Actually, to be more precise, about 5 months. I’m almost 20 weeks pregnant with another boy!
Let me tell you, the first trimester kicked my butt! I’ve never been so sick. I only threw up a few times, but, man, I was constantly nauseated and dizzy and super tired. Emotionally, I was spent. I think that looking after a 16 month old and working while dealing with all-day sickness and fatigue just got to me. Looking at the computer screen made me ill, thinking made me ill. I just couldn’t bring myself to be on the computer except to work (and obsessively read pregnancy message boards).
The good news is that I feel SO much better. Around 16-17 weeks, all my symptoms vanished, except my growing belly and ass, of course.
The Baby is doing great. He’s a walking/running/climbing fool. Poor guy doesn’t know what is about to hit his little world. I kinda feel bad.
Have a great 3-day weekend, if you're celebrating Labor Day!
Holding On
“He’ll get used to it.”
My heart breaks to think he would feel
left out or behind.
I hold him closer
before bed, kiss his soft hair.
It’s just us, for now.
Have a great 3-day weekend, if you're celebrating Labor Day!

Hopefully, he will be a proud older brother.....who wants to hold him and play with him too much!
Congratulations! I was wondering where you were and hoping everything was okay! Glad to see you back. What wonderful news.
So glad to see you back!! Congrats! So happy for you. :)
Awww. I remember feeling this way. I have 3 boys!
In a couple of years he'll realize that a little brother is even more fun than a mommy, most of the time.
Congratulations!
Congrats to you! I loved how your haiku expressed so simply something so complex. Beautiful.
Welcome back. I'm almost 18 weeks now and I'm still getting my butt kicked. Hoping it goes away soon.
Congrats on another boy. We don't know what we're having yet. Hope to find out in a couple of weeks...

Congratulations! I was a bit worried about you. I'm so happy everything is wonderful for you.
That is so exciting!
I have two little boys. The oldest one is two years (and three months) and the baby is five months. I can already tell that they are going to be best friends when they grow up!
Congrats! Was wondering where you were...
Take it from me (mom of 3 little guys) - boys are great!
