Baby #2 – Seven Weeks
12th
2010
I apologize for the lack of posting lately. It seems as though blueberry sized babies have the freakish ability to suck every last ounce of energy from your bloated little body, leaving you on the brink of falling asleep at any given moment. And don’t even test me right now because I already took 3 naps while writing this paragraph.
New this week: I HATE CHICKEN! AND CHEESE! AND SALSA! AND EVERYTHING I LOVED 3 DAYS AGO.
And I am bloated. Like, really bloated. See this picture?

99% gas, 1% baby. It’s gross, really. I could totally double as a life raft with all the air that I have in there.
I would also like to take a moment to salute the women who are able to keep their pregnancy under wraps until the 12th week because HOLY CRAP, complaining about my symptoms to everyone who makes eye contact is the only thing getting me through right now. You women are my heroes.









You’re gonna be the cutest little pregnant lady ever and I love you! So adorable!

Well it passes for a very cute baby bump, gas or no.
Love your hair by the way. That’s a really cute length/style!

Well you look adorable if that’s any consolation! :)
And I’m seriously jealous of how casual you can dress for work! SERIOULSY JEALOUS!!!!

Okay, explain to me PLEASE how you still manage to look hot when bloated. Oh, and prego.
Tell me your secret!
Love and miss you.

Oh Morgan Sssh, you’re tiny!

Ugh. I couldn’t eat chicken for months. I got over it, but I still can’t even think about lentils without gagging.

Look at your gorgeous face and baby bump – so cute!

Bathroom belly pics make me so happy :) Even if it’s mostly gas, it’s adorable
on July 12th, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Bathroom pics FTW!!!! I think we should do weekly bathroom pic comparisons between Maddie baby belly and baby #2 :)

How does that work? Does the baby make gas? Where does baby gas go anyway? Questions that non-pregnant people ponder.

Time seemed to stop for my pregnancy until about week 9. Then I started feeling better and now it’s flying! Unfortunately I realize that two weeks feels like an eternity to you right now, sooo hang in there!
on July 12th, 2010 at 12:58 pm
You still look hot, though. Seriously. Or maybe that picture is blurry? Eh – you’re hot.
on July 12th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
:) You make me smile and you look beautiful! PS Love the hair!

I have a baby bump exactly like that. In my thighs. But without the baby.
on July 12th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
Also without the cute.
on July 12th, 2010 at 8:53 pm
did you hate chicken w/ maddie? i can't ever imagine hating cheese!
on July 12th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
Wow, you’re looking really thin besides the baby bump. :) Yep, still hot.
on July 12th, 2010 at 2:06 pm
bloated, but still oh, so cute. you make me want to be pregnant again, and it’s only been 2 months! sheesh!
on July 12th, 2010 at 2:26 pm
Yes, I couldn't handle the chicken with Maddie either! SO weird how it hits you so suddenly!
on July 12th, 2010 at 10:43 pm
i’m also currently bloated.
but it’s 100% gas/chips/brownies, 0% baby.
you win.

Gotta love that lovely hormone relaxin slowing down your digestive system so that you can absorbe every possible nutrient from the little bit of food you do actually want to eat. Hence the bloating and gas. ;)

The bathroom looks so much more cheerful this time around! :) You are gorgeous!! love you!
on July 12th, 2010 at 3:57 pm
You make me sick you hussy!
Such a cute little gas baby bubble.
Xoxo,
Your east coast bff.

YOU are too cute – even when you’re gassy!
on July 12th, 2010 at 7:47 pm
I died when you said you could double as a life raft, lol!! you are riot. A very cute and bloated riot ;)
on July 12th, 2010 at 8:07 pm
hawtness! you look great!
I know what you mean about people being able to keep their pregnancies under wraps, it’s crazy! a friend of mine didn’t tell anyone until she was 4 weeks away from giving birth! (the one who gave birth on the toilet) nobody had a clue
on July 12th, 2010 at 8:43 pm
i think you look adorable!
haha…oh i lived on salsa!
get you some sweet tarts!
on July 12th, 2010 at 10:30 pm
You look adorable!!
on July 12th, 2010 at 11:12 pm
LOVE you with longer hair…the bathroom shot, and a bump. xoxo
on July 13th, 2010 at 8:13 am
love you too! I compared this picture to my last one with the shelf butt and I got scared of myself. lol
on July 13th, 2010 at 7:16 pm
You are gonna be such a cute prego!
on July 14th, 2010 at 11:31 am
UMMM, I think you look HOT!
My last pregnancy I lived on wings. So I totally get the bloatedness thing. You don’t look it though.
In other news, I still look about 3-4 months preggos.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
on July 16th, 2010 at 12:00 am
thanks Elizabeth! I can't wait until it's actually a baby and not just massive quantities of dairy-induced bloat. lol

And today you get to go and officially see your lima bean! Good luck!
on July 16th, 2010 at 9:55 am
Haha!!

Traci, it was the cutest lima bean I've ever seen! haha

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
on July 16th, 2010 at 1:33 pm
Oh my, my husband and I had a good laugh about complaining about symptoms getting you through. I can’t wait to tell everyone next week that we’re expecting (10 weeks) – mostly because I feel an overwhelming urge to whinge!!
