This week marks 14 weeks with Baby D #2! I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is already going by! On January 13th Matt and I got quite the surprise when I took a pregnancy test (or 3) and it (they) were positive. We weren't planning on having another baby this soon but we are definitely excited. The new baby is due September 18th, so Ellis will be 16 months old. We've heard from everyone that the next few years will be a blur but that we will survive. We know it's going to be crazier than we could ever imagine but it's such a blessing that our children will be so close in age and hopefully best friends.
So far this pregnancy has been different than with Ellis. This time I'm tolerating sweets (yay!) but I have a lot more morning & evening sickness (boo!) I'm hoping that the sickness will subside soon but am thankful that I feel well during the day for work. At 14 weeks Baby D is the size of a lemon and weighs about 1.5 ounces. I think it's amazing that this little baby can already squint, frown, grimace & possibly suck his/her thumb! So far everything is going well and we're just ready to meet this little guy/girl!

Fun post, Kristin! And it was neat reading and catching up on all your other posts. Love seeing all the pics of Ellis. She is so adorable!!! And congrats again to you and Matt on this second pregnancy! We are all excited for the two of you and for Kaye and Rob. :)
ReplyDeleteWe are just as excited about Baby D #2 as were when we found out about Baby Ellis!!! Can't wait to meet the new one in Sept!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you have a "bump" at 6 weeks! But, then at 14 weeks, it's the same size bump! So excited for y'all! My boys are 20 months apart...and it's doable :) You will survive!
