What prego woman doesn't love talking about being prego? I definitely am no exception. A while back I started to realize however that being pregnant for the second time is so different from the first. When I was pregnant with Emmett I took a picture of my growing belly at least once a month (I'm not an every weeker). Now I am 34 weeks along and I have taken a total of 2 for this babe. They were selfies. For some reason I feel like selfies are a cheap version of what a good picture could be. Here I am at 20 weeks and then again at 32 weeks.
So if I keep doing less the poor 3rd kid is gonna have nothing ha! poor guy.
Another difference is that my body is so not as strong as it was with the first. This is completely my fault for not working it like it needed in between having babes but still...I am feeling it this time around all the aches and pains and such when with the first I didn't really have any issues and couldn't figure out why everyone thought being prego was so hard haha oh how the times have changed. It's still completely worth it, just not as easy.
The awesome things about this pregnancy are that I could feel this kid moving so much earlier than I could with my first. Feeling them move is what makes being prego amazing. I also am not working out of the house so when Em sleeps I get to sleep! ahhh heaven.
Em is starting to point out babies when we go out. Everytime he hears a kid cry he looks at me and asks 'baby?'. I am so excited for him to have a brother to play with. He for sure will be jealous at first when the babe is going to take up a lot of mommy and daddy's attention but I think he'll get over it fairly quick.
Anyway I'm so stinkin excited for June.


Awe, you look so great! June! That's so soon (even though it feels forever away right now... but my count down is on until October. Jealous? Ha ha!)
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how different things are the second time around! I hope I'm just as laid back when the baby is born instead of being CRAZY the way I was with Mia after she was born! The newborn phase is no joke!
