I had grand plans for adorable "bump" progress pictures, but since I am the paparazzi of the family it has just gotten away from me. I will try to do better just in case this our last pregnancy, and now knowing that it's a girl she may want to see what her Mom looked like pregnant!
Also, this "bump" is not filling out as nicely as Jack did. Not in the cute phase of pregnancy yet, maybe because it is a girl, but this time around I seem to be carrying in the round instead of straight out. The first trimester felt so long, but with only 17 more weeks to go (14 weeks if she is 3 weeks early like her brother) this pregnancy is now flying bye. My energy is back, it took until week 19. So different than with Jack! She is moving and grooving, that started around week 16 and has progressively gotten stronger and Preppy can feel her now which is so much fun. The private dance party that occurs daily in my belly is my favorite part of pregnancy!
My only big compliant these days is that I have round ligament pains, so uncomfortable at times I can barely sleep. I know they will go away once sweet little baby girl is here, so for now I just have to deal with it. Jack loves kissing and hugging on "Baby Girl". He knows when we go to the Doctor that it is for "Baby Girl" and we get to hear her heartbeat. So precious it makes my heart smile. Love fruit just as much as I did with Jack, but also cookies and ice cream this time too, Baby Girl has brought on a sweet tooth. Major! As far as weight gain goes, it hasn't been that much yet, but I started out heavier than usual (some I-am-sad-we-moved lbs.). While the scale says I haven't gained much I feel huge! It is all worth it and I know with a little hard work after I will get back in my wardrobe!
Baby Girl's name is TBD, we have a front runner, hopefully her Daddy will get over the SHOCK that it is a GIRL and commit soon! For the longest time we just figured that we would be the family with like four 7 foot wild crazy boys that never get invited over. Our world was rocked with news that it is GIRL! I don't think we anticipated how happy the news that we are having a little girl would actually make us! We feel so blessed that we get to experience being parents of a boy and the girl!
