"Christian, do you want a Baby?"
"yAsh" with a big smile as he's playing on his train table.
"Do you love baby?"
"yAsh"
"Are you going to be nice to baby?"
"yAsh"
Yep...we're having a baby~! It's exciting and exhausting all at the same time. I'll go more into details in a little bit. Here's the continuation of our conversation -
"Do you want baby boy or baby girl?"
thinks about it.. and says, "beby guh-rl"
"Christian, where is baby?"
Points to my stomach and replies, "dere!"
"Can you give baby a kiss?"
Walks towards me and instead, pulls down my dress and points at my boobs and yells out, "boobies! boobies!...mommy boobies!" as he's trying to closely examine my nipple.
"Yes, love...those are mommy's boobies...now give baby a kiss"
He leans in and gives a sweet kiss on my stomach and smiles. =)
***************
3 more weeks and I'll be in my 2nd trimester... I don't remember the 1st trimester going by this fast the first time. Time seriously flies.
FAQs that ppl seem to ask when they find out I'm pregnant:
How do you feel? Are you excited?
Of course, it's exciting BUT I'm sooooo tired this time around, it's unbelievable. Just sitting upright is a task for me. In the mornings, I have maybe 3 hours of energy before I completely burn out for the day. Even a nap doesn't help.
Do you have morning sickness?
I did have a bad bout for about a week...I threw up some here and there, I had terrible, TERRIBLE acid reflux / heartburn, I'm suffering from both constipation & diarrhea... and mood swings are at FULL FORCE. I actually had a tinge of resentment towards this kid when I was at my peak of miserableness. I kept saying to Ben, "I don't like this pregnancy, Christian was such a good baby inside my belly - I didn't feel sick and I loooved being pregnant. I don't like this one so far."
Do you want a boy or a girl?
Even before I met Ben, I've always known I wanted 2 boys. Then, Ben said he wanted a girl so we decided we'd have 2 boys and 1 girl...in that order. Now, after raising a boy for 2 years, I'm kinda wanting a girl - to balance out all the testosterone in the family. BUT, I'm 99.5% sure that we're having a boy. I can just feel it - he's a boy. I see my future and I can't picture a girl - I picture 2 boys. I think I already have a boy name picked out. I did have a girl name picked out years ago, but I don't know that I love it anymore. But I'm not even going to look into girl names because I just know, this little miracle inside of me is a boy.
How far along are you?
I'm about 10 weeks. Baby is about 1 1/2 inches long. He's even already moving his little arm buds and legs. Christian went with me to the ultrasound and he saw everything. He insisted that he saw Baby's teeth and they were big. It's the most awesome feeling to experience this process with your child. Ben couldn't come with us because he couldn't skip out of work. So, I decided to record it on my little camera so he could watch the ultrasound on the computer. Unfortunately, dumbass me (i blame it on the pregnancy ... lack of oxygen to your brain = dumbass maneuvers) didn't push the button all the way to record and was holding a camera in front of the ultrasound screen for no reason at all. *sigh* At least Christian got to see it... =)

What a cutie Christian is kissing your tummy. I don't know about pointing at your boobies though... hmm.. He seems like a boob man for sure! So many things are happening down there, I have to make a trip down there soon! Keep updating okay!
by the way, how you so sure you having a boy? I guess the mother's intuition is really strong! Oh also, I felt the same resentment when I was preggers with Josie because I was sick all the time! totally normal.
Hi Lucy~! Thank you~~
We only tried once - i pee'd on an ovulation stick and happened to be ovulation so we tried and bam, 2 weeks later, found out i was pregnant! lol... i guess it was just meant to be.
and i don't know why but i just know we're having a boy. i can just totally feel it. but i'm secretly kind of, not really, but maybe a little, hoping i'm wrong. =P
oops, i meant I happened to be ovulating not ovulation. lol...
