Facts

about the business of growing this baby.



Due date: June 17th, though we're measuring about one week early -- June 11th.
Doctors: My midwives Tracy and Nicole as doula, with Dr. Cox (hopefully) over a VBAC delivery.

---------------

With this, my second pregnancy, I've been way more sick and way more tired.

If I don't get at least one nap a day, the 'pregnant troll' comes out, as Jared would say.

I laid on the couch for approximately three months last fall. Luckily, as it turns out, Morgan babsits himself quite well.

Morgan thinks it's funny when I throw up. He also thinks its a bonus to get to flush the toilet for me. Silverlinings, I suppose.

Sciatic nerve pain is for sissies.

Growing up, I always told my mom I would never have girls.

Last summer, I was addicted to Costa Vida. Ever since I've been pregnant, if I even drive by the dang place, I'm sick.

When Morgan says 'baby brova' it just about melts my heart.

Things I need a lot:
Homemade banana bread by the loaf, with Tillamook butter, please. McDonald's strawberry banana fruit smoothies. Grapefruit. Strawberry poptarts. Peanut Butter M&Ms. Taco Bell nachos. Wendy's cheeseburgers. Homemade chicken salad sandwiches. Spagetti. Frozen hashbrowns.  

Hopes for the next few months:
Helping Morg say goodbye to his beloved passey and getting him sleeping in his big-boy bed.
Staying on track to gain the same amount of weight I did with Morgan.
A successful VBAC delivery. (Fingers crossed!)

  2. What a great photo of your tummy. :) I always thought all pregnancies with boys would feel the same — mine were totally different too. Makes me wonder what it would be like if I ever got a girl.
