Bump Watch

I love being pregnant. With that said, round two has been quite a different experience than the first. As you can see by the belly picts below I'm tracking about two weeks larger with baby #2. I've come to the conclusion that my age is to blame. If two years since my last pregnancy can make me feel this much more tired, sick, and big/heavy then I can't imagine how I'm going to fare when I'm on baby #3 (or if I'm still sane and willing #4). Believe me when I say that my pregnancies are still easy in comparison to what they could be. I have no reason to complain. And my intention really isn't to complain but to rather point out the mere fact that pregnancy is proving to get harder, or shall I just say more cumbersome, the older I get. So I'm thinking that the best strategy is to: 1) pop out these babies as quickly as I can and 2) embrace and love pregnancy as much as I did the first time around. Because let's face it. Pregnancy is a miracle and all I can really ask for is a healthy baby in the end. So here's to loving pregnancy, the good, the bad, and the fat!
