The first trimester with Baby Hovey #2 has gone by quickly with so much else to focus on.
This pregnancy has been much the same as the previous one so far. I only had minor queasiness again, although rather than lasting for a week, it did last for about 4wks this time. A couple external factors were very different though, which might have contributed to that minor change. First is that I was still nursing Sonia a couple times a day and noticed that when I would get a let down I would get a little queasiness. Second, for weeks 3-8 of the pregnancy, Eric and I were wheat-free for lent, which I did not enjoy, but which did keep me from getting too bloated or gaining any weight during that time. I definitely have gained more than my share in the 3rd month, though, ugh.
All of the tests look good so far, and this baby is especially “photogenic” per the sonographer 🙂 No gender prediction yet, but my skin does seem to be clearer and I’m craving more salty snacks than last time, so maybe…
Congratulations!
