Here is a little update on life in the
land of Lewy…
Jason is back at Momentum, thankfully,
and doing well. He has been given more duties and has opportunities to go into
management. Best of all, he is only 15 minutes from home now. Such good news
considering he is close to Jaxon during the day, if needed and will be super
close for when baby arrives. Regardless of where he is, he adapts to the
environment and has such good character and personality that he connects and
makes clients out of strangers. I am so proud of him!
Jaxon is so smart! He talks so well,
learning new words seemingly every day and we have full on conversations with
him. Coherent, intelligible conversations. It’s adorable and exiting. We really
haven’t broached the subject of baby again with him, we have plenty of time,
although since I am showing now, I am waiting for the questions to roll in. I
think he will be an excellent big brother. But considering how darn loved and
spoiled with attention he is, I think it will take some adjustment.
I am officially 4 months pregnant, 16
weeks now. Baby is the size of an avocado and the best purchase for a pregnant
mom with previous losses is a Sonoline B home fetal Doppler. Since I don’t feel
baby yet (well, I do- but so few and far between that I don’t really count it
yet) I can plop that wand on my tummy at night, hear his/her heartbeat and
sleep peacefully. I am showing now- I have a decent bump going. I think it is
safe to say that I look pregnant and no longer question if I had too many
donuts and beer. My energy level is not what it used to be, at all, and I am
pretty bummed about that. No matter what time I got to bed at night (which has
been earlier and earlier lately) I don’t seem to get enough rest to feel like I
can take on the world. Since I have several weeks into the 2nd
trimester, I have basically accepted that I am not going to get my energy back
this time. My morning sickness (LMAO- all day sickness) is much better,
but still hanging around. At this point, I don’t expect it to go away either,
but I am truly thankful for those days when it stays at bay or just barely
shows up.
Maxi skirts and linen pants are my best
friend right now. Oh, and yoga pants. Love yoga pants! I am all about comfort
and haven’t even attempted to try to reason with my fashion sense. I have
scarves and sweaters tucked away for fall and winter seasons- so, I will worry
about my prego-fashion at that point and focus on staying comfy and cool for
now. Although, I have gotten compliments recently on my outfits, so I guess I
am doing something right!
I am utterly thankful that I am experiencing
my 1st and 2nd trimester during summer and early fall
because the heat is awful and I could not imagine being 7-9 months pregnant
right now! Ugh! I give tons of credit to all the ladies that do it- I am
thankful for my early summer baby and my current pregnancy with a Spring baby!
I will have many more updates over the
next several weeks.
Xoxo- Ladylewy
