Big news in our household... William is going to be a big brother! Baby Orosz #2 is due September 3, 2013!
It is public knowledge at this point, but we haven't documented it on the blog yet! As a friend with two children says... "second child syndrome..." :) We won't let that happen though! We found out about #2 on December 22. My head hurt and I laid down. I took a three hour nap (NOT the norm, I assure you! Maybe in my pre-baby days...) and woke up with a terrible headache still. Deja vu. William gave the same signs. Sure enough, we had a + sign and were very surprised and happy to see it! We went out to Houston's to celebrate that evening - just as we did when we found out we'd be expecting William. This time it was with a 11 month old in tow!
Just as it was with William - easy, breezy 1st trimester. I've never felt nauseous, been sick, sleepy, repulsed, or any of the usual ailments. I took William's pm naptime to lay down myself for the first few weeks instead of the usual zooming around the house to pick up, fix dinner, and do other miscellaneous tasks. I'm not sure if that is pregnancy related or just I have a toddler that goes non-stop! I'd read or flip through a magazine. I didn't feel sleepy. Another "I'm not sure if this is pregnancy related or just I have a toddler that goes non-stop" symptom is the forgetfulness. I am very much on top of things - typically - but nowadays it's ridiculous. I'd lose my head if it weren't connected. I went to the airport the other day WITHOUT my luggage. I didn't show to a friend's baby shower that I was very much prepared to attend. I left shopping bags at a restaurant. Double booked babysitters. The list goes on... and it's embarrassing. I do blame it more on thinking... where's William, what is William doing, what does William need... than new baby hormones... pretty sure that won't be getting better anytime soon, so I write down everything! I do want to eat more often. I'm not a snacker - same thing happened with William. Bacon, egg and cheese english muffins from Dunkin are my favorite food right now. I have always loved them (and ate quite a few after William was born), but they taste really great right now.
Back to baby... we had our first baby appointment at 8 weeks. My OB/GYN office changed their ultrasound policy to one ultrasound at 8 weeks, another at 12 weeks and a third at 20 weeks (before it was 12 weeks and 20 weeks only), so we were very excited to see the baby so early! The baby had a great heartbeat and everything else checked out perfect. Our doctor said we should feel really good about the pregnancy and once we've seen a solid heartbeat the chances of anything going wrong is slim. We shared the news earlier this time around because we felt pretty confident in what our doctor told us. Last time we waited until 13 weeks, but this time it was 9 weeks when we told family and close friends. We waited until our 12 week appointment to make it "public" knowledge though.
With friends in Florida I waited until I was "spotted" not enjoying a cocktail at a baby shower. It only took a handful of minutes for that to happen and so it spread. Good job, detectives! Then with family we had William sport his "big brother" shirt to his 1st birthday dinner at our house. He walked in wearing the shirt and no one read it. It took probably 10 minutes for anyone to notice. The font isn't exactly small, so Matt and I thought it was pretty hysterical. Matt's dad even had William on his lap and rearranged the shirt without noticing! Lots of fun sharing the news!
The 12 week appointment went just as well as the 8 week appointment. Heartbeat strong and growing right on track. We tried to spot any boy/girl parts, but at that point nothing was visible. You know me! If I can find something out, I will! No waiting for us and we made an appointment for a gender ultrasound. March 18 we will find out if we're having a boy or girl! The time has flown by (probably because we're so busy with William), but this week is going by slowly! I can't wait till Monday...
15 weeks along this week. No belly shots - once again, too busy. I'll get one next week. I'm still in my normal pants, but my belly is "popping" a little - definitely more than the first time around. I don't think I saw a teeny bump until 20 weeks with William. I know that is how it goes the second time around though.
All good things and we couldn't be happier! Thankfully our new house is being built... those rooms are getting filled fast and thankfully, there is extra space for visitors/babysitters :) as well!
