Lucky #13

We are so happy to be 13 weeks along with our second child. Baby is due July 19, 2012. I feel extremely blessed and grateful to be pregnant again, however, it has been pretty tough. I have been so sick since week 5 (started at week 8 with Grant's pregnancy) and it has just started to ease up. Woo hoo!!! All day nausea but rarely throwing up (minus the food poisoning part) has been my life. Also, I was shocked to realize how fatigued I could be, even after 8+ hours of sleep at night I feel so tired. Let's just say I've felt like a bad mom and wife the past couple months as it's been so hard for me to be actively playing with Grant and impossible to make dinner (let alone open the fridge and smell that fridgy smell-yuck). I try not to complain much and just be so happy that all these symptoms are a good sign and there will be a prize at the end.

I've had two ob appointments and one ultrasound so far. Everything looks great with baby and the heartbeat is strong. This photo was taken the day I found out. So happy!! I waited all day to tell Sean when he came home from work. I couldn't think of anything exciting to do for the announcment so I just taught Grant how to say "big brother" and then he said it for Sean.
This ultrasound was a month ago so the baby was more like a gummy bear and less babyish. I think it's a girl because this pregnancy has been so different from Grant's. Sean thinks it's a boy. We will see who's right next month.
