I Was Away…

Posted on February 7, 2009 in Pregnancy & Labor by little mochi

It’s been quite some time since I have sat in front of my laptop and written in this blog.  Not that I’m trying to make any excuses or anything, but I’ve been so drained the past few months.  I haven’t formally announced this on my blog yet, so here it goes.

Guess what?!  We’re expecting our second child this August!

It’s still too early to know if it’s a boy or a girl.  But at my last appointment, I saw the flickering light (the heartbeat) on the sonogram machine.  Exciting times.

Every pregnancy is supposed to be different, right?  So far, it has been.  This time around, I am constantly nauseated, although it’s more on the mild side.  I don’t know which one I prefer.  To be terribly nauseated, but only for a few days during the first trimester, or to constantly have that mild nauseated feeling.  And I’m always soooo tired!  I think it’s because before, I didn’t have to drive an extra half hour to pick up another kid and then take care of him before I go to bed.  Actually, now, I just shower and go right to bed when I get home.  I leave Little Mochi to the hubby.

Last time, I gained a whopping 50 pounds.  I’m actually trying to watch my diet this time around.  So far, I have gained 2 pounds, which is good since most people with morning sickness usually lose weight (at least according to the nurse that took my blood pressure).

We shall see how this pregnancy plays out.  I’ll keep you posted.

    Congratulations again!!! I gained a bit of weight last month but doctor said since I gained so little at the beginning, she is not worried. I have been eating too much though. I’m always worried that baby is not getting enough nutrient PLUS I can’t help eating junk food while working alone at work. Oh well. I will just stop when doctor tells me. hahaha…
