I mentioned briefly on here that I am pregnant. This means another baby. What I didn't mention is that I'm secretly freaking out because my first baby is, well, STILL A BABY. He still has these skinny legs and knobby knees and tiny arms. I am finding it so hard to understand that soon he won't be the baby anymore, instead he will be moved up to big brother. At least he will hold the title of first born.
I am so shocked to even be pregnant. I think I am so shocked I haven't really accepted it all yet and had a chance to get fully excited about it. Rob and I were trying, this was something we wanted, I guess I just never expected my body to make it happen after only two months. I think I was more prepared for for another long drawn out "trying" phase. I guess I expected a bunch more trips to the fertility doctor, and watching everyone else around me get pregnant. I also thought since i had so much time I didn't even need to address the fact that my little boy is still a teeny baby himself.
There are other things on my mind.
Like how am I seriously supposed to get my son out of my bed in time for the new baby? He has a bed, and when he isn't sick (which is every day) he sleeps in there for a few hours.
Also, will one crying baby wake up a sleeping baby?
Will Brandon really beat on his new sibling?
How do I make it a girl?
Will my boobs get big again? They are now little tiny pancakes. More like deflated balloons that are squishy like they are full of pudding and a mixture of cottage cheese and stretch marks.
Is it possible to maintain a healthy lifestyle? I've only known I was pregnant for 4 days and I'm already sad I left the highly processed bright yellow spicy cheese dip at home. Instead opting for the healthy hummus and celery.
How long will I be able to balance on my bicycle?
If pregnancy gives you baby brains and parenting gives you mommy brains then what the fuck is going to be left of my brains?

I want to ask: if your boobs are deflated pancakes what are mine? Huh!
Katie
Hmm...
Well, I guess you have your work cut out for you over the next 8 months or so, huh?
I think it is definitely possible to maintain a healthy lifestyle while pregnant, but then again, keep in mind that I have never been pregnant, therefore I really have no fucking clue what I am talking about!
Good luck nonetheless!
