...the baby bump that is. It's crazy how one day you look in the mirror and all of the sudden you look pregnant. With Charlie I was so excited to be pregnant I started wearing my maternity clothes as soon as I possibly could. I think I even know what week I put them on, but I'm too embarrassed to admit it. All I'm going to say was it was too early. Anyways, because of this I wanted to burn all of my maternity clothes even more once I reached the end. I felt like I wore them f.o.r.e.v.e.r. These babies are too close together in age for me to forget how sick and tired I was of those clothes. Thankfully, I lost some weight and had to go buy some new maternity clothes (smaller fat clothes? yes!) This has put me in a much better mood.
I vowed to wait as long as humanly possible before I put the maternity clothes on. I've been wearing two pairs of sweat pants for I think two weeks? It's pathetic. It's either A. look fat in regular pants or B. look pregnant in maternity pants. My friends, I am now choosing to embrace this wonderful stage in life and am now sporting the maternity pants.
This pregnancy is going great (except one scare of cramps and bleeding that led to a quick ultrasound to check everything out. Baby was fine, but wow what an emotional wreck I was that day). Time is flying by and I'm getting more excited. We're 17 weeks along.
At the same time, I'm nervous for a second baby. I'm going to miss the days with constant one on one time with Charlie. I remember how tiring the beginning is and I'm worried I won't have enough energy to be a good mom to Charlie and a new baby.
I guess I want time to go by faster AND slower...is that possible?

Megan you look great! I haven't started wearing maternity clothes yet. I was actually just wondering today when I should. Maybe it will feel great like buying new regular clothes. I'm glad you were able to get some to make you feel better. :)
I know I am not a mom or prego.. (lets hope not. lol) but I think you will do wonderful. after watching my sister I understand it can get pretty stinking crazy. BUT, As long as you stay close to heavenly father. He will help and make you stronger. anyways I love you OH so very much and I swear I will come out soon.

Megs- I am so excited for you!! I totally agree with you about the maternity clothes- it's exciting and crazy all at the same time!! :) You are going to be a great Mom because you already are with Charlie! I have been worrying about the same thing- what is it going to be like with two?! I know it will be better than you know ;)
You are looking so cute :)
yay! i LOVE a cute baby bump.
just be happy that maternity clothes have come such a long way - even since i had ethan five years ago. there's so much stylish, even fitted stuff that was SO not available way back when. it used to be wear a tent for six months. so strut your cute self in your cute maternity clothes! you look fabulous!
and...you will be tired. but you will get through it. you can be a good mother and not have loads of energy. and it's amazing how big your heart grows to accommodate the love you have for every child that comes into your family. motherhood goes by too fast to waste it feeling guilty about anything!
Megs you look so good! I'm glad everything is okay with the baby!Haha I wore my maternity clothes way early too, and now I am SO sick of them! I'm really excited for you, hope you are feeling well :)
