Baby Humble #2: 1st Trimester

The first trimester for me with baby #2 was pretty much identical to my first pregnancy and overall fairly smooth. I felt really tired a lot early on and had only 1 week of nausea right at the beginning. I had some more minor aches and pains then the first time around but I attribute it to the fact that I've had to chase around a baby this time and can't just relax and rest all day like I could previously. I've heard so many people say that you start showing a lot earlier with other pregnancies after you've had 1 baby but I didn't notice any difference in size/belly bump during my first trimester. I'm so blessed and thankful that the first trimester wasn't any worse!


4-5 Weeks - At 4 weeks I had a positive home test. At 5 weeks I had morning sickness off and on for a week but never got sick. I was also exhausted all the time.

6-8 Weeks - During this time things stayed the same and I was just overly tired and napped often.

9-10 Weeks - At what we thought was 9 weeks I had my first Dr appointment and ultrasound. Due to baby's measurements they changed my due date up 1 week and I was officially 10 weeks now. Baby's heart rate was 167.

11-13 Weeks - At 11 weeks I had another ultrasound. Baby was super active, kicking and moving a bunch. Baby's heart rate was read at 174 & 177. At 12-13 weeks I started getting some more energy back but was still tried.
