You always hear people, even the doctor, tell you that every pregnancy is different. Now 24 weeks in I can say that it is very true. While I was nauseous and exhausted with this one in the first trimester he did not make me throw up like Peyton did. I haven't been as swollen as fast. However I sure have had more braxton hicks and had them WAY sooner.
You also get bigger way faster.... this stomach of mine was hard to hide by the time I was 11 weeks!
Other things are easier. It has gone MUCH MUCH MUCH faster so far. I think you just don't have time to sit around and think about it all the time. You have a little toddler who needs your attention and really doesn't care that you are pregnant. Plus even though it is different you generally know what to expect .Every week and every baby appointment isn't a surprise. I even know what to expect next time with the nasty glucose drink!
One thing that is different this time is that I know with about as much certainty as possible that he will be born June 6th. Planned C-Sections are a bit surreal. While it is normal to schedule a surgery it isn't as normal to know the date and time your son will be born. That is definitely different.
So school will end and a week later our little boy will be here. 15 weeks from today we will have two children to keep up with! At least we can still go man-to-man! ha!
