I'm really trying to eat better and work out regularly with this pregnancy. I do not want to be as miserable as the last time and I'm pretty sure a lot of that had to do with my weight gain. I'm soooo glad that this baby is due in the winter months. I plan on wearing tights, my Uggs, and long flowy shirts at that time. I'm sure my Uggs will be much more comfortable than my awful flip flops and hopefully I won't swell as bad since it will be colder. And the Uggs will compress my legs and keep them from swelling so much. This is what I'm hoping for anyway. We shall see.
I feel pretty good still. No sickness or anything just tired and HUNGRY all the time! It's getting harder to lay on my stomach which sucks!! And I know it's too early to feel the baby move yet but I can feel something going on in there. No actual movements yet but something! It's so weird. I bet no matter how many times you've been pregnant, you don't get used to that. My energy levels have been pretty good although I get to lay down and take a nap every day when Vince does which is glorious.
We won't know the sex until the middle of August. Hopefully before I go back to school. I'm not really as anxious with this one as with Vince. I've gone back and forth on whether I want a boy or a girl. Every time I go into a clothing store I'm always drawn to the cute little girl clothes so that would be fun. Although I might never have any money since I will always want to buy clothes. Hopefully if it's a girl though, someone will let me borrow some of their girl clothes. Since everyone I know has girls except me. :) Another boy sounds really fun too though. Vince will have a little brother to play with and be buddies with. And since I have a little boy, I know the clothes are cute too. And I still get to accessorize since Vince loves hats. :) And I already know what to do with boys. Girls scare the crap out of me when they become teenagers. Because I was one. I was so boy crazy and emotional and ridiculous. I don't know if I can handle that. She would probably hate me then. As I'm sure they all do. :) If it's another boy, I will be the princess of the house. And I would be okay with that. But part of me really still wants a girl too. And two rambunctious little boys running around, breaking things, arms, and each other is kind of scary too. I can't imagine how much we will be spending on medical bills with two of them! So as you can see, there are pros and cons to each. Whatever God decides to give me I will be totally okay with. I don't think I'll be disappointed with either sex.
I go back to the Dr. on the 17th of July so I will update more then. :)
As long as the baby is healthy, that's all that matters. We already love the little bump!
