Big Announcement

So I have some big news. We are having another baby. We have told family and friends and just a little while ago we announced on Facebook. Here is our announcement:


I was super nervous at first because Warren and his brother or sister will only be a little over a year apart. After a little thinking and talking with others I think the difference in age will be good. We are getting more and more excited about this bay as the days go by.

We have recently made some big decisions about this pregnancy and baby. I had a wonderful hospital birth with Warren. I was induced at 39 weeks and my labor was fairly easy. I did end up with an epidural, but all together it was a great experience and I don't regret any of it. This time I would like to have a more intimate pregnancy and birth, so I have decided to go with a midwife and have a home birth. We are on the search now for a midwife in our area and can't wait to get this process going. I will start blogging about the process and experience as well as life in general still, I just haven't decided how I am going to do it yet.

As of this week:

Trimester: 2nd
Week: 14
Baby is the size of a navel orange (4.5 in., 2 to 3 oz)
Weeks left: 25

I have an OB appointment tomorrow along with a meeting with our first midwife.

We haven't starting talking about baby names yet and probably won't until we find out gender

So far I haven't really had any cravings, but occasionally I will want something out of the ordinary. Usually that is just Taco Bell. 

I have had terrible morning sickness and it doesn't seem to want to go away just yet, but I am hoping for it to get better the further into the second trimester I get.

So far I have gained approximately 10 pounds.

I haven't taken any belly photos yet, but I will start this week and can't wait to compare them to my pregnancy with Warren.
