My first pregnancy was a journey of amazement carefully calculated into to a blog as I embraced each little change as the weeks went by. Second time around, heh.
1. Holy crap you grow sooo much faster. I swear my belly button has been sticking out since week 9 and I look about a month further along versus last time's pictures.
2. I was meticulous with my bi monthly photo shoot of the belly, I've taken one so far.
3. On the same ticket, I got my maternity clothes out at 14ish weeks, compared to 17 last time.
4. How far along are you? I am usually in a 2 week range of guessing the number, but I have to rely on the OB to give me the exact number of weeks.
5. I found out super early, at 3 weeks along. So I had to stop imbibing in adult beverages much sooner than before.
6. I felt super sick at 6 weeks, but that is all. Other than being tired, I had no other major indications of being pregnant early on, which terrified me.
7. Forbidden foods. What are they? I have been eating the heck out of lunch meat, feta cheese, and even licked a batter bowl clean the other day.
8. Coffee. I have a 18 month old to chase around, I ain't giving that up this time. ( I only drink a cup anyway, so it really isn't a big deal.)
9. Running and exercising. I ran a half marathon at 11 weeks, ran a 8:38 mile last week, still do push ups and jumping jacks. I will do all of these activities until I feel like my baby will fall out.
10. I knew that was the baby moving at 14 weeks, not just gas!
