Pregnancy # 2 so far...

...is a challenge!! I have never been so nauseated in my life!!! Yesterday was the worst day so far. I was hoping for a repeat of Brooke's pregnancy but no such luck! I so wish I would have had the nausea with Brooke and not with this one. It's so hard feeling this way while taking care of a 1 year old. ( I know Kelly knows what I'm talking about!!) Aside from the sick feeling and bathroom breaks every 30 mins, everything is going good. I'll see the Dr. next Wednesday and make sure there's only one in there. I'm upset that Jeff won't be there due to combat training at work! I tried to reschedule but they are so booked I'd have to wait until mid Feb to see a doctor and I don't want to wait that long. I'll let you guys know what they say next week.
On a different note I want to thank Jeff for being incredibly helpful the last couple weeks. He started in Florida giving Brooke baths every night as has continued to do so since we've been home. It's already so uncomfortable for me to bend over and bath her and he has continued to do it without complaint. He had stepped up with this pregnancy so much and I can thank him enough!!!
Thank you Jeff, Love you!!!

Hey Sista...I very much sympathize with you...but as you well know the hard work during pregnancy is soooo worth it when you see that beautiful baby at 9mos! :) And, as awful as all my pregnancies were, I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I had an ounce more sanity in me :) Growing a baby inside me is by far the greatest miracle I've ever been a part of! And I must say that unfortunately with every passing pregnancy my nausea got worse and worse. Actually Dylan's pregnancy was my best...many people I know swear that boys come with less nausea (due to less estrogen?). Anyway...I've heard it both ways though...some are more nauseous with boys...so maybe that will be your case (hope so!) :) Though I can't help but think you'll carry in the Steg and McC tradition and have girl-girl-boy! :) And I also would love for Brooke to experience a sister...I just love all my girls...and my wild boy in the mix. I'm excited for you and to meet this new niece/nephew of mine! Hang in there!
