Belly Pics

Today was my FIRST time doing belly pics of baby #2. I am 18 weeks exactly. My phone is memory card-less, due to the hubby taking mine and using it in HIS phone so therefore I had to use Stacey to get the job done. Lol (Don't judge me!)

So far I've only gained 3 pounds in this pregnancy and I'm 2 weeks shy of being half way there!! This pregnancy is definitely WAY different from my pregnancy with Rush, 2 main reasons include:

1. Nausea - with Rush I never got morning sickness and rarely felt nauseous, (hence me gaining weight from day ONE lol) - with THIS baby, my whole First Trimester was filled with Nausea! (hence me STILL only being able to gain 3 pounds!)

Yup, so that means the whole time we were home visiting this past summer, I did NOT care to eat anything. No poke. No kalbi. No bbq. No chinese. No L&L. No NOTHING. The ONE thing I did crave was Matsumoto's Shaved Ice! :) I loooooove their Lychee or Hawaiian Shaved Ice with a passion. I made sure to eat there as MANY times as possible before coming back to Washington. (No, I didNOT care that I had to drive to Hale'iwa just to get it.)

I also craved Laulau! That was the ONLY Hawaiian food I cared to eat :)

2. Fatigue - with Rush I slept ALLLLL the time. I swear that IS why I gained so much weight 'cause ALL I did was EAT.and.SLEEP. What a Life, huh?! LOL - with THIS baby, I have A LOT more energy!! I am able to wake up early and stay up almost the whole day with out taking a nap! If I [do] take a nap, it's no more than an hour and a half!

We SHOULD be finding out what we're having tomorrow so I will definitely Blog about that if we do. I am not getting my hopes up because with Rush, we weren't able to tell her sex until I was about 7 months because she always hid down there from the camera lol.
