I can't believe it's the end of April and we are still waiting for Spring! This is not making for a happy pregnant woman! I still have not been feeling well at all and I am just counting down the days till the second trimester! Let me tell you being pregnant with IBS is no picnic! I have had 2 very bad IBS attacks and the cramping that comes with them! If I didn't know what an IBS attack felt like I would think something was horrible wrong with the baby.
I'm starting to get very nervous about after the baby comes. What if I start having flare ups again what am I going to do? When Riley was a baby is was bad enough having to rush off to the bathroom while in the middle of feeding her and here her cry because she was hungry. Or she needed a diaper change and I couldn't get out of the bathroom. Now I will have to worry that the baby will cry and Riley will try to help the baby. What if she tries to pick the baby up or give it a toy that is too small. I just worry and worry about these things and it makes me more stressed out which never helps.
I'm hoping it will be better since I'm not going back on any type of hormone birth control which I think didn't help the matters. I will have too look back in old blogs too see when my flare ups started after having Riley.
Right now I want to feel better so I can clean and organize the house. I wanted to do spring cleaning and wash all the curtains and everything but that hasn't happened yet. Guess it doesn't matter since I always thing spring cleaning needs to be done with the windows open and that has only happened like 2 days so far!
I had my first Pre-Natual appointment last Tuesday. Kappus said everything looks great I get a A +. The heartbeat was 170 faster then Riley's was so I'm starting to think it might be another girl. My uterus is measuring bigger she said it was more like 10 weeks and I was 9 at the time. It did that with Riley too. Riley is very excited to go tot he next appointment with us so she can hear the heartbeat. I can't wait either because that means I'm out of my first trimester!

Come on Spring!
If you saw my house you would be shocked at the disarray it has fallen into! I cannot stand how messy the house is but I just haven't felt well enough to do anything about it! Zach is doing a pretty good job at trying to keep up with the laundry and loading and emptying the dishwasher but he just doesn't break out the vacuum or clean the bathrooms. He has been very busy with tutoring and the ebay work that I have been letting go too. I just cannot wait to be out of this first trimester and stop feeling so icky all the time!
Yesterday I had an ultra sound. I was having some light bleeding and cramping on Wednesday so the Doctor wanted me to go in. They couldn't find anything wrong. We saw the baby and hear the heart beat(167)it is measuring right on with my due date. It's very reassuring knowing that there really is baby in there!
I can not take this weather anymore I'm so ready to just pack up and move! Come on spring lets go here! It needs to get warm to it can get cold again so they baby will be here! Not looking forward to a long winter stuck in the house with a 4 year old and a new born! But at this point I just want spring to come so i can open windows and go outside and get some fresh air!

Been a While
Well it's been a very long time since I wrote a post! So much for keeping track of the day to day on goings! We have had a lot of fun and exciting things happen and some not so great things! This year started off very badly for me! I had 5 teeth pulled and massive amount of dental work done that cost quite a pretty penny! It was a very difficult pain fill couple of months for me!
But like everything I got though it and I think with all I was going though Zach felt bad for me a decided that it was time to take a family vacation! So off to Disney World we went for 10 days in the end of February to early March. It was a fabulous trip we had so much fun! Riley might not remember it any of it but it is something Zach and I will always remember doing with her!
When we got home we got some excited news! I'm pregnant and we will be expecting baby number 2 in the middle of November. We had planned on having another baby and had been trying since the fall but then all the dentist stuff happened and we had to put it on hold. Then we where not sure what was going to happen since the dentist had cost so much money so we took the lets just see what happens approach and sure enough the first month of that I got pregnant.
Riley is so excited all though I don't think she full understand that the baby is not going to come out talking and playing with her. But she is very excited about getting things for the baby and talking about names. Well telling us what we should name the baby! LOL
My pregnancy started off very well I was only tired for the first few weeks then in the middle of the 6th week I started not feeling well. Some days are worse then others but I'm looking forward to being out of the first trimester as quickly as possible! If this weather would ever warm up I we could open the windows for fresh air and get outside that might help some too! Especially when Zach cooks these pizza that make me want to gag! I think we will ave to have a new rule that he can no longer cook those! I didn't like them when i was pregnant with Riley either!
Riley has done very well with home preschool even though we have not done any in the past month. Coming home from Disney and being pregnant at the same time took a lot out of me and the house has never been the same since because I just can't keep up with it! She can now write her name and almost every letter in the alphabet she is doing very well and knowing what sound the different letters makes as well. I'm very impressed with all she can do and I know not sending her to preschool this year was the right choice because she learned so much more with me.
We will be sending her this fall and I need to start looking into schools. it's going to be a pain dragging her and the baby out of the house 3 days week in the middle of winter but what else can I do. I do worry about her getting sick and bringing it home to the baby seeing in how she will be in preschool before the baby is born and will continue when its a newborn.
I'm hoping to keep up this a little more because it sure is nice to look back and see what went on when I was pregnant with Riley and that's were I wrote all her firsts at as well!
