Here are ultrasound photos from the anatomy scan this week. Baby boy #2 is looking healthy and growing steadily. I've been able to feel him move for a few weeks now (maybe since 18 weeks or so?). HR was around 144bpm I think.
I am feeling well, just a bit more tired and hungry than usual. But since 2nd trimester started this pregnancy has been much easier painwise. I'm so thankful for that, since having the energy to keep up with a toddler is hard enough! 1st trimester was a bit worse I would say than last time, but the sickness ended earlier this time (around 14weeks). I mainly crave carbs and don't have an appetite for chinese, mexican or thai food unfortunately. Sweets are okay now, but not my main craving. Heartburn bothers me a little. With Samuel sitting on the potty more now and my tiny bladder I feel like I spend a lot of time in the bathroom! My belly definitely popped out earlier this time as did my belly button (around 15wks). I have gained between 11-15 lbs so far, which I am fine with. Brandon felt the baby kick last week for the first time. Unfortunately I only have 2 belly shots so far and they are pretty bad! I will get Brandon to take some this weekend.
