I'm 20 weeks along today and things are still moving along the same path. This pregnancy has been a bit more challenging than it was with Brooke. I've had ups and downs, but more of the downs than the ups ;) While the nausea finally faded about 16 or so weeks into pregnancy, I'm still having issues with heartburn. I became less tired for a few weeks, but then started getting tired again. I also am just generally feeling more pregnant than I actually am. I'm bigger than I was with Brooke (though not huge or "too big" in any way), more tired, slower, and just feel like I'm farther along than I really am. Although 1/2 way through is great, I feel like I should be more than 1/2 way (if that makes any sense!).
I wasnt sure when I started posting about my pregnancy with Brooke, and so I looked it up - I was 24 weeks. A full month ahead of where I am now. So I'm not sure how I can compare this pregnancy to my last one at this time. I do know my weight gain is similar, but a bit more this time. I also know that I'm bigger now than I was then, but not by a ton. I'd say physically I look about the same with each pregnancy. The primary difference is just how aware I am every minute that I am pregnant. I remember with Brooke sometimes I could sort of forget :) The real difference is that I am spending this pregnancy chasing around a toddler ... one that never seems to get tired. Ever.
