I am PREGNANT Round TWO!!!!

I am Pregnant Round TWO!!!

So September 27th We found out we are expecting Baby Dunham Number Two!!!

We are both super excited!!

Around the 20th I started to feel Funky just not well, I didn’t think I was pregnant but I wasn’t for sure!

I took a cheapo pregnancy test from amazon in the morning and I read it and it was negative so I went on with my day later that day I went to the bathroom and looked at it and see the faint line! freaked out I took another test and another faint line… Freaked out I turned to Thomas then we went to CVS and got a first response test and came home and took the test. I turned the test over and waited the 3 minutes I was so scared to look at it!!! after the timer went off I looked and it was SUPER positive! 

I was so scared due to my past yet so happy to have another baby!!! Turns out I am 6 weeks and 4 days based on my last period but I go in for an Ultrasound to see exactly how far along I am!!!!

THINK PINK!!!!! 

If It’s a Girl it will be our LAST pregnancy!!!

Thats all for now! Ill update with pictures soon

Five thing's I'd tell my Pregnant self!

So I wrote this after I had Hixson but it got lost somewhere so now that I am pregnant I’ll do it again!!

FIVE things I’d tell my pregnant self 

#1 Don’t be scared to express your feelings!!!

At the end of my pregnancy with H I was scared to admit to anyone including myself I was scared.

I was uncomfortable with some things and I wish I had expressed myself maybe thing would have went differently.

#2 Relax and pamper my self! 

I wish I had went and got Prenatal messages or pedicures more, Had some me time and use more moisturizer. At the end my skin was so dry and itchy and I hope to advoid that this time!  

#3 Be more consistent in things that are important! With H I wanted to do weekly pictures, I wanted to drink a lot of water, I wanted to take professional pictures and I never did!

#4 Be comfortable In all things!!! Clothes,shoes,bras,sleeping and sleep 

I refused to buy Clothes for my pregnancy because I didn’t “Need” Them! I didn’t want to buy clothes that I wouldn’t wear that long!! Not this time!!

#5 prepare for the unexpected..

this time I hope for an unmedicated natural delivery but at the same time I want to prepare for the unexpected!
I wanted a natural birth with H and ended up with a c section and wasn’t mentally prepared for it! 

and for a bonus one!

#6 Take Pictures while in labor!!! We have NO pictures of me in labor or in the operation room and that is honestly one of the hardest things in the world!! I feel like I got robbed that Beautiful moments of seeing my son for the first time and that moment between Thomas and I when we became a family of 3!!

 now that I just cried my eyes out writing number 6 I think I think I am done here! 

What is something you would tell your pregnant self?
