#2

Last week I finally got to announce that I'm expecting baby #2.  So many things have been different this time around I was so happy to go public with the news because it was getting hard to hide it anymore.  When I was pregnant with Mia I was never sick, I don't even think I ever felt nauseous, this time around was the opposite.  I was nauseous all the time, couldn't keep anything down and spent most of the time in the bathroom.  I didn't tell anyone I was pregnant with Mia until I was about 14 weeks pregnant when I was just starting to show a bit.  This time I feel like I started showing right away and I was running out of baggy clothes!  I have read that after your first pregnancy your body kicks into pregnancy mode faster and you can show a lot sooner, I proved that point well!

Everything is so new the first time around.  When I had my first ultra sound with Mia we were oohhing and ahhing over everything it was just so exciting.  This time it was like, ok everything looks good there's just one in there right? Great thanks and that was it.  Already I'm giving this baby the shaft just because I've been through this before.  I want to make sure this baby is just as exciting as being pregnant the first time.  I made Mia a scrap book about my pregnancy with her and wrote her letters, I have to make sure I do the same this time around or this baby is on it's way to therapy wondering why mommy loved Mia more.  Making the scrap book will be much cheaper!
