The Waiting Game

I've been meaning to write this post for about a week now but everytime I got around to it I would feel too tired or nauseous. Yep, if that is not a good enough clue for you then how about I peed on a stick again? Yep that's right. We've got baby #2on the way.

This time around Aaron and I swear we knew we were pregnant right away. I read into the signs early this time. Almost right away I had that metallic taste in my mouth. This made me both happy and sad. I'm happy we got pregnant right away but I had hoped this time I would be without the metal madness. And the nausea. I'll just take the increasing nausea as a sign that the babe is growing well.

We are only 6 weeks in so we have quite a way to go. Once again Aaron is telling everyone that we are expecting so I thought I should catch up my peeps on the news. However it may appear that some may already know.

About a week or so before I could confirm with a home pregnancy test my aunt the Empress sent me an email saying that she dreamt I had twin girls. I'm hoping she is right about the sex, but twins may be overwhelming. I guess what ever will be will be and we will be happy about it. As a believer in prophetic dreaming I took this as confirmation that the metallic taste in my mouth was the sign I was looking for.

There's not much more to tell right now. I haven't even seen my ob/gyn yet. According to some websites we will be due on December 16th. The date is close to my sister in laws birthday (on the 9th) and my neice's (on the 12th) so this little one may just share a birthday like big brother Daniel. I'm also hoping for a vaginal birth this time around. Recovering from a c-section when you are a restless soul is hell.

Now that I've informed my peeps I feel much relief. I will likely keep the news off Facebook for now, but whatever! Woo hoo to #2!

That's my girl!
You did a great job the first time and you'll do just as well this time.
I don't want to freak you out but I never had any discomfort with the third pregnancy.

Thanks! I know what to expect (for the most Part) this time around which will hopefully help me take a more relaxed approached. I'm still just as excited, except I'm not looking forward to staying in the hospital. I guess I shouldn't get that far ahead of myself. :) I'll be sure to keep you up to date as much as possible.
