Hi,
It seems like I haven’t posted much on here lately, but I’ve
been feeling like crap most of the time and even though I’ve wanted to do a
post I just had zero motivation. I am so excited to share with you that we are
pregnant! We have hoped for the moment we’d give Emma a little sister/brother
for such a long time. I am currently 14 weeks pregnant, I can feel myself
starting to relax and enjoy this baby now. Though our baby was very much
planned it came so unexpected I couldn’t believe it and took a grand total of
28 pregnancy tests, 3 scans to sink in.
Your second pregnancy is so different to your first, some
days you don’t even remember you’re pregnant. I’ve really struggled this time
around. I remember saying to my husband that I always felt exhausted and I
didn’t remember it feeling like this the first time around, then again I also
didn’t have a two year old to run after. Symptoms I’ve had every single one, the
sickness has been awful. I was on seven different anti sickness tablets a day
for a few weeks! Also my skin has become so dry and keeps breaking out in spots
especially on my chin.
We are having a gender scan once I reach 16 weeks, we are so
excited to find out so we can start planning and getting ready. This time we’ve
decided to do a gender reveal which I’m really looking forward to, with Emma we
just called and texted people. We’ve got a busy few months coming up as we are
planning on moving to. But I couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter.
