Check-in (10 weeks)

How far along? 10 weeks
Weight gain/loss: +1 pound total
Maternity clothes? No, although my "fat pants" are starting to be tight. I took out a pair of work pants from after I had Tommy that have an elastic waist and I'm wearing them about 3 times each week...

Sleep? Needing a lot. I'm very tired. 

Symptoms? Very tired, very vivid dreams, nauseated all day, food aversions to most everything, thirsty but only for lemonade, getting light-headed if I don't eat every couple of hours, getting light-headed when lifting my arms over my head like in the shower or drying my hair, big bloat belly in the evenings. Basically, I'm still kind of miserable...
Best moment this past week? I went to my first OB appointment! I had a quick ultrasound and everything looked great :) My doctor gave me an EDD of 8/19 so I'm a day ahead of where I thought I was. We also told our parents over the course of the past week. 

Food cravings: I had a random craving for egg rolls, fried rice, and a lime slushie. I got the egg rolls and fried rice but couldn't find a lime slushie. Target had a cherry Icee and that hit the spot!
Sex: We will be finding out, this week I'm thinking its a boy. I've had a few dreams where it's a boy lately.
Belly button in or out? In
Movement: Only gas...
What I miss? Not having morning sickness!
What I'm looking forward to this week: Getting closer to the second trimester!
Milestones: Heartbeat may be detected via a doppler!

Best moment this past week? Starting to think about making room for baby #2.

Week 8 check-in from first pregnancy

Hello there!

So we have some news...Tommy's gonna be a big brother! Now this blog is not followed by anyone I know in real life so I'm gonna trust you to keep it a secret!

I tested positive on December 8 and believe I'm due August 20. My first OB appointment isn't until 1/10 so I'm basing this off of the first day of my last period.

When I was pregnant with Tommy I did a weekly check-in and I'm going to try to do the same this time around. Judging by my lack of posts for the last 4 months, I'm not super confident. Work has been CRAZY busy this year and Tommy is RUNNING around our house and getting into everything. Well here we go!

How far along? 7 weeks 0 days
Weight gain/loss: -2 pounds. I'm happy to say that I'm 14lbs below where I was when I found out I was pregnant with Tommy :)
Maternity clothes? Not yet
Sleep? I'm very tired. It's not as easy to get the extra sleep this time around.
Best moment this past week? Being on vacation from work.
Food cravings: Carbs
Sex: We will be finding out, not sure yet.
Belly button in or out? In
Movement: None yet.
What I miss? Not having anxiety :/ I've been having a lot of anxiety about becoming parents again and being able to handle it all.
What I'm looking forward to this week: Going back to work and getting back into my routine.
Milestones: Our little one's fingers and toes are beginning to form!
