BABY #2

Ok all I am adding to the baby blog. I thought this blog would be dormant for a lot longer but I guess not. I am going to keep all baby #2 pics on this blog and keep my other blog for familiy activities. Once Baby bug #2 is born I will resume to just using The Menards not cubed lol. So please check back periodically to both pages.

Ok so here are a few belly shots. I have yet to scan ultra sound pictures so be patient. I have posted 5 weeks and 13 weeks. I know at 5 wks it looks like I have nothing but seriously I was not able to button my pants let alone have any kind of pressure on my belly. I lost so much weight from Mikaela postpartum that I acctually had a gut by 5wks. hard to believe because I was so skinny already. I really felt bloated and gross. Anyhoo.

My due date is December 10th 2008 so they say.... I measured 12 wks 4 days last Thursday when I technically was only 12 wks 1 day. So the further away they think my due date is the better because if I am actually due a week sooner the less likely to be induced. Being induced isn't likely in my case but you never know. Lets just pray I go spontaneuosly again, no drugs, no nothing. Let mother nature play her role the way god intended.

At 10 wks the heart beat was found to our surprise because they said it was too soon to hear it. 164 hbpm . Now at 12wks it was I think 153 hbpm. So right now the heart is beating like it is a girl but that can change as the baby gets bigger.

To start I weighed 112lbs and now I weigh 121lbs. With MiKay I was 126lbs prior to her and in the end 155lbs. They think I will gain the same this time too, about 25 lbs . My midwives think I might gain less weight since I am so little to begin with. They said I am all uterus that baby has alot of room to grow. Lets just hope this is another small baby too.

well check in to see new pics.

As for what we want to have Matty and I don't care either way. Yes we are finding out. I really would like one of natures surprises but matty needs to know and being a control thing I cannot not know if he does for the next months. So it was agreed to find out.
