Stretch marks? Nope, crossing my fingers I won’t have to ever answer “yes” to the question.
Sleep: Sleeping great, minus Reagan who has a nasty cough right now.
Best moment this week: I felt the baby move on April 30th.
Miss Anything? I just don’t feel “Hot” right now.

I think that they look a TON alike. How about you??
Things are moving along. I have graduated into week 16, but
for the most part I don’t really feel pregnant. I’m at that part of pregnancy
that you just feel fat. Oh well, soon enough I will be large as a house and it
will take a crane to help me role over in bed! This time around I pretty much
forget that I’m even pregnant for the most part because I’m so busy with
Reagan, but I think that is what most Moms that have old kids say about their
pregnancy with the 2nd, 3rd, 4th 5th
so on.
The 4th day into week 15 I woke up at 5am with massive
Braxton hicks. I got up went and pour myself a bowl of cereal and headed back
to bed and watched what was on the DVR. Reagan got up, had some breakfast and
then I figured I better just check and make sure everything was okay. Reagan
and I went into the doctor to get checked out. My doctor told me I was doing all
the right things, I was just having Braxton hicks, and the reason I could feel
them is that I’m a thin person. I was still shocked that I was having them so
early because I didn’t feel them till around 30 weeks with Reagan. I guess with
Reagan I must not have been a thinner person! Hehe. The rest of week 15 went
really well. I felt great and Reagan kept me more than busy.
Week 16 is moving along well and there hasn’t been a lot
happening this week. I’m still at that awkward phase of pregnancy. I went in
for a checkup and the baby’s heart beat was only in the 130’s, which makes me
think boy. I could totally be wrong because I thought that Reagan was a boy the
whole time. I know that most of the time people normally want the opposite of
what they already have, but we could care less. We’re just so happy to be
having another baby. It has been quite the journey getting pregnant and I’m
just so blessed that we get to be parents to another little one. I still have a
mini bump, but it’s growing along. I told Jake this week that I weight the same
amount (when I weight myself on Thursday—the beginning to week 16) as I did
when we got married. He was totally confused by this statement; poor guys just
don’t understand us girls sometimes. I had the most exciting thing this week of
my pregnancy, which was on Monday (April 30th) I was lying in bed
and I felt the baby get in a little tight ball and all of a sudden kick out a
leg. It was just amazing. I’m sure the baby has moved a bit more than I think,
but because I’m so busy with Reagan I don’t get much down time to just sit, put
my hands on my stomach, and take it easy. I’m not one of those women that loves
being pregnant, I would actually rather give birth about 100 times over being
pregnant for 9 months. I know I’m flipping crazy. I do love things about being
pregnant like feeling the baby more, but I’m not a super big fan of letting go
of my body and having zero control. What can I say I’m a small control freak! I
have noticed that when it comes to this pregnancy that I compare it a lot to
mine with Reagan, which is silly because this is a totally different baby. I
sometimes think this baby might decide to come early and be born our Jake and
my 7 year anniversary, just to throw us for a loop. The one thing that I have
learned is to just not stress out like I did with Reagan. I’m a lot more
relaxed and just rolling with the punches. I’m still in most of my
pre-pregnancy clothes. I had Jake pull my maternity clothes out from storage,
which are really big. They also are totally the wrong season. I don’t see
myself wearing heavy sweaters and jackets this time around. I really don’t want
to go and buy maternity clothes till I really need them. I’m just not sure how
much longer I will be able to hold out.
I watch some kids in the afternoon a few days a week and
their Mom asked me today if I was really pregnant because I don’t look any
different. I guess she doesn’t seem me naked like I do every day. Reagan thinks
that the baby is in my belly button, which I think is pretty funny. She also
thinks that the baby is a girl. I guess soon enough we’ll find out. I think
that is about all I have to report for now. I hope that everyone has a great
week and I will update again soon.
