Pregnancy Differences

This post has been brewing in my mind.  It may not be interesting to you all, but it is something I wanted to document for myself.  We will be able to find out the gender is about 6 weeks.  If we see little boy parts, I will seriously be shocked.  This pregnancy has been so completely different than my last and I just have this gut feeling (one I never had with Bryson) that this is a little girl.

Bryson
I had morning sickness multiple times per day for at least six weeks.
Baby #2
After bragging this past weekend about how I haven’t been sick at all, I did have one bout of morning sickness at about 10:30 Tuesday night.

Bryson
I was full of energy.  At the time, I was working 50+ hours a week on my feet, so I guess I didn’t have much of a choice.
Baby #2
I need naps more than Bryson does at this point.  I can finally feel a bit of energy coming back, but I still take a nap at least three days week.  Thankfully, this go around I am a stay at home momma!

Bryson
I had many cravings.  Two of the strongest were BBQ sandwiches and onion rings.
Baby #2
I have had no cravings thus far.  I have eaten more fruit than anything lately.

Bryson
I was hungry 24/7.  Seriously, I couldn’t make it from break to lunch without a pack of crackers.
Baby #2
I have so many food aversions.  Nothing sounds good and I have actually lost about 4 pounds.

I only have a few days left in my first trimester so I hope to start feeling better all around.  I will continue to update with differences.

  • >Wow Whitney — I've been gone from blog reading and writing so long that I didn't know you were pregnant!! Congratulations!!

    It would be great to have one of each, a boy and a girl. Another one of those old wives tales is that a girl "steals" her mother's beauty. So if you feel your face is not looking it's best with this pregnancy, this is supposedly a clue.

    So excited for you — will you be sharing the news when you find out?
