My little secret...

I tried to keep it hidden , but I went from This

To This, in less than 2 weeks

because of THIS

If I look like crap in the 2nd picture, it's because I feel like crap:) BUT the day before I didn't even comb my hair, so this is progress.

Burning questions you all want to know...

Did you plan on having yet ANOTHER kid? Yes, it was planned and scheduled to the day as a matter of fact:) If you think the world doesn't need another Sterzer kid...too late now isn't it:)

When is your due date and why are you so HUGE already?
My due date is March 28th and that makes me 9 1/2 weeks (yes, that extra half means a lot to me:). Although the baby is the size of a grape right now my uterus is a planner like me and is getting ready for a bigger baby:) They say you show earlier with the more babies you have...but I showed pretty early with my first.

How are you FEELING with this pregnancy? Did I mention the word crap earlier? That sums it up:) In the beginning I was very particular about my food. Now the nausea seems to be increasing as I go, and it's friend the migraine has joined the party. Nothing drastic, I shouldn't complain. I feel like throwing up, but I have never thrown up more than a handful of times in my life. I am exhausted and get random headaches, but most days I can function. I also have a almost 6 year old that is a great nurse and babysitter. I DO enjoy being pregnant but I vote this is the worst stage---you feel crappy, and you don't get the bonding quite yet of something moving inside you. It also feels like the baby is never going to get here...

Why did you want to keep it a SECRET in the first place?
I still can't figure out in my head why I wanted to keep it to myself. Rob said it must just be irrational thinking of a pregnant lady:) Since I had my last pregnancy people around me have had babies with health problems, miscarriages, and my nephew was born stillborn. I guess I am scared what the next 9 mths will bring. Then I read my pregnancy journals of the 1st 3 and I am starting to remember the different problems and pains I had, that I am not looking forward too. Especially the bedrest of the last one. I still have SOOO long to go so if I don't admit I am pregnant than maybe it will go by faster. There are also people in my life who want a baby right now and can't, so I didn't want to be the one to "rub it in". Besides all that, my body had other ideas. It only gets much bigger from here....
