Mommy’s Dress: Norma Kamali Gown / Madeline’s Dress: Carter’s Heart Bow Dress
Baby #2 is on his or her way and we couldn’t be more excited! We feel very lucky and are so grateful to be pregnant again so soon after Madeline. My husband, Brandon, and I really wanted Madeline to have a sibling close in age. They will be 20 months apart — not exactly Irish twins, but we will have 2 under 2 in the house!
Answering your questions….
How far along are you?
I’m officially 16 weeks pregnant!
How are you feeling/ How is your second pregnancy different than your first so far?
Honestly, I have been pretty sick unfortunately. Nauseas all the time and beyond exhausted! So tired that I have been napping up to 3 times a day! (No I am not kidding!) The nausea is real and I have been on two medications, but unfortunately neither of them are making me feel much better.
I was hopeful that when I entered the second trimester I would feel a lot better, but with my first pregnancy with Madeline I was sick throughout the entire pregnancy as well. Although it’s no fun to be sick, I feel so blessed to be pregnant again and I am just dealing with it best as I can.
Is Madeline excited?
I would like to think she is, but she’s not talking a whole lot yet. I will say “baby” and point at my belly and she’ll just stare with a big grin… it’s the cutest thing. She just started saying “momma” a few weeks ago and it nearly melted my heart, so soon enough she’ll be saying baby… and I’m sure she’ll be showing her little sister or brother who’s boss! lol
Will you be finding out the gender?
Yes! We did the harmony test which is a blood test that looks for genetic disorders and also tells you the gender of the baby. As cheesy as it sounds, as long as the baby is healthy I would be happy with either a boy or a girl. Once we find out, we’ll be doing a small family gender reveal and I cannot wait to share the news with you all!
