Pregnancy Diary

1st Month

The start of finding out that you are pregnant is peeing on a stick which a week ago I did again! Myself and Stuart both said we wanted about 12- 18 months between our fisrt children and it looks like it is going to be just about 12 months.
I always got told that the first pee of the day is the best to take a pregnancy test so when I woke up at 4am I thought I might as well as I was really excited to find out if I was or not and to my joy that 2nd line appeared woo hoo.
I did not wake Stuart up to tell him but in the morning he saw it and asked me if I was? "Yes we're having another baby," I could see the smile on his face and I knew this would be another bundle of joy. We are hoping for a girl this time but would be quite happy with another boy if that was the case.
We have had mixed reactions off people for having another one so quickly but this is what we want and thats all that matters. Once we told people that it was planned and our reasoning behind it they then understood.
I am already slightly emotional but Stuart has been great and understands how I feel a bit more this time as we have already been through it. He makes me laugh even when I am in a mood and that is a hard thing to do.
I am pregnant, have a lovely 4month old boy and totally in love, could life get any better?


2nd Month

Its been four weeks since I found out I am expecting another child and I've noticed differences already from my first. I am a chocolate fanatic but it seems my lil one is not the same, for about a week I found I was being sick around about the same time on an evening just after my tea and pudding. I decided to find out if it was anything in particular as it was garlic with my first. To my dissappointment it was chocolate!!
I had also forgotten how tired I was during the first few months of pregnancy! I try not to as I just feel lazy but sometimes it can not be helped. I either have a mid day nap or I find myself falling asleep about 8pm sometimes earlier and sleeping all the way through til morning.
I have also found myself snapping at Stuart and even though I don't mean to I can't help it. Just remember ladies you may not realise your doing it and may think that they are making it up but they are not. Appologise in advance for any mood swing you may have during the day, this is waht I tend to do.
There's a long way to go yet so take it easy.
