Baby L #2 - Week 39

Weight - +29 lb 
Inches - 
13 inches 
Like -  
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
Dislike - Throwing up

So I have been throwing up a lot, a lot, a lot. Sometimes it is so violent that I end up getting contractions. One night this past week I ended up having contractions every 5 minutes lasting 1minute and 20 seconds. I thought I was in labor but two hours of that and then they started getting less frequent and less intense and I knew it was not time yet. All the throwing up has me looking sickly haha, but I am fine really. 

We were able to finish most of Emiliana's room this past week. It is such a fun thing to do to plan their rooms, and fold their clothes, and imagine them in their little dresses and occupying their own space. It is different this time around, I have a vague idea of what to expect, I know I'll willingly spend sleepless nights with her and I'll snuggle her while sitting in her room and dreaming of what she will be. I know I'll smell her too much, and try to memorize every little thing she does to no avail because she'll do too man amazing things. Imagining Emiliana while doing her room has been an interesting time, we just dream of her, as her older sister dances around the furniture. 

At our doctor's appointment this week we were told yet again that Emi is too small, so it looks like she's below 10% which simply means I am not eligible to have her in the birth center. I can still have her with a midwife and in labor and delivery but babies below 10% and above 90% are considered high risk so I may have to head to regular labor and delivery which is not a big deal. They still want to do an ultrasound to discard any problems even though they don't anticipate any, due to the price of the ultrasound though we are hesitant to get it, we know she's completely fine.

Baby L # 2 - Week 38


Inches - 12.5

I feel completely fine finally, except for the cough that refuses to leave me. I think nighttime vs. daytime weather is so different that my chest just gets confused and I start coughing once it gets a little cold (which is about 55 here in San Diego ha).

According to the doctor Emi is a bit small, but they aren't concerned because Antonella has always been small, I am a small person and Emi has always been small. But they want to check her size thoroughly  through an ultrasound. We'll see.

Baby L # 2 - Week 36

So after two weeks of having H1N1 and being quarantined to my room I am finally allowed out and feeling up to it. It was a rough couple of weeks, I missed seeing Antonella and Caleb, but I am glad we were extra careful so they wouldn't get sick. Emiliana and I just had 2 weeks of being alone, just her and I and I was able to talk to her a lot, that was nice.

Due to being sick I lost 7lb so I am eager to go to the doctor to see what they say about Emi.

Baby L # 2 - Week 34

We are still growing and doing well. I haven't been feeling so great but I don't know if it is due to exhaustion or due to something weird.

Week 27 Weight - 11 lb
Inches -
9.5 inches
Like - 
Lemonade and croissants
Dislike -
Nothing in particular


Emiliana moves so much, it's crazy how active she is. I can see her over my skin when I am laying down. Caleb feels her every day at night and talks to her for a bit before we go to bed. I really think she is more active than Antonella, which is kind of interesting considering Antonella NEVER stops moving now.

My sciatica pain is pretty bad at night, but Caleb is amazing at massaging my leg which helps a lot. The weather in San Diego is changing finally and it looks like we are finally dealing with fall weather which is really nice. I am trying to get creative with my clothes, but this belly is so much bigger and wider than A's was that is proving to be a challenge. I still fit in many of my jeans, and a lot of my shirts, but any things are getting really uncomfortable. We'll see how I do for the rest of the pregnancy.

Emiliana feels so much heavier than I remember Antonella feeling. My back hurts like it never did at this point with A, but it could also be because I am carrying an 18lb mini toddler around. I am not throwing up or feeling nauseous at all anymore, which I love. I still feel a little tired but I think we can blame that on A too.

I can't believe I am almost in my third trimester, it has gone by pretty fast, and I am anticipating it going faster with the holidays here. Crazy, I'll have two babies in no time.

Baby moves violently and wakes me up at night. She moves a lot when Antonella cries. And I think she likes lemonade a lot.

8 inches
8.5 lb Crazy growth spurt. Baby feels like she tripled in size. I weaned Antonella a week ago, and since then the baby is growing faster. Crazy! I still get nauseous every now and then but haven't thrown up, and it's a lot more bearable.

Caleb has felt the baby clearly now. Antonella started calling the belly "baby" and kissing it.
