Thanks everyone! I'll admit I was hoping for a girl this time but I am just as happy knowing the little guy is healthy so far! I am just not looking forward to picking names. xd
valkyrie- The first time I heard the heartbeat this time around was at about 13 weeks. With Ethan it was later because I didn't have insurance at first so I went to the doctor kinda late.

Congrats Syll! I love having two boys, it's a lot of fun....most of the time! xd
When I heard the heartbeats, I was a little later, but that's because I have a retroverted uterus that makes it a little harder. You might be able to, I've heard anywhere from 8 weeks on.

Both my boys were around 12 weeks. But i got to see the heart beat for both around 8 or 9. My doctors do an 8 week trans vag sono just to make sure everything is looking good and that a heart beat is visible. Plus to put mommies at ease and to give the finality that yes there's a baby in there...eventhough it resembles more of a small dinosaur or lizard at that point. xd

Wow, it's interesting looking back at this thread. I posted here when I was pregnant with Zoe and while looking through it I realized that at almost 17 weeks, I wasn't showing as much as I am now at almost 7 weeks. So crazy!
I've had the same horrid head congestion that I had when I was pregnant last time. I wish it would go away. It's making life miserable. Also, my tummy is constantly icky-feeling. I'm not throwing up, thankfully, but awful churning tummy is much worse than last time. xp

Although I put on more weight that go around too. If you spent a day here you'd understand @_@ They were both sick this weekend and i was never so happy to see Eric get on his bus as i was this morning. XD I bought them each a sippy that THEY picked out and 2 minutes into the hour car ride they started going at it. I swear i wish there was a way to get them to be nice to eachother. They were beating eachother up with fake tools too. The baby is the instigator. He'll stand all cute against something and when his brother walks by he lunges at him and takes him down or his new thing is to launch anything he can get his hands on in the car at his brother. Be it a bottle, shoe sock, he even tore the shade of the window >.o . People keep calling him Stewie from family guy. His new running nickname is Damien for obvious reasons. Seriously though, how do you disipline a 10 and a half month old! We've tried time out, removing him, distracting him, explaing it to him but he just giggles and goes right back to it. gonk The other day while attacking his brother he missed and somehow got his thumb on the entertainment center. Iheard it make a wierd noise and slide ..turns out he actually tore his fingernail. While i'm trying to clean it and his brother is trying to be nice and give him a hug he kicked him in the head. My mom just says welcome to sibling rivalry but i refuse to believe that they CANT get along. I'm tellin ya i'm at my witt's end. >.>;; sorry i prolly shoulda posted this somewhere else but not sure where.

I'm not throwing up, thankfully, but awful churning tummy is much worse than last time. xp Three words "sudafed shower tabs". They are amazing. It's this disc that you toss onto the shower floor. The hot water activates it and it slowly disintegrates. It comes in nice smells like a minty or vanilla. They made me feel so much better if only for a bit. It totally clears out your head. Also i had the same tummy troubles the best thing i found was gatorade or propel water and saltines. I lived on em for months xD but hey it's worth it not to feel so icky. Hope it helps. Oh yeah duh i just remebered if you take vernors ginger ale and cut it with cranberry juice it's an awesome tummy fixer and good for the urinary tract! (the cranberry juice takes the bite out of the gingerale too. I know sometimes GA is so strong drinking it can make you feel worse.)

I used to drink Propel water all the time until I got pregnant, and then it made me sick. I haven't bought it again since, although I should see if I can get back into it again! I especially liked the Melon flavor.. dA fUnKy mOnKeY MysticfawN kmaritza I miss getting to take ibuprofen. Yeah, I totally needed ibuprofen for headaches and when I got the flu and ached all over! What a pain not being able to take it! Agreed and plain strength tylenol doesn't touch that pain. Exactly! Tylenol doesn't help me at all for anything but fevers.. neutral

Junior has started kicking my ribs!
xd
Just over 9 weeks to go.
3nodding
I had my baby shower on Sunday. Very overwhelming, so tired. I got to hold a little girl who was only a month old. She fell asleep on my chest, gave her mom a break for a while! And there was an adorable little boy who seemed to like me, so that was nice.

Awww, it's always nice to hold little ones while you're pregnant! *Not so much for the first couple weeks after you give birth razz *
Yes, we had a birthday party for Elly, she had a ton of fun smile She was the only little one there, aside from her 2 cousins that live with us, which was good!
My tummys been kind of weird this time around too, but first it was the flu, and now we're not sure if it's morning *well, all the time!* sickness, or just the heat, cause I feel fine when I sit in front of a fan.. or even better, when I stick my head out the car window when we're going 60!
Thankfully I don't miss IB profuen too much, I'm allergic to all things asprin, so I stick to Tylenol all the time razz

I wish I had some worth-while advice (you know, besides tying him up twisted ). We figured out why he has so much anger and frustration. I posted it in the main forum under my thread "moms and parents ect of special kids" or something of those lines. But the jist of it is that he may have cp. He's angry and frustrated because his brother can run and do stuff but he can't crawl/cruise without his right arm and leg spasming and sending him falling onto his head sweatdrop So when he see's his brother or us moving so freely he gets upset. plus there may be an "spectrum disorder" in play which the aggression seems to fit. I'm not sure why i was so suprosed since it all runs heavy in our family but sadly anymore babies for me is a big no. I'm a carrier so it will repeat in all my kids. And yes tieing him up has crossed our minds xd
