13 Weeks :: 2nd Trimester - Baby C2.0 is cooking!

Well I'm prego again, and it happened just as fast as it did the first time.  We are fertile mertiles :)!  Zeke and Baby C2.0 will be 18 months apart.  I'm pretty sure we are crazy but we're excited to have our kiddos close together in age.   I'm going to blog my pregnancy again.  Hopefully I'll have time to keep it up at least every other week or so - I'm a busy mama with a 1 year old now :).

Belly Pics:

(this week's pic is from 14 weeks - I totally forgot to take one last week)




How far along? 13 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Nope!  I do feel like I'm def starting to get a little belly though!  Def WAY earlier than last pregnancy.   
Weight Gained:  1lb, total of 1lb gained
Waist Size: 31in, total of 1in growth (measuring around the belly button)
Exercising: I took Pilates twice this week.  
Stretch Marks? Nope
Symptoms: This pregnancy I was only nauseous the first 9 weeks!  I've felt completely different than I did last pregnancy. The 1st time I felt boat sick/hung over all day every single day.  This time the nausea would come on super fast and then go away and I felt great.  I haven't had a bout of nausea since week 10!  
Sleep: I've been sleeping really solid about 8-10 hours a night :).  Going to bed between 9 and 10pm.  
Miss Anything? Wine 
Number of times I get up to pee each night: None  
Movement: Yes!  I felt the baby move when I was about 12 weeks!  Super early but I think I knew what I was looking for this time. 
Food cravings: over-easy eggs with toast (i've had this almost every morning since I found out I was pregnant). 
Best moment this week:  Going up north for Karen's bachelorette weekend! It was so lovely spending time with the SF ladies! 
Anything making you queasy or sick: No!  
Have you started to show yet? A tiny bit.  I have a super small bump.    
Gender prediction: We did one of those silly gender pee tests again and it said it was a boy again!  The Dr. also said that she thought she saw boy parts in our last ultra sound last week.  We should be able to find out at our next apt on April 3rd.  Crossing fingers it's another boy! 

Belly Button in or out? In!
Mood:  Busy!  Zeke and I are keeping ourselves super busy.  I sometimes forget I'm pregnant!  
Looking forward to: Zeke's 1st birthday Party!
