.....that he will be a......
.....the end of May 2010!!!
I am12 weeks today and very excited and freaked out at the same time!! This little one was TOTALLY planned and we were lucky to get pregnant on our first try! Eli is too cute about my little belly and says "awww baby!" while kissing and hugging it. A couple of Eli's friends have recently had new siblings arrive so that has helped in explaining the whole deal. Of course, he doesn't REALLY get how his life will change, but he at least knows there is a baby involved!
This pregnancy has been similar to Eli's in that I have had NO morning sickness, but MAJOR food aversions. More so with this little guy or girl as I for a few weeks there, I literally wanted NOTHING to eat but was also starving...not a good combination. Eating was a chore!! I only wanted fruit and junk food like macaroni & cheese & taco bell. I feel better now but still have aversions to some foods. I also have experienced fatigue, breast tenderness (TMI, probably ;), and breathlessness. Breathlessness is a new one for me, but probably more so due to chasing around a 2 year old than anything. The fact that Eli still nurses some has also probably made my symptoms more exaggerated this time around!
Our official due date is May 24, 2010. If he/she is late like Eli, he/she may be a June baby, who knows! I am very glad to be under chiropractic care and doing yoga this pregnancy to help with back, hip & pelvis pain. Looking forward to the fun 2nd trimester where I'll be nesting & we'll learn the sex of this little person!
Here's a belly pic for this week below. I hope to post about Eli & pregnancy separately once a week, but don't hold me to that :) Have a great week everyone!

YAY!! Glad the news is now officially out!
Congratulations!!!! I finally had some time to catch up on reading blogs today!! That's great news!
I'm so excited for you! :D We are going to have so many new babies!!!
Woo hoo! Thanks so much for the email about checking your blog. I've kind of fallen off of the blog-checking planet:) CONGRATULATIONS!!
I was just thinking about you the other day and wondering if you were expecting yet. Congrats!
congratulations!!!!
Woohoo! Your belly looks so cute!
Congrats again Amy! It was nice seeing you at the wedding. Eli is gonna love being a big bro.
I am so excited again for you guys. Chris says baby then slaps my belly. I just wanted to share with you that you many of your symptoms were the same for me. I was starving all the time, but nothing sounded good. I still take afternoon naps when I can. As for the breathlessness, it was so bad that I actually went to my regular doctor thinking it was something else. I would also suggest Intimate Designs-Cheryl referred me there and I bought two really good bras that have really cut down on the tenderness although not eliminated it. I am so excited we are due just a day apart.
Congratulations again! So happy for your family!
