8 weeks tomorrow! ♡

I still can't believe I'm pregnant.. my son will be 10 months old on the 20th, and I just started planning his 1st birthday! lol my, oh my.. 2 under 2?!

during my pregnancy with him, I was NAUSEOUS NAUSEOUS NAUSEOUS from weeks 6-10'ish & had the most sore, tender, itchy boobs. this time though.. nausea only hits me every now & then, and I'm just tired all the time.

amazing, but so true what they say.. EVERY pregnancy is different. I still have the mild cramps like I did with him, but gosh.. I'm still amazed.

some days I really don't feel pregnant, but I TOTALLY did with him.. so weird! not sure if I just feel disconnected.. because it was SO unexpected, I don't want to take away from my son, and I wanted him to be my baby just a little while longer.. ugh, excuse my hormones.

I'm all over the place.. anyways, congrats to you ladies, enjoy the ride.. here we go again!

oh man.. this one has to come out too doesn't it?!! lol I hope & pray this pregnancy AND birth is as easy & beautiful as it was with Colby Lee on 10/20/14!! ♡

thank you so much!!

I had carpal tunnel HORRIBLY bad after I had my son.. I had splints for each wrist, and I was miserable for a couple months, if not a few! I pray I don't have to deal with that again..

I never considered postpartum depression, but I'll definitely be praying about that.. thank you again for your response, I'm slowly warming up to the idea of just how busy, but thankful I'll be for my 2 angels being so close in age!

I'm now 9w1d, and my son will be 10 months old this Thursday! ((:

I have girls 13 months apart and the pregnancy with the second one w as s very different. But two children under 2 went perfectly for them. They are best friends and can entertain themselves for hours. (They're 6 and 7 now.)
Please be careful to watch for postpartum depression. I really was sick with it after baby 2.

Don't worry about being connected to baby 2 yet, because there's something about each child that will tug a your heart soon enough. Baby 2 now asks tor rub my feet. (I'm 8 months)

Oh, did I tell you that I had carpal tunnel in both wrist trying to hold an 11 month and 8 months pregnant? Take care of yourself.

By the way my oldest 2 boys are the same age gap as your 2 will be and it worked out perfectly. They get along great even at 13 & 14 years old.

My two boys are 15 months apart. It was rough for a few months but now I love that they are so close. They adore each other and play really well together now at ages 2 and 3. Baby number 3 on the way now. I'll have 3 under age 4!!!

yeah, I currently use Luvs, which work pretty good, but hopefully we'll have more income soon cause I love Huggies! my son leaks through the Walmart brand.. go figure. I know we'll make it, my hormones are just everywhere right now, and now nursing school seems like the most difficult thing to start! )):

Damiensmama, it is a handful, tiring, have to find time for myself,  house chores and so are done when neither of them need attention. But I'm really hoping in a couple months my oldest one will be more independent and understanding and the youngest will sleep through the night and in a couple years will take care of each other
