I'm Pregnant!!
It has been such a roller coaster of different emotions but we're finally "adding" a new one to our family and are very thrilled!
We actually started thinking about having another baby soon after we moved into our new house. It was the hot topic of many conversations and we finally moved into action about April of 2010. After what I thought was forever (cause to be honest when you decide to get pregnant you want it to happen like, NOW.), really only 4-5 months, we were pregnant! It was end of August if I remember correct.
It was exciting but also the "Are we sure?" feeling came over me. We hit some really rough patches during this same time and I was nervous about everything that was happening in my life. Including the baby. After a couple of months of carrying the little one Heavenly Father decided that was it. According to my doctor the pregnancy wasn't normal to begin with and so my body started to reject it. I was absolutely crushed and had many nights where I cried silently to myself. After everything that I was going through I started to feel selfish. I put it all in the Lord's hands and thought I know it will happen when the time is right and the time just wasn't right. It was still very hard to let go but I knew I had another one to look forward to.
We waited the long 2 month period and tried as soon as we got the go ahead. This time it was right away. After only a month of trying we were pregnant again and this time it was different. I wasn't nervous and we were both in a good place. I am now 14 weeks and showing as big as ever. My doctor said it's from my pregnancy with Dezi so not to be alarmed but for me it's more embarrassing. This time around is so different from Dezi so just for my purposes I'm listing them to actually compare.
DEZI
-very light all day sickness
-didn't really throw up
-no food aversions
-tired
BABY
-very heavy all day sickness
-throw up and then some any/everywhere
-major food aversions (diet still consists of starches, plain starches.)
-extremely tired
-allergies
-colds
This pregnancy is so different from Dezi that I'm hoping for a girl but of course as long as the baby is healthy that is all that matters. I've always said I wanted four and Gil has always said he wants two. Well he just might get what he wants.....MAYBE.

so happy for you!
kiley has had a really hard time too, i think she is about 16 weeks and we were hoping the second trimester would be better but not so much! she is on zofran but when she tries to stop taking it she goes on 14 hr. binges of throwing up not getting anything down. it's hard i know. i was the same with her! that's why i think hers is a girl and yours could be too!
talk to your dr. about the zofran if it's really bad!
keep us posted!
