Can’t remember if I’ve announced it or not but we are expecting our second boy! Was quite certain it’d be a girl based on all the differences I experienced during this pregnancy; but we are very happy to have a baby brother/best friend for Ethan and another little buddy around the house 
One of the differences I have had recently is horrible heartburn!! Ginger is now my best friend! I cannot believe how quickly it alleviates the heartburn and on a scale of 1-10 this feels like a 10 in discomfort!
I cannot keep coughing cuz the burning sensation reaches my throat!
Ive also read that avocados may either cause or alleviate heartburn…awful!
As I was pregnant with my first during the warmer months, maternity clothes never posed a problem because I could get away with maxi dresses and other like summer dresses! Now that I’m pregnant through the freezing winter months, I’m at a loss of what to wear every morning…thank goodness I get to work from home for the majority of the week but still!
Thank goodness for the Internet…hopefully these can inspire me to shop at less expensive options and make due with what I have…first things first: I need to invest in a really pretty silk/satin ribbon:
I’m officially 12 weeks pregnant with #2 (hoping its a girl but understand if its a boy Ethan will have a very best friend for life). My problem this time around is that I will be pregnant for the entire Winter and working in the Corporate world. I was lucky enough to carry Ethan throughout the Summer and worked at a very lax place where I could get away with maxi dresses! This time, I must buy some maternity clothes…I not only dread this because the selection at Thyme maternity feel like better tailored clothes from Walmart…but the selection is very limited and boring…and frankly, I don’t want to look like every other prego woman out there…if we only have Thyme Maternity to choose from, how different can we all look? SOoo i’m going online…
So far i’ve found:

Sooo Ethan has recently turned 2 and we decided its time we start working a baby brother or baby sister! And boy was that fast! I’m having symptoms like u wouldn’t believe!
horrible nausea, fatigue, backache, cramps, food aversions, cravings, elevated temps, the whole 9 yards!
Boo! To make matters worse, hubby wanted to take me to Baton Rouge, a “better restaurant” than our typical chinese restauant. Unfortunately I ended up getting food poisoning! Horrible! Baby Ethan got it too…not nearly as severe as me: 5 hrs throwing up only relieved with an meds via IV…damn those bacon wrapped scallops! It was violent. Upside? Doctor did an ultrasound and baby is ok
How adorable is this????
