Thanks to some of you (ahem aunt donna!) who have been begging for the updates on baby number 2, here you go.... I guess I feel like I'm too tired and busy chasing around number 1 to do this every week. I do want to have this documented for the future though :)
Without further ado, I present you with the (somewhat) weekly pregnancy updates...
November 17-23, 2012
Weight Gain: none yet, I have actually lost quite a bit of weight- near 10lbs
Maternity Clothes : none yet
Sleep: I am sleeping great- no complaints here. I am still tired a ton... ready for that to be over. Right now I'm sleeping through the night.

Best Moment of this week:
Thanksgiving with all of my family! We spent the day in the mountains-- oh was it nice! And Miss Raleigh Grace got baptized, that was probably the BEST!
Movement: nope
Food cravings: Sonic strawberry limeaids have been on my mind a lot lately but I haven't caved yet. Lance Salt & Vinegar WAVES chips! mmm. Fruit. Stadium nachos with cheese and jalapenos!
What I miss: ENERGY! and not feeling nauseous ... although I do believe both of those are starting to fade :)
Symptoms: HEADACHES!! oh my goodness! For the past couple of weeks I have had terrible headaches. Extra Strength Tylenol didn't even help a little. The only thing that has helped even a tiny bit (sometimes) is drinking soda. I talked to the dr. about this last week at my appointment and he wrote me a prescription (that I lost ha- go figure...) My neck has been super tight and sore too. I think a pre-natal massage is in the agenda for me soon!
Acne...on my face, collarbone/neck, and back.
Fatigue
Nausea and lacking an appetite.
Dizziness -- esp in the mornings (I know I'm not eating enough and probably not drinking enough water at night)
Gender: At first I really thought boy... now I'm starting to think girl-- seems like everyone I know that is pregnant with #2 is having the same gender as #1
What I'm looking forward to: Finding out the gender in a few weeks, feeling less nauseous and having an appetite and the fatigue disappearing !

| she discovered how to turn on the shower during her bath ;) too much fun!! :) |
PS- after looking back at my pregnancy with Miss RG it is erie how almost-identical it is this week with this pregnancy.
I really want to do the weekly updates too, but haven't started yet. I probably won't post them all, just keep them in my drafts and publish here and there. I wanted to do something cute this go around also, but just couldn't find a format I liked. Glad to hear you are sleeping great and hopefully the energy comes back soon.
