9 weeks down

How far along?  9 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: Still breaking even at 0lbs gained!
Maternity clothes? Yes and I am so glad that I bought some new tops at least I feel good about myself.
Stretch marks? my old ones.
Sleep: Still have to get up in the middle of the night and eat something and sometimes getting back to sleep is next to impossible!
Best moment this week: Getting sick in a public restroom and actually having a complete stranger ask you  if they can help you with anything. Seriously what are you going to do for me while I am in a stall? And if I let them come in their I am sure that they would have puked too seeing the underside of the toilet...seriously businesses need to take a little more pride and stay on top of their cleaning people! 
Movement: Nothing definite 
Food cravings: I seriously wish I didn't have to eat...i am so sick of looking at food. 
Gender: Only God knows. 
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.
Belly Button in or out? In and I will be in shock if it ever changes
What I miss: Not feeling like I have motion sickness on and off, especially on a car ride.
What I am looking forward to: Hearing that precious heartbeat in a few weeks at the doctor's
Weekly Wisdom: NEVER lift a public toilet seat with anything that you want to keep and be prepared to puke the moment it is up from the awful sight that you will see. 
Milestones: Even though the morning sickness has started I am still having days that I feel great so I will take it!

8 weeks

How far along?  8 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: Not yet!
Maternity clothes? Yup I completely caved. Don't get me wrong I can still fit into my normal clothes. However. for some reason I can not stand anything pressing, even slightly, on my belly, so I made the switch to maternity clothes
Stretch marks? my old ones.
Sleep: It has been decent with the exception of the 1230 wake up call to pee and then have to have a glass of milk or something on my stomach or I am up again about 130 feeling like I could be sick.
Best moment this week: Actually being able to take some sudafed and breathe through my nose!
Movement: I don't think so, though there were a couple times that made me go hmmm...but they say it is way to early to feel anything!
Food cravings: Not really. I am pretty sick of eating already
Gender: Only God knows. 
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Not feeling like I need a nap in the middle of the day.
What I am looking forward to: Just enjoying the next few weeks before our 1st real Doctors apt
Weekly Wisdom: Make sure you know why the Dr.'s want you to take certain test and if you think they are not necessary remember it is your body and your baby and don't be afraid to say no.
Milestones: 1st apt scheduled for Aug 8th! Can not wait to hear this baby's heartbeat!

7 weeks along!

How far along?  7 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: No...I thought I went up a pound or so but it must have been water weight!
Maternity clothes? I don't need them, but I did pop into the maternity store and bought some new clothes. And Yes I am lounging in some at the house today because I haven't done laundry and they are comfy and I don't feel the best.
Stretch marks? my old ones.
Sleep: I seriously need a nap right now...but of course Noah is awake...maybe in a few hours. My workout really took a lot out of me.
Best moment this week: Actually feeling almost better after my allergy attack...now if the cough would just go fully away!
Movement: No
Food cravings: Salads....and I don't think it is making me feel very good today!
Gender: Only God knows. 
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Not having bathroom issues...enough said.
What I am looking forward to: Going to the doctor next Monday for the paperwork apt. And getting to discuss a few things and set up the first Doctor's apt...where we will hear the heart beat!
Weekly Wisdom: Lay down when your toddler lays down...because by the time you get tired, he is waking up!
Milestones: Everything is still going good as far as I can tell.

Baby #2 Week 6

How far along?  6 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: No, praise GOD!
Maternity clothes? Nope although I did pop into the maternity store to look and see if they still had the style of jeans I loved last pregnancy and it looks like a win! However they are about to get rid of their summer line and bring in Fall clothes so I might need to pick up an few things soon to have on hand since summer really doesn't end here!
Stretch marks? Only the ones I already had.
Sleep: It has gotten much better already 
Best moment this week: It has nothing to do with my pregnancy, but I actually started Noah's scrapbook!
Movement: No
Food cravings: Water
Gender: Only God knows. 
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Having a little bit more energy! and Not having my sinuses going haywire. 
What I am looking forward to: A reconfirmation that I am pregnant by hearing the baby's heartbeat. I am counting my lucky stars that I am not sick right now, but the lack of symptoms always makes you wonder too :)
Weekly Wisdom: Pray everyday about your little one. I feel that God listens and hears the desires of your heart. Of course everything is in His timing, and for His purpose. 
Milestones: Everything is still going good as far as I can tell.

Sleep: I made myself not nap yesterday and stay up later, and I feel like I slept much better! I didn't sleep any longer, but just better.

Gender: Only God knows. 
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.

Baby #2 is on the way! 4 weeks!

How far along?  By a doctors calculations we are 4 weeks and 2 days! Scary that I know the exact date this time!
Total weight gain/loss: I haven't gained anything yet thank goodness, but I am starting off heavier than I started off my pregnancy with Noah, so I really have to be careful!
Maternity clothes? Nope I can still fit into my normal tops and bottoms :)
Stretch marks? Only the ones that are left from my first pregnancy! This reminds me that I really do need to go buy some Vitamin E oil!
Sleep: Monday I didn't sleep well at all, but that is because I hadn't said anything to Wesley about possibly being pregnant. I woke up at 230am and took another HPT and it was positive. Probably not the best thing to do in the middle of the night as my mind went crazy aftewerds and I couldn't get back to sleep until almost 5am and a move to the couch! Since I told Wes, I have slept fine :)
Best moment this week: Seeing that 2nd oink line clearly on the test, and being able to see Wes' face as he read his anniversary card and realized we were expecting a 2nd baby!
Movement: No but lots of little cramps and some lower back pain already!
Food cravings: Not really. Salty things if I had to say something. funny thing is I really wanted potato chips on Sunday, which we never buy, and that is what I ate to help with the nausea when I was pregnant with Noah. Just odd timing I guess. Oh and salads have tasted especially good!
Gender: Time will tell and we will be happy with whoever God blesses us with. Part of me does hope for a girl though.
Labor Signs: Thankfully no.
Belly Button in or out? In....and if I follow the same pattern as last time it will be in my whole pregnancy!
What I miss: Nothing yet!
What I am looking forward to: Everything! it will be so different because I have been through it was before, but I imagine no 2 pregnancies are the same!
Weekly Wisdom: Never think that you won't get pregnant the first time you stop preventing it! It obviously only takes once!
Milestones: Finding out we are pregnant and making it "1 month" already....I have a feeling this pregnancy will feel like it is going faster than last time! Also having the blood test come back positive, since it came back negative when I was actually pregnant with Noah!!
