in with Alyson, so at my biggest, I was a 42DD. I am only 4 months prego and I am a 42E! I just can't imagine what I'll be when I grow some more. On that note, I do get boob pains because of the growth and the beginning of production.

I've gained about 3 lbs. since my last post...so that's good. I hadn't been gaining anything really. I think I started at 239 and now I'm at 247. Not bad...I'm defintly not gaining at the rate I did with little Alyson! I started with her at 215 and a day before I went into the hospital, I tipped the scales at 310! I lost 45 lbs. 2 weeks after giving birth to her, but I was huge! I'm hoping that I won't gain more than another 10-15 lbs. with this baby. We'll see!

The 20 week ultrasound is March 13th..I'll probably post again then! We are excited about seeing the little pea in the pod and maybe finding out if it's a boy or another girl! Once we find out, then the shopping will begin!! I think we are having a 2nd baby shower to celebrate this baby...but nothing formal. I'd like a co-ed with kids...more like a big BBQ get together party. I think that will be fun!

Updates.....:)

Hi! It's been about a month almost since I've written my last blog. I had my 12 week appointment and everything went fine. Baby's heart beat was very strong! Today, I am in my 14th week of pregnancy. And...I keep feeling the baby kick me!!! I know that sounds crazy...but they told me that you can feel the baby earlier than your 1st pregnancy and I swear, after the first one which I thought maybe was gas...it is definetly a little *kick*!!! :) I'm wearing prego clothes now...I haven't taken a picture in awhile. I will soon!

So, Alyson said the cutest thing yesterday.
Alyson: "Mama, your belly getting big!"
Angel: "Yes, sweetie...mama has a baby growing inside her belly"
Alyson: "My brother or sister!!"
SO CUTE! She's really starting to catch on to what is happening with my body.

Work is fine. I'm frustrated right now because I'm not being able to do my own job. I'm still pulled in the branch quite a bit lately and I still have demands with my own work. I have a meeting this morning and I'm not ready for it. I told her yesterday that I doubt I will be ready. I am only one person and can only do what I can do. I am really good at multitasking and being efficient, but lately it's kickin' my bootie!

School.....I haven't done anything with this new semester. I started reading my book in one class...but that's it. I have no idea what I'm going to do about this semester. I'm thinking of dropping all together. By the time I get Alyson to bed, I am dog-tired! I pass out on the couch pretty quickly. Last night, I fell asleep at 7:45. Maybe this weekend (3 day weekend) I can catch up.

That's it for now! I'll post more pictures soon!!
