I've also only gained about half as much weight as I did the first time! I'm sure a lot of that was fluid weight that I don't have this time, but I'm happy about it! I still have eaten everything in sight! This go around I felt her move a lot sooner that the first time--maybe because I knew what to expect and feel for! She was also a lot lower! ALOT! It was awkward to have people feel her kick she was so low! Madison moves a ton more than Kenzie did!
I was induced at 37 weeks with Kenzie, so I didn't get to this point with her, but I'm having a ton more back pain! It started a few weeks ago, but the spasms have really set in now! I have also peed more through the night with this pregnancy! I hardly remember getting up at all to pee during the night with Kenzie! I'm up everynight at least 2-3 times! So annoying! With Kenzie I had the dark line that ran down the middle if my stomach! I don't have that with Madison! (Other things that were big and brown with Kenzie are not this time) My belly button I think popped out more with this pregnancy than it did with Kenzie! I think I got lucky again in the stretch mark department! I don't see any so far, and I didn't get any with Kenzie either! I may have one or two on my hips/booty but I'm pretty sure they were there before! I am so thankful for this! Not that I'm planning on busting out my bikini this summer or anything! I have felt better throughout this pregnancy, up until last week! With Kenzie I was able to come home and relax everynight, but this time I come home to a crazy 2 year old, so no resting! With Makenzie I craved Mexican food and powdered sugar donuts! With Madison I have craved orange sherbet and Mexican food!
Her rash on her face looks much better--thank god! I Lysol'ed all her toys this morning after she left and again tonight when she went to bed!
The main difference I hope to have between the two, is no NICU. I want her to come out pink and crying and come home with her family!
I have said I really wanted to make it to at least February--because it's a prettier birthstone than January, duh! If I can hold out thru tomorrow I have made it!
Today was my first true day of staying home! Scotty took Kenzie to school and I did some cleaning around the house! I met with a potential babysitter in the neighborhood, and I think I may have found my girl! We'll see! I had to run by the bank and of course dropped the bank tube thing and it rolled away! I had to motion to the 6 cars behind me to hang on while I rolled forward and got out to try and find it in 40 mph wind! It had rolled under the car behind me so I motioned for her to move forward so I could get it and run it back to its holder--so annoying! I made a quick trip to Target to grab some last minute things! It did me in! I was dragging on my way out! I really wanted to go to Half Priced Books to get a few new books to read to Kenzie! I attempted but had to put my books down and leave! My back hurt so bad and I was getting spasms after spasms! I came home and laid in bed from 11-4, it was great! I drug myself out of bed and picked up my girl and came home to play and cook dinner! She was super silly tonight!
