Still Tired...

Six weeks and still no other symptoms other than being tired all of the time.  I guess I should count my blessings...I didn't have any morning sickness with Brie either.  Here's hopin'!

Week 5 or...DAMN I'm Tired!!

Well, I’ve notified lots of people about the happy news. Our first ultrasound will be on the 8th and our first full prenatal appointment will be on the 22nd. I can’t believe I’m going to be a mother of two!!



I’ve been so unbelievably tired! I remember being tired with Brie, but not dead-on-my-feet tired this early! Hell, I didn’t even find out until six weeks with her! I know that each pregnancy is different. I’ll have to figure out a way to manage since she doesn’t go to bed until 8:30. The first pregnancy when I was tired, I just took a nap! Now I have to be all “responsible” and look out for my daughter’s “safety” and mess. How am I supposed to manage that!


No food cravings or aversions yet. There wasn’t any food I couldn’t take with Brie (which is probably why I gained a whopping 58lbs.), but I did want cheeseburgers all of the time. I guess there’s plenty of time for that though.


Oscar (my IBS) has kicked into overdrive though, so I have to be careful. They told me it would either get much better or much worse. So far with this little one it seems to be the latter.


A nickname hasn’t come to me yet, either. With Brie she was automatically “the pumpkin” but I haven’t had one come to me yet. I’ll know it when I know it, I guess.

So It Begins...AGAIN








Yep, you see correctly! The baby making machine has kicked into high gear once again! I knew I was pregnant. Don't ask me how...I just did. Last time I took a test and it was negative, but I still didn't believe it. I didn't feel it was right, you know?


Same thing this time around. I took a test last week that came out negative. I honestly couldn't remember "the first day of my last period", so I thought maybe I was off by a bit. I bought a test 2-pack and figured I could always use the second test later. I took it...it was negative. I still didn't "feel" that it was right.

Still no cycle today (and I thought for SURE it would come today...I made the conscious decision to wear white pants!). I felt a little weird on the drive over to my Mom's, so I decided that I would take the second test when I got home. Sure enough, Mother's Intuition(TM) was right on the mark.


I think I'm getting the hang of this blogging thing over at A Buncha Randomness, but I wanted to give this special delivery his or her own fourm. ONCE AGAIN, I find out hours before I'm able to tell Kenny about it. The first time I confirmed during my lunch hour at work and had to wait until the end of the day. This time he's at work and I have to wait for him to come home on his break. HOPEFULLY he can come home tonight...I hope they're not too busy.


So, I'm saving this post until Kenny comes home and I can show him the test myself. I'll come back, update and post once that's done. The excitement is KILLING me!!

Hours Later...

Kenny came home and I gave him the good news.  He's thrilled, but he seems very subdued.  He says it hasn't "hit him yet".  I on the other hand am VERY excited.  We both have tons of thoughts going through our heads.  Let the new Journey of Baby Jordan, Part Deux begin!!
