To me, my dear Rebekkah has changed so much in the last year....I had to look at last years school picture, compared to this years....(Abby won't get her picture until tomorrow, I'll have to do the same thing with hers when I get it!) She just looks so much more mature, grown up...sniff, sniff

Hmmmmm...who's watching this kid???!!!!!
And in pregnancy news...mommy is feeling MUCH better...especially since I started eating more!!! I met with my midwife last week and we talked about A LOT of stuff...mainly my yuckiness and my dizzy spells I've been having. I was instructed to EAT MORE...and I discovered by eating something between 8 and 9pm...my mornings are then a LOT better and I haven't been having any dizzy spells! yay!!! It's been a little hard on my "mind" to realize that it's okay to eat so late...but if it's going to make things easier on my body AND the baby, then I've gotta do it.
Despite what many might think...my tummy IS Getting bigger and I felt the baby move for the first time last Saturday!!! My weight gain to date: 1.5 pounds!! (Not really enough considering I'm in my 4th month...hence, the eating more thing again!!!) In other good news, I spoke with my midwife about breastfeeding and she said that just because it hasn't worked for me in the past, doesn't mean I won't get the milk in this time! I'm so happy...because it's what I REALLY want to do...so I'm reading a TON of books and looking forward to much milk supply to come! I want to give this baby the BEST possible options out there, and breastmilk is the only way! So, I hope that it will work out for me and the little one.Also, for those who have asked when we are going to find out what the "baby" is...I don't know!! We don't know for sure if we ARE going to find out....but will keep you posted if we end up having the ultrasound!!!

awww....little rebekkah!
and HOLY FATTY BATMAN!! ease up on the pics of yourself!!
as for B.F. i didn't w/ brendon(he wouldn't) but kiersten was a champ, raegan was still cake, but not as easy as K was...so there is HOPE! but i could feed a city, so i'm no help there... tmi..sorry!
and i'm glad you're feeling better, and i know i give you grief about it, but i know you suffer as much as the rest (if not more in some areas) and just bcz you don't gain a ton of weight doesn't mean you don't feel sick or have pains..we learned this together w/ our last 2. i love you & wish i was doing it w/ you a 4th time!
peace homey brotha!
I remember with Abbey you were instructed to have a milkshake every day. Drink up! I am glad you are feeling better. Being sick is no fun especially when you run the roost.
Wow! She has grown up a ton in the last year! She is a cutie pie.
Glad you are feeling better! I wasn't very successful with my first 4 babies at nursing. #5 went till 9 months! (Only took me 5 kids to get the hang of it:)
It's amazing how fast kids grow and change...
And, you'll need to continue to eat more for breastfeeding. It's good you have a midwife who will help you through it. You'll get it, just be sure you EAT EAT EAT to ensure a healthy baby and healthy milk!! (and let go of the guilt...your baby will be sucking calories out of you so fast--breastfeeding is mostly how I lost my 50 extra pounds each pregnancy, while still eating like a horse!) =)
Also, the first time i was too skinny, I was getting up in the middle of the night to EAT. Listen to your body, it will tell you what it needs.
i told you to eat more!! lol
well i do see a little baby bump..yay.. and if you need any tips on the bf im here for ya
glad you'll be able to eat more and feel better. your lucky cause most gals hear, "sorry, ma'm, you really don't need to eat THAT much food!" does eating little snacks (before you get feeling too sick) thruout the day help with the nausea/dizziness? just a thought... a chocolate milkshake is sounding very good to me right now!
I hope you are kidding only 1.5 pounds are you serious, by the look of your picture you are....Not fair. On the school pictures I agree she looks so old. She is beautiful. Lock her up!
I know what you mean about those kidos growing up. It's like trying to hang on to a 10 pound bag of sugar with out the bag---just slips through your fingers in no time.
You'll be great with #4. Sometimes I feel like I'm loosing my mind, but I just breath deap and lower my standards (claening/cooking) a bit and we all smile a bit more.
Ok, for being in your 4th month, you are sooo tiny. I swear, I'm already a huge cow when I'm as far along as you are! Way to look great!!! Ü
