Finding Out I’m Pregnant with Baby #2
I was so scared when I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child, I took pregnancy test after pregnancy test and they were all negative for weeks. My husband and I were not actively trying but we knew we wanted another child sooner than later. They say there is no perfect time to have a baby, well its the same for a 2nd baby. Your never really ready. I was having no symptoms but still never got my period. I assumed I wasn’t pregnant because the test were negative. Finally I was at Target and I was with my mom and told her my situation and she told me “you are so pregnant”, I told her I took like 10 pregnancy tests. I bought one and went home and took one while my husband was in the living room. Sure enough I was pregnant. I honestly never have had a hard time getting pregnant. I know I am so blessed for that. For my toddler I got off birth control and within a month I was pregnant and for my little one it took a couple months after I was off the pill.
My first pregnancy was a breeze, no morning sickness or anything to complain about. I cant say that about the delivery, which I will get into later on in another post when I do my birth story. My 2nd pregnancy was the same, it was even easier, no morning sickness, no complaints it was another breeze of a pregnancy. So I figured I was having another boy.
We were excited but afraid , but having two kids under two, was very scary thought. My first thought was I want a girl, but that didn’t happen. Yup another boy. To be honest I had a Mommy downer moment at the 4D ultrasound gender reveal after I found out my baby was a boy. But I got over that real fast. I know I was blessed to be having a second baby. I know I was blessed to be having a baby at all. But I did have a moment that’s for sure.
The bright side of having another boy is you don’t have to change your views. I didn’t have to change my way of thinking of having another boy, I had clothes, baby gear and the mind of a crazy boy mom already so yes I’m winning. Having boys is so fun. My toddler is at a fun age, yes terrible twos, but I love how he’s talking now, his imagination and his amazing spirit.
Fast forward to having both my boys, It was a huge adjustment but the best thing ever. I can’t imagine having a little girl in the mix. Maybe sometime in the future but I can’t imagine not having my boys. I don’t see myself without these these little men. It’s a feeling like no other. I love being a Crazy Boy Mama.
