Second trimester...

Well, I am officially in my second trimester! This is pretty exciting! I am 14 weeks (and 3 days)! I have been feeling ok. I have the occasional throwing up, but NOTHING as bad as I did with the girls. That is a blessing, let me tell you. As we were deciding to have another baby or not, and I was talking to God about it, my prayer was always that I would not be so sick that I could not care for the girls like I needed to. It was extremely difficult when I was pregnant with Aydia to take care of my baby Riley because I was sooo sick. I have what I have labeled as "perma-heartburt." It never goes away. I also have headaches pretty much everyday. They are not that bad though, I have dealt with migraines for over 10 years, so a little headache is manageable to me...still annoying though!

Week 13 was a bit rough for me...I had the stomach flu (along with the other 3 members of our family). For 4 days, I could not eat anything...I wanted to eat, but my stomach was just rejecting it the second it got there. As a result, you will notice in my pictures that I now at 14 weeks, look smaller than I did at 12 weeks...which really is ok with me! (I am definitely showing a lot quicker than I did with the girls, which I guess is expected when you are on your 3rd pregnancy. It is as if my body just said, "Oh, this again, here we go!")
