5 weeks 2 days pregnant

We found out on Friday, April 8th that we were pregnant again! I had taken a test on Wednesday which came up negative...or so I thought. I had thrown the hpt in my bathroom cabinet without giving it another thought. On Friday, I was cleaning out the cabinet and noticed a very faint line. I decided to take another test and it came back very faint. So, that night when Chris, Garrett and I went out to eat, I decided we needed to stop by Walgreens so I could pick up a First Response Early Response pregnancy test. Later that evening I took one since we had bought a 3 pack. Sure enough, a dark line came up! We were ecstatic! Well, I was, Chris was shocked and a little overwhelmed. I remember the roles were reversed when we found out with Garrett that we were pregnant (I was shocked and he was ecstatic)! That's ok, because now we are both ready for this next chapter of our lives.

I decided to try and take weekly pictures of my belly. We'll see if that actually happens though! LOL! This one was taken Sunday night. It looks like I'm carrying this baby in my butt! I love my ghetto butt though.


5 weeks pregnant

Garrett really doesn't know what being a big brother is all about. He's only 21 months for Pete's sake, so how can we expect him to understand that his little world is about to change. I'm excited about this new bundle of joy while feeling guilty because he is not going to be the only child anymore. I cannot imagine how I will love this little one as much as him. I mean he was my first-born, the one who called me mommy first. I just trust that others are right when they say that you will love them just the same! (Ok, I need to stop, or I'll be crying over here!)

My only symptoms so far is fatigue. This morning I awoke with a little nausea, but nothing like with Garrett. I lost 10 lbs. with him in one month alone. I pray that doesn't happen this time around.
