Pregnancy round 2 post 2....I legit don't care

     

        Yesterday was our first ultrasound. They dated me 5 days sooner than we thought originally, and the doctor doesn't feel like the girl vs boy odds are 50/50 anymore. She's leaning 60/40 girl. She said to me at the time, "obviously you want a girl". Let me tell you why this is not the case.

        I think Cale wants a girl, because he likes the idea of one of each. Me, I legit don't care. One of each would be cool, and on some level maybe it would give me a mother daughter relationship I didn't really get to experience. That said, I freaking love being a mom to a little boy. Jake is goofy, and cuddly and rough, and hilarious. Not to say a little girl can't do this. I have always been one of the guys, and you couldn't tell me something was for boys growing up. Before the days of outraged parents on social media, I was already showing people I could keep up with the boys. I would likely teach my little girl to be the same way ( it's kind of what I know). The thing is, you don't have to sell me on boys. I have one, and it's awesome.

         Let the record show, whatever my child turns out to be, they will be loved, and cared for, and welcomed with loving arms into our family.

Pregnancy post, round 2, post 1

           We have officially announced, we are expecting once again. I have neglected my blog for a while, which is sad because it's something I enjoy. I haven't felt up to it for a while, because nausea has been real this round. That said 2 of my favorite types of posts to do are Christmas posts, mom posts and the short lived pregnancy posts.  On my old blog I started them late, not so much this time.  I'm 12 weeks and 4 days, nausea hasn't left yet, and they have been doing tons of tests early.

          This was about when I had my first appointment with Jake. Because of my being high risk last time, I was brought in as early as they could get me. I am back on my meds, and have been tested for gestational diabetes, I have it again. I expect there will be a lot of comparisons from my last pregnancy, and it's interesting because so far it has been very different. What is fantastic is that we're on top of everything this time, and early. This (in my head anyway) means we should he able to get back to normalish. What will be interesting about this round is this time it's not just focused on how I'm feeling, and our updates on the baby.  It will be this  and how Cale and I juggle it all, and still parent Jake. Gonna be much bumpier.
