I've been feeling pretty good this pregnancy, for which I'm extremely grateful! I feel pretty much like I did with Mateo. There are a few different feelings but I'm not sure if its because the gender is different or if its just because my body was stretched out with Mateo. I feel like I'm carrying a little lower, but maybe I just remember Mateo being in my ribs the last few months. I'm eating way more junk food this time. I went through a Hostess Cupcake phase that lasted at least 2 months. I agree it was the sweetest comeback! I also find myself having to use the restroom more frequently than I ever did with Mateo. And well, there's the weight gain that's come on a little faster this time, but part of that was expected. 6 months and 26 pounds heavier :)
I must say I was a little naïve on what being pregnant with a toddler would be like. Just a little more tired and a little more achy this round. I felt so guilty on the early days when I was so exhausted, but had a sweet little man waiting to play or go outside. Needless to say I'm thrilled that exhaustion and morning sickness didn't last longer than 3 months! All I complain about these days are hips going out or having an achy back. These are things I can handle and fortunately allow me to go out and spend these last few months with my only child.
I must give a shout out to the hubby too! He's helped out a lot when I've needed him to do things my body just can't or doesn't want to do. Seems as though this belly has gotten a bit bigger and quicker this time! And it gets in the way.
All in all, times flying and my emotions are all over the place. I'm excited to meet this active little one and slightly scared to get out of my comfort zone of 1 child....but then again I was scared of adding him and what a blessing he has been!
Any gender predictions?! Name suggestions!?
