14 weeks and counting!

I am 14 weeks pregnant now! Yay! Just one week closer to meeting baby M and one week closer to not being pregnant anymore! HA!

This pregnancy has been much harder than my previous. I still have morning sickness, I'm tired, and I have insomnia. Yup. The past few nights I have woken up at 1am and can't fall back asleep. I am really starting to pop too. I had a little belly with Cailin around now so I assumed I would pop a bit sooner but I am grateful I can still wear my normal pants! I hate shopping for maternity clothes but I am really glad to be in the second trimester now! I had the oddest craving for Pringles today. I can't even remember the last time I had those! Im also craving a martini but that is not going to happen! I remember whenI was pregnant with Cailin I really want a raspberry Stoli and sprite. Also random.

Our fetal anatomy scan is in a few weeks and I can't wait to see our little babe on the big screen again!

I went to the consignment store and sold my breast pump and got Cailin a cute summer dress and the new baby a nice Peg Perrego carseat. I don't think the one we had before is super safe so this Peg Perrego one is a more top of the line model. I still have a $10 credit over there which I am sure will go to good use later. One thing I am thinking of doing differently is formula feeding from the beginning. Sometimes I feel bad that I didn't continue to breast feed Cailin after 3 months but she did not like breast milk at all. I also found it very depressing and isolating. I really wanted to breast feed but I think it is just too much for me to deal with. It did get better as time went one but it never got to the point where I enjoyed it or it came naturally to me. Starting with formula isn't ideal but I might actually enjoy the first few months this time around which is more valuable to me than anything.

Sometimes I get a little scared of having two kiddos, especially under 2! YIKES! Cailin loves other kids but we are both into a good solid routine that I am a little apprehensive that having the new baby will rock the boat for her. It is super important for her feedings to be the same and that she still sleeps through the night. Another thing I am nervous about is getting the new baby's nap schedule down. I was never able to get Cailin on a nap schedule but her daycare got her in a solid nap routine in a week. So if all else fails he or she will be on a nap schedule when I go back to work around Thanksgiving time. Hopefully I can do it myself though!

Cailin survived the stomach bug last week but now she has a cold... BOOOO! Yesterday I got a call at work from daycare saying she was super stuffy, coughing, and came down with a fever of 101. I picked her up and zipped over to the doc's and luckily she checked out ok. Her fever had already gone down to 99.8 and she had not been given any medication.  Also, she has three teeth now; her two bottom central incisors and her upper left lateral incisor. Random but its there.
