It’s funny how so much changes from your first to your second pregnancy. When expecting Jameson, I documented every week diligently and took monthly bump photos that have been lovingly scrapbooked.
At 37 weeks, I’m pretty sure this is the first update I’ve written for this baby. Oops!
As for bump photos? I was laughing to my mom about the fact that I might have five or six photos on my phone. Honestly, even that number sounds a bit high.
I had heard from other moms that after your first pregnancy, the future ones fly by. Boy, were they not kidding!
Here I am, almost at the finish line of my second pregnancy and it feels like only last week I was finding out that I was expecting again.
I’m currently entering my second week of maternity leave, thanks to some back to back illnesses that caused my doctor to encourage an earlier rest period.
I’m finally packed and ready for our hospital stay and for Jameson to stay with our relatives while we’re at the hospital with the baby.
I’ve been able to do some fun stuff with Jameson to soak up these last days of him being an only child.
And my ankles have remained relatively un-swollen since I’ve been off from work, which is a real miracle in itself!
My scheduled C-section date is the 29th but I’m hoping this little guy decides to make his appearance before then. Jameson arrived at 38 weeks, so we will see!
I’m excited, I’m ready, and probably as rested as I’ll ever be, so I can’t wait to welcome baby number two into our family.
