My BIG Announcement….

I’m PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pregnancy_test_result.jpg

I know, I know, it makes sense why I haven’t been blogging much lately! My head has been permanently attached to the toilet, my brain has been mush, and my eyes have been closed more then they have been open.  Early pregnancy does a number on me- one that I’m sure I’ll describe to you in detail during future blogs.

For now, let me fill you in on the details.

When did you know? I’ve known I was pregnant since Thanksgiving (Canadian Thanksgiving, that is) when my sister forced me to take a pregnancy test because I was a few weeks late.  I’ve suspected my pregnancy since the morning I went to put on a skirt I had worn less then a week earlier and it didn’t fit.  I KNEW I was pregnant from that moment (although I was only about 2 weeks pregnant at that point).

Was it planned? We weren’t really planning to have another baby this quickly.  I’m literally a walking proof that “we don’t need to use anything this time” is the dumbest thing I’ve ever accepted as fact:) The Boy will be exactly 2 years old when his brother or sister is born.  However, when I think about it, I can’t think of a better time to have another baby.  Screaming, tantrum-y toddler meet screaming, hungry baby.  Might as well get it all over with at one time, right? Truthfully though, I’m really happy to be pregnant again!

When are you due? As of right now, it looks like I’m due around June 10th (give or take a few days).  Right in time to miss exams (hurray) but also the week after my sister’s wedding (boo). 

Are you showing? I am a blimp. Enough said.

I’m so excited to share my pregnancy with all of you!!! I’ll be writing as UrbanMoms pregnancy blogger for the next 6 (or so) months! I may have been through this before, but I can already see how different this pregnancy is from my last and will need your help to get through it!  If I can ever get my head out of the toilet, that is…

    I’m SO happy for you!!!! Can’t wait to hear all the deets….get some dyclectin if you’re still barfing…saved my life! And don’t follow the old wives tale that it’s a girl if you’re so sick…I was dying for 7 months…and I have the boy of boys….WOOHOO for you guys!

  7. Sarah says

    CONGRATS!! We are in the same boat – I am due May 1. My first 17 weeks were brutal; I was miserably sick. Useless, really.
    Since you’ll be on mat leave, maybe we’ll finally be able to arrange a playdate!

  11. Amanda says

    Congrats! That is such great news. Two years apart is a little crazy at times (we’ve done it twice now) but nice to get it over with in one fell swoop! Wahoo!

  14. Becca says

    CONGRATULATIONS!!! 😀 So excited for you– there’s nothing better than a new baby! Ours are just over two years apart, too, and it’s hardest at first with a newborn and toddler… Once they started playing together, though, things around here got phenomenally easier. 😉 Ours are best friends, and I’m sure yours will be too! Congrats again!

  16. Jennifer says

    Congratulations!!! Fantastic news and I hope you’re feeling much better very soon.
    My sons are 25 months apart and I thought the timing was perfect.

  17. Nancy says

    How very wonderful!!! My children are 2 years apart and best friends- this is the best little Xmas gift for your little one. Just wonderful! Congratulations! nancy

  18. Chris says

    I am looking forward to them”…screaming, tantrum-y toddler meet screaming, hungry baby.” the most!

    I hope that your nausea & tiredness passes soon!
    It will be interesting to see the differences between your last pregnancy and this one!
