Re: ~2 Under 2 Check-in~
1. What week are you in? Feeling any better? Finishing up week 11, feeling mostly normal now but I did have a bout of all day nausea yesterday which has never happened, no bueno.
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now? I would say I look like where I was around at least 16 if not 20 weeks last time.
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status? I got tons on stretch marks on my tummy last time, they're faded, not completely though. So far I don't see any new ones. My linea negra is starting to make a come back I think!
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time? I think this time it will be a swing or a RNP, some place I can but new LO down safely where DD can't get at them easily. Last time I think it was the Moby or Lanolin!
5. Doing anything fun this weekend? DH's family reunion. Should be fun, but with a teething baby, I'd almost rather stay home
6. Anything you want to brag on?
DD's walking now which is kind of awesome, and kind of terrible at the same time.
7. Questions for next week?
1. What week are you in? Feeling any better? I am 14 weeks and some odd days. I am feeling much better and more energized thank goodness!
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now? I was probably about 18 weeks along when I looked like I do now.
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status? Last time I didnt get stretch marks until the last days but I have lost a lot of weight since having ds so I am noticing stretch marks I never had before.
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time? I think the bouncy chair will be a life saver because I also have a daycare kid to protect lo from. Last time we loved the swaddle me blankets and I am sure we will again.
5. Doing anything fun this weekend? Relaxing!
6. Anything you want to brag on?
Ds seems to be learning so quickly and it constantly amazes me at how much he knows! I love watching him grow!
7. Questions for next week?
1. What week are you in? Feeling any better?
I'll be 11 weeks on Sunday. Eh. I get waves of nausea now that will hit me out of nowhere. Most recently, one hit me at 3 AM this morning. Fun.
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now?
I think I was about 16-17 weeks. I don't know. I don't really feel like I have a bump yet. Clothes are a little snug, though. Probably like they were around the 16-17 weeks mark.
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status?
No difference that I've noticed yet.
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time?
The Ergo carrier. Last time, it was the Arms' Reach co-sleeper.
5. Doing anything fun this weekend?
My first paying photography job tomorrow morning. Wooooo. (I'm so nervous, I could throw up.)
6. Anything you want to brag on?
Not really. I can't brag about tomorrow yet because I could really let down a client. I'll brag next week if all goes well.
partial molar pregnancy : bfp 6.28.10, d/c 8.17.10, 7 rounds methotrexate, cleared 7.1.11

scarlett irene elizabeth : bfp 5.24.13, born 2.3.14 @ 41w2d, 7 lbs./13 oz./19 in.
1. 12 weeks, not feeling as tired but I have had HG with each pregnancy. At this point, I'm used to puking every day, multiple times a day.
2. I was around 20w with my 1st, and around 17-18w with my 2nd. I don't have anything showing yet really, so who knows.
3. I'm one of the lucky SOBs that gets zero stretchmarks. Linea negra only shows after I've had the baby oddly enough .
4. This time, my woven wraps. Last times, the proper swaddle blankets( A&A)
5. Meeting a DJ for our upcoming Fall wedding
6. My 8m old is THIS close to crawling and he and my son were at the beach yesterday and everyone couldn't stand how cute they were
1. I will be 12 weeks Sunday. I have been getting lots of headaches lately which sucks, but I never got the morning sickness which was nice.
2. I don't remember
3. Just the marks from DS so far which suck, but nothing new yet.
4. Probably the same as DS the swaddle sleep sacks and the paci. The ergo will probably be a big one this time around since I need to be hands free to wrangle DS.
5. Going out to dinner (without DS) with DH on Saturday. We haven't been out just us two since December so I am excited.
6. DS is such a great walker these days and it is so cute to watch.

1. What week are you in? Feeling any better? Week 13 - a little better!
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now? - Hmmm, not really sure. I'm still in that "fluffy" stage.
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status?: None
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time?: Rock n Play probably, just like with A.
5. Doing anything fun this weekend?: Relaxing!
6. Anything you want to brag on?
: A is a rolling machine, which is great! until bedtime, then I'm paranoid-no-sleep-Mom.
1. What week are you in? Feeling any better? 14 weeks tomorrow! Feeling great but tired since DS is running circles around me energy wise : )
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now? Honestly, I looked bigger with my first because I was a lot heavier, but bump wise I think about the same. But looking at my old pics with DS, I looked bigger and weighed more at week 8 than I do now, which makes me happy : )
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status? Stretch marks from baby #1 are more red than faded right now but no new ones (knock on wood)
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time? Last time was my moby wrap, it will probably be more important even this time, because I am going to do everything in my power to breast feed this time.
5. Doing anything fun this weekend? No fun this weekend, just sleep if I'm lucky..lol
6. Anything you want to brag on?
Brag on/ worried about: Going on a 6 hour plane ride to Utah with my one year old for family vacation....at least they are evening flights so if I play my cards right and wear him out in the daytime, I might be able to get him to sleep.
7. Questions for next week? Anyone going to be BFing 2 kids simultaneously? I am just focused on baby #2 BFing because my son hasn't been breast fed since week 4 of his life sadly. Just wondering because I did hear about people reintroducing the breast to their older baby when baby #2 came along. I'm sure that would be a nice experience for some women, but my son has some serious teeth and besides that I doubt he would take it at all. Just wondering if anyone is going to be doing this, and are you reintroducing or just still BFing? : )
1. What week are you in?12! Feeling any better? This pregnancy has been much easier than my first.
2. How many weeks/months were you with your first when your bump looked like it does now? I think it was about the same.
3. What's your stretch mark/linea negra status? No new ones, but still have some faded stretch marks on my belly.
4. What do you think your 'life-saving' baby item will be this time? What was it last time? This time probably the baby carrier. Last time was the Rock n Play.
5. Doing anything fun this weekend? Hanging at home with the family.
6. Anything you want to brag on?
DS is learning new words every day it seems. He has a skinned knee and has been pointing to it and saying "boo boo." So exciting!
