2nd pregnancy

I was hanging out with my sister-in-law today and she noticed that I am starting to "pop out!" It made me excited! I carry so low that my belly looks like an over-sized pouch for quite some time, and people don't readily jump to the conclusion that I am expecting!

So I thought it might be time for a comparison. What do you think? (I wish I had cut my head off the first picture)! 

The second pregnancy has been different for me. I have felt the exact same physically, but I have not spent the same amount of emotional time with this baby. Does that make sense? What I mean is that I have not focused my complete attention to this pregnancy because I have been focused on little Edward. It is interesting. I find myself sometimes forgetting that I am even pregnant! With the first one, I was reading something about him and my body changes every day in a book, thinking about names, wondering what he would look like, and laying around a lot!

#2 differences:

No name yet.

More exercising.

Lunch meat.

2 cups of coffee a day.

Go alone to some doctor's appointments.

Kicks more and earlier.

I worry about the transition in to a family of four. Little Edward and I have such a precious relationship right now and I worry about his little soul being sad when I have to tend to #2's needs. I also think about having to get back in to the infant mind-set. I love being able to put Edward on his feet and let him do his own thing - I forget how much you have to hold little babies!!
