I am back!
In case you didn't know but I am sure you do, I am pregnant AGAIN!
Yeee, I am so excited to give Miss P a brother or sister to always have by her side, play with, and confide in for the rest of their lives! This most likely won't be the last sibling for Miss P but lets just focus on this little one growing and the fact I am going to get to snuggle with a new born and smell that sweet newborn smell!
So, I am officaly 10 weeks!
I don't feel great.
And I look like I am six months pregnant already! Ewww.
This pergnancy is night and day from my last one!
I will do my weekly updates and will catch up to 10 weeks in this post with photos and information.
I do have to say, that because of the way things are here in NC, I am going to have to make this blog private... I do not want any photos or information or whatever complaints I have (in general not just pregnancy to be used against Mr. G and his job at anytime.) I hope you guys will still follow. Its really easy to subscribe. The next post will be private!
Ok, so I am due Nov. 14! But my c-section will be a week prior to 40 weeks, hopefully not before Nov. 7th...but that is the week Mr. G will be out of town so there will have to be some serious sechduling going down. This will be offically scheduled at 6 months of pregnancy!
WEEK 10!!!
WEEK: 10
MONTH: 2.5!
THIS WEEK THE BABY IS: Though he's barely the size of a kumquat — a little over an inch
or so long, crown to bottom — and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce, your
baby has now completed the most critical portion of his development. This is the
beginning of the so-called fetal period, a time when the tissues and organs in
his body rapidly grow and mature.
He's swallowing fluid and kicking up a storm. Vital organs — including his kidneys, intestines, brain, and liver (now making red blood cells in place of the disappearing yolk sac) — are in place and starting to function, though they'll continue to develop throughout your pregnancy.
If you could take a peek inside your womb, you'd spot minute details, like tiny nails forming on fingers and toes (no more webbing) and peach-fuzz hair beginning to grow on tender skin.
In other developments: Your baby's limbs can bend now. His hands are flexed at the wrist and meet over his heart, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. The outline of his spine is clearly visible through translucent skin, and spinal nerves are beginning to stretch out from his spinal cord. Your baby's forehead temporarily bulges with his developing brain and sits very high on his head, which measures half the length of his body. From crown to rump, he's about 1 1/4 inches long. In the coming weeks, your baby will again will double in size to nearly 3 inches.

WEIGHT GAIN: Last time at this point in my pregnancy I had gained 6 lbs! This time I have only gained 1lb! Go me!
SYMPTOMS: TIRED! NAUSEOUS (although no puking!) an over all feeling of crappy and the smell of coffee makes me gag! Worst than last pregnancy!
CURRENT MOOD: Trying to Survive...almost there!
CURRENT CRAVING: none
CURRENT WORRY: None at the moment, but I have decided to eat gluten free this pregnancy. So far it hasn't been that hard... but I think it will be really good for me in the end.
BELLY PHOTO HERE:
Payton at 10 weeks (Below 6.01.2010)
Baby #2 (Below 4.19.2012) Looks more like a gut than a baby... and I clearly need a tan! (and by the way my camera broke so ALL my photos will be taken with my iphone)
Should I compare pregnancys belly photos like I just did or do you think I should not compare the two? Let me know if you would like to see side by sides or not!
Have a great day!!!!
