Symptoms: Sore boobs like whoa still, and just tired.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Impatiently waiting for my first u/s! One more week to go!
Questions for the group? None.
GTKY: What is your favorite summer time drink?! Usually Sangria but now that I am KTFU I have been drinking just plain ol' water all day long. Sometimes I throw in a small Gatorade.
Rants/Raves/Stories: It is becoming so challenging to keep this pregnancy a secret. I just realized that all my fun summer recreation plans involve drinking. In the last 3 days it was glaringly obvious that I wasn't drinking and no way to avoid it. I'm sure everyone knows but no one is ballsy enough to ask!
Questions for the group? not yet
GTKY: What is your favorite summer time drink?! Sangria!! If I have to choose a n/a beverage it would be homemade watermelon and mint smoothie!

Rants/Raves/Stories: So DH blurted out yesterday when we were out with my FIL's side of the family that we're expecting. I can't be mad at him because he's just so excited, but I really really wish we would've waited longer. My SIL waited until she was 12 weeks with both of hers, and 5 is just so early on. Now it's only fair that we tell my family and my MIL's side.
Questions for the group? Nope!
GTKY: What is your favorite summer time drink?! Cherry Limeades are my jam B-)

@cmar1006 I am a little nervous about this, too. My son is a bit older... he will be 3 when the new baby comes. Just recently he has started noticing babies, so I am pointing them out and talking about them to him. We also talk about the baby in mommy's tummy. I'll probably get some big brother books, etc. Im just going to try to spin it in a positive way that it's so cool that he gets to be a big brother! Your little guy will change a LOT in the next 8 months and you may be surprised at how well he does :-)

My son was 2.5 when my second was born and he did really well. He's a real rough and tumble boy so I had to A LOT of reminding to be gentle. My pregnancy was so rough that he was used to watching a lot of tv and that helped for all the nursing sessions haha. He's always been pretty independent though so I think a lot depends on their personality.
