Baby Boy #2 (Sneak Peek)

Originally published on October 2, 2014

Look at this cutie! This is a profile of his little mouth, nose, and perfect round head. I can’t wait to meet him. These were taken at 18 weeks.

I just hit 20 weeks this week. The halfway point. He is the size of a banana. I have my energy back and I am feeling almost normal. I’ve been pretty sick but not quite as bad as with Grant. I contribute that to the fact that Grant keeps me on a pretty tight schedule. No real sleeping in for this momma. Whereas during the first pregnancy I had that luxury. We eat breakfast every day at 7 am and we never miss our 9 am snack time. I have found eating an egg every day really helps with providing my body the protein it needs. Most mornings we try to take a walk around downtown. I crave the fresh air and the walk curbs my morning sickness plus it’s good exercise for Grant and I. I gained no weight at all on my second check-up but don’t worry by the third I gained 7 pounds! My belly seemed to pop out a lot quicker this go-round. Also, I felt this little guy kick at 16 weeks which was very cool. I love this stage of pregnancy. It’s obvious I am pregnant, my husband is realizing this is really happening, Grant can’t stop kissing my belly and talking to the baby, we finally know the sex so I can get to planning, all is well.
