6 Weeks | Our Little Sweet Pea | Baby T #2

6 Weeks

How far along: 6 weeks

How big is baby? Sweet Pea

Symptoms: Ice pick/sinus headache every day. I wake up fine & then about 2 hours later it hits & it’s miserable, exercise induced asthma (I’m fine while doing cardio but after I can’t stop coughing) it’s not as bad as last week

Maternity clothes: Not yet - although I think I already look pregnant - I’m going to blame it on bloating from the progesterone - Still going with this - hopefully I get the go ahead to stop progesterone this week but who knows if the bloat will go down (or if it’s actual baby)

Sleep: Sleep has been good this week - I haven’t had trouble falling asleep. Although I’m already

Miss anything: Being able to get my heart rate over 140 @ OTF, COFFEE, chocolate [same as last week]

Movement: Not yet

Food cravings: HEB Lime chips

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!

Have you started to show yet: I think maybe - still blaming the bloat

Labor signs: None

Belly button in or out: In

Wedding rings on or off: On

Mood? Happy!

Feeling boy or girl? Boy

Looking forward to: 3rd round of betas this week & my birthday trip to Fredericksburg! No wine this time but it’s worth it :)

Best moment of this week: Getting our second betas to confirm that my numbers look good!

4 Weeks | Our Little Poppy Seed | Baby T #2

I have a lot of blogging to catch up on here. Life has just been...well, life...crazy! Since I've last posted we've gone on a Canada/New England cruise, spent New Years Eve in San Francisco (our last trip as a family of 3), Eli's first trip to DisneyLand, celebrated our anniversary in Vegas, took a girls trip for my 30th & went on a California Coast Disney cruise! Oh, and numerous house projects in between - as well as jumping into my little EVER side business! All of this while raising our little firecracker toddler & going through infertility treatments. To say it's been busy, emotional, crazy would be an understatement. I'll hopefully be able to blog about all of these experiences so I can look back on them later (but first I need to get the pictures off of my camera haha) but I figured documenting baby T #2 was a good place to start!

The day we found out we were pregnant! {No bump picture this week}

How far along: 4 weeks

How big is baby? Poppy seed

Symptoms: Hungry more often, more bathroom breaks, lots of congestion & mucus, insomnia? exercise induced asthma (I’m fine while doing cardio but after I can’t stop coughing)

Maternity clothes: Not yet

Stretch marks: Umm I’m not even going to track that this time because I have residual from last time

Sleep: Been passing out pretty early but that may be a combo from vacation/time change/parenting

Miss anything: Nada!

Movement: Not yet

Food cravings: None yet

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!

Have you started to show yet: No!

Labor signs: None

Belly button in or out: In

Wedding rings on or off: On

Mood? In disbelief - even though my first test was super positive, it’s been such a long road to get here that I’m not sure I believe it

Feeling boy or girl? Not really sure - leaning towards boy

Looking forward to: Getting  my blood drawn to confirm my numbers are good!

Best moment of this week: Finding out we were pregnant on our Disney cruise the morning of our stop in San Fran...how’s that for some Disney magic (on the Disney Wonder)?! Ha
