Baby Shepard

So we found out we are expecting another little one about a week before Christmas. It was a bit of a shock, but we are excited none the less. I mainly started this blog so I can document the differences between this pregnancy and my pregnancy with Dylan. Tomorrow I will be 8 weeks along and so far a lot is different. With Dylan, I didn't start feeling sick until shortly after 8 weeks. This time I started feeling sick around 5 1/2 weeks. The nausea is overwhelming. With Dylan I felt sick, got sick, and moved on. This time I feel sick all the time and so far have only had two visits to the bathroom. Also, I am exhausted. I feel like I'm on a newborn schedule. I eat, sleep for two hours, eat, and repeat pretty much all day. I can't stay up after I eat or I feel too sick. I have to lay down and wait for it to subside. They say girls are worse than boys and we think this one is a girl. I think I was about 5 1/2 month along with Dylan when the sick feeling finally went away. Here's hoping that because it started a little sooner, it will end a little sooner. Another interesting thing is this baby doesn't seem to like chocolate. I don't remember having issues with chocolate with Dylan, but the funny thing is, Dylan doesn't like chocolate. Ah, the mayonnaise aversion is back this time. With Dylan, Rob had to assign anything to do with mayo to a different cook, because I couldn't stand to look T or touch the stuff. I can still eat it though. So those are my observations so far. Hopefully I can update this blog on at least a weekly basis. This will more than likely be our last little one, so I'd like to keep a record of all the fun from my last pregnancy.
