Joys Of Pregnancy

So this pregnancy has been VERY different from the first. I went into preterm labor with Braxton at 32 weeks, but was able to control contractions and had him just 2 weeks early..that was a breeze compared to all the complications of this pregnancy and we aren't even done yet. I think I have honestly had every symptoms in the book and the new one I am experienceing is heartburn. I have found that drinking milk has been a huge help which is funny because milk use to be repulsive to me and now I cannot live without it. Lets just put it this way we go through atleast 2 gallons of milk a week. Even though the pregnancy in the beginning started off rough and really a little scary things have started to get much better. I am knocking on wood right now as we speak. Anyways I really am just trying to just enjoy being pregnant besides the whole getting bigger, finding it more and more uncomfortable to tie my shoes, and barley being able to breath a lot of the time. However, it is such a joy feeling this new life inside me and Braxton becoming more and more excited to meet his new sibling just makes it better. As far as cravings go I am obsessed with sweets and salt. I crave them both which is bad because neither one if the best thing for me. Its seriouly so bad though. For example, last night my mother-in-law made these killer pumpkin seeds with salt all over them. I started eating them and yelled at my husband for even putting them in my hands. I had to move them away from myself and then everytime I looked at them I was like a dog with salvia falling out on my mouth. It's soo horrible.

We are really in getting ready for baby mode. I have washed mostly everything and the nursery actually looks like a nursery. Of course it isn't finished and wont be completely until we find out what the baby is. We are sooo soo excited to meet this little one and know what it is. A lot of people think I am having a little girl because the pregnancy is so different from Braxton, but to be honest my gut still tells me it's another little boy. I really don't know why except for the fact that I think I am destined to have all boys. To be perfectly honest though I don't have a prefence what so ever. I look at Braxton and I just think I would for sure have another one of those, but it would also be great to have a little girl. At this point I know when we find out we are both going to be sooo overjoyed and we just want a healthy little baby. Can you tell I am so excited??

It will be here before we know it..
