Thanks for all the congrats and well wishes, readers. Big B and I are very excited. :)I found out a few weeks ago; I’m not very far along, only about 7 weeks. Thing #2 is only the size of a blueberry, and consequently, makes eating blueberries impossible. I was going to try to wait till I was out of my first trimester to tell everybody, but let’s be honest, I’ve been consumed with thoughts of my pregnancy, and of being sick due to the pregnancy, and I haven’t had anything else to blog about as a result. My chances of miscarrying are quite slim now, (about 5%) so I figure I’m pretty safe.
We’re excited to finally be pregnant again, but I’m thinking it’s kind of lame how sick I feel. With Cade, I swear it wasn’t quite so intense all the time. My morning sickness is worse; I pee like Seabiscuit, and don’t even get me started on how badly my breasticles hurt. SERIOUSLY if you even look at them in a hostile way they will start to ache. Be gentle with them, Big B sure has to haha.
Also, I cry a lot more, and tend to lose it when small children crap their pants. And I’m hungry. Like, ravenous. This is an entirely good thing, I realize. I am partaking, don’t you worry.
No one else can tell yet, but I can totally tell I’m getting a baby bump – Brandon can too. My tummy isn’t quite so flat…it’s getting a bit rounded, and I’m shocked at how fast it’s coming and also I was looking at maternity clothes online and wanted to puke and/or cry because I can’t believe I’m going to have to start sporting said clothes in the near future. I’m going to look tent-like. But I’m ready, it’ll be good. Right? I'm not fat, I'm pregnant!So there it is. If anybody knows where I can buy long maternity jeans, give me a holler. I need at least a 35 ½” inseam, and for real freaking out because I can’t find any that’ll fit my stems. I might have to pull a Juno and have my mom sew an elastic band into my jeans. Just kidding, I’d never ruin my beautiful designer jeans in that manner!!
P.S. I just threw up my blueberry muffin poptarts. DO NOT PARTAKE OF BLUEBERRY POPTARTS while you are pregnant. Gross. And I even had to do it at the public bathroom at work and get my face all close to the toilet and stuff…icky icky. And it was blue. I mean my vomit. Crap. Now I’m hungry again. Suck what should I eat? The vending machines? Take out? Will my boss let me leave to procure food before I turn into Momzilla and eat HIM? The dilemmas, the dilemmas…moan groan lament wail gnash teeth cry. Sigh.

Wow. You are really feeling it! I hope the throw-up feelings go away soon. My friend who was throwing up so much had really bad electrolytes b/c of it, and her doc put her on some pregnancy-safe anti-nausea meds. If it's bad enough, I'm sure you could look into that.
When you mentioned blueberry muffin poptarts I laughed cuz while I was reading this I was actually eating a blueberry pop tart (not sure what the muffin thing is though). I liked it. But prob. not if I was prego. T and I will start soon. Keep us posted on what's going on, it's funny reading your posts!

I've heard ginger tea helps with nausea but I could never stomach it. If it gets too bad you can always get the fenigrin (sp?) shots. I am so excited for you, and maybe a teeny bit jealous! I want to be prego too, only with out the vomiting part. Good luck!
Congrats!! I'd try Old Navy for pants they have long. But def try them on cause I swear every pair has a diff inseam (and DONT dry them!) Also I found a random pair at Kohls that was long enough. And I have heard that store A Pea in a Pod in Gateway has super cute long designer jeans. I was too cheap to justify spending 100$ on jeans that I'd wear for a few months! Good luck :)
I giggled when you said, 'What should I eat? The vending machines?' because I had a mental image of someone trying to eat a vending machine.
You always show quicker with the second then with the first being that your uterus is already streched out and stuff...my third well you could tell by week 5...I swear...hope you feel better soon the pukeys suck... but youll get through it and just think what you will have in 8 months...a little GIRL...heres to hopeful wishing for you...
Love, Z
Congrats!
Motherhood has some great pants - and they are L-O-N-G! Wish I would have saved mine - they would have fit you perfectly.
Brie, that it the cutest and sweetest pic of C. Oh he will love that someday. BTW i can't even think about your blueberry pop tart so.... I had to read it all real quick! Love to you.
My brain isn't functioning normally tonight so for now, i send hugs and a note to let you know I was here :) xox
This is all so exciting, Brie. Can't wait to follow along with your story!! Congrats a million times. xoxo
Yeah!!! So fun. I think you have longer legs than me. I did find a really cute pair of jeans at Motherhood...BUT...even though I may be slightly taller, I have a freakishly long torso, with not so long of legs. You could at least try there. I am lucky I was prego all through the hot, humid summer cause the thought of wearing jeans made me wanna puke! My tall sister-in-law found hers at gap, but I never could! Good luck!!
Mister Cade looks so big in this picture! Has he outgrown his Cars boots yet? I'm guessing yes!

Hey, congrats! Sorry I completely missed the announcement, and sort of the update, but yay! Boo on the sick though. Hope you feel better soon.
