I can tell you that there was not a lot of morning sickness, though, I didn't really have time to be hurling in the bathroom since I am home all day with a baby who needs constant supervision. I started feeling #2 move around this week, which is about 2 weeks sooner than I felt AJ. She was pretty chill and the only thing I was feeling was her shift in sleeping positions (which she still does). As far as I can tell, this pregnancy is going pretty well. There has not been any major events, I can feel our little one moving, each visit there baby has shown signs of growth and a strong heartbeat, and we are pretty happy parents.
In the spirit of embracing the bump, I will share that I have started gaining weight again because these last couple weeks have been rough and schedules have eluded me. To confess, food has been my comfort and a poor choice at that. I have still been determined to walk, though the hard work is cancelled out once I am home and the only steps I take are between the couch and the kitchen. It has only been a 5 pound gain in the last 3 weeks, so I am confident that even if I cannot lose it, I can maintain it (through grace, prayer, and hard work). I can say, though, that the gain has not been overwhelming in its discouragement and I am much more comfortable in my own skin than I was a year ago waiting for AJ.
Please keep us in your prayers that I would set a good example for my daughter and remember the importance of having a healthy diet no matter what stage of life or season I may be in.
