What the heck is that??


The day I popped out Nathan, I remember laying in the hospital, looking at him & thinking, well, when should we have the next one??  I have been teased by a sister in law about how easily I forget. Yup, I forget the day of.  So I started planning right then when the next was to come along. To make it at least 2 years in between Nathan & the next, we would start in May. 

So on May 6th, I saw the Doc to take out the bc. 3 weeks later, I started feeling it. Dizziness, nausea, a little more cranky than normal. Then some girlies thought it would be funny to give me a prego test for my birthday (thanks Natalie & Sharday!) So I took it, knowing what the results would be. Therefore, the purple line picture some of you were emailed. 

I think I'm only about 4 weeks along, but on Saturday morning at the Temple, I couldn't zip up my dress. I know I haven't gained back THAT much weight in the last month. I looked down, & my stomach was popping out. What the heck??  It seems that overnight my stomach let it all out. I think my body said, ok, so you're knocked up, let's let it all hang out. All my hard work on the abs gone in a night. I had to suck it in the next 2 hours. 

Even on Sunday, a very nice sister let me know she knew my secret. Said I was looking a little bit poochy. Thanks Laura!! It's not that often someone tells you that you look fat! It was funny.

So now I look like I'm 4 or 5 months pregnant instead of 4 or 5 weeks. Wonder what I'll look like at 7 months!!

Congratulations! I had no idea! Ah well, if you get sick, the next book in the vampire series is coming out soon. That'll take your mind off it.
LOL!! Oh by the way, this is Kristin Bassett, just so you don't wonder 'who in the heck?!"

At 7 months you'll look beautiful as you always look beautiful. Don't forget you want to come and visit. I could take care of your boys for a whole day and let you sit and throw up or sit and sleep or whatever your pregnant body demands. LOVE YOU Lovely!

Congrats on the pregnancy! And you look so cute. I'll have to see if I pop out earlier on my next one too.

Congratulations you brave, brave soul! I guess you'll have to change your stick family to include one more. (I ALWAYS popped at 4 weeks. It's pretty hard to keep my pregnancies a secret...that and all the weight I lose getting so sick.) Much happiness to you all!
