Hello Second Trimester!!

We finally made it to the second trimester! The first 8 weeks went by so slow but now time is flying by. We bought our first baby item, a stroller! I fell in love with my girlfriends stroller after spending a weekend with her and her little guy. Her Orbit Baby stroller was literally a dream! One morning I was looking on this wonderful site called Gilt that has designer items for discounted prices. It so happens the Orbit Baby G2 Stroller was on there in the color I wanted!! We couldn't pass up on that deal! I can't explain how excited I am on a stroller! Kind of scary.





We had a few doctors appointments these last couple of weeks. We got to hear the heartbeat for the first time and got another ultrasound of our little peanut. It likes its hands and fingers in its face. The baby slept during the ultrasound which was great for taking measurements and getting all the important information they needed. All of our tests came back negative which means we have a healthy baby! The baby measured at a new due date of 6-6-12!

As for my pregnancy, it has been pretty easy. Still no morning sickness. I got motion sickness on the plane ride home from visiting Dana's parents. The heartburn has died down but the headaches are constant. I guess I much rather have headaches than nausea. I have the worst case of baby brain. I forget everything!! I know it's driving Dana crazy and to be honest its really driving me crazy! I officially have to write everything down and I am a complete mess at the grocery store.  I have learned that the baby doesn't like when I over do it. I'm use to having a busy schedule all day, everyday. I had no idea how exhausted I would be all the time. It's very frustrating at times. I've had to scale back a lot but I think it's good for me and the baby. I also got a chest and booty I have always wanted but I hope they both stop growing. Anymore of either can be scary. I guess be careful what you wish for! ;)
