Always tired and my familys reaction!

  So this week I should be going on my 5th week of pregnancy and I'm sooooo tired its crazy! I've been craving sweets and just feeling blah. I went for a nice walk yesterday with my mom, sister and of course my little baby boy and that was really nice however I was so exhausted after.

  The past few days I've started pregnancy work outs and thats been going good, I feel like I'm getting in a good work out but I don't feel like I'm going to hard on myself. I will say most of the time I don't even feel "pregnant" like I usually don't feel sick, or have stomach pains like my body is handling this pregnancy a lot better then my last pregnancy (yay).

 Wow I almost forgot to say I announced my pregnancy to my mom, dad and sister yesterday! lol So I told my brother the day before because he was over and he was so excited, a few weeks ago I went over to my parents and he was like Jess I had a dream your going to have a baby girl. Of course we don't know if the baby is a girl because its too early but wouldn't that be amazing if he guessed right? ;) Aha Anyways when I told my mom at first she seemed worried because I do have a 16 month old so she knows it will be difficult after all my brother and I are 18 months apart so she really does know what I will be going through. Once she saw I was happy and confident she got really happy I know shes still worried because I live 25mins away from her and the Hospital so we are trying to look for a place now but we most likely won't be moving closer until next spring after the baby arrives.

   My mom would love a granddaughter but we both think I will have another boy. My dads reaction was polar opposite lol His eyes lit up and he was so excited and gave me a hug saying congratulations. His opinion meant the world to me so to have him happy for me and happy to be a grandma again is just the icing on the cake. Lastly my little sister was kind of like what? (I put my son is a undershirt that I designed and it said "I'm going to be a big brother" to surprise my parents and my sister) so at first she didn't understand so I was like "I'm having another baby!" And that made her super happy. Shes only 8 as there is a big age difference between us lol


  Well thats about everything exciting I have to talk about... My partner and I have picked out a full girls name. We haven't thought of a boys one yet. I don't know when I will be sharing it I guess when the timing feels right ;)

 Hope everyone is doing well and if your pregnant too then congratz! <3

4th week of pregnancy

                                         A bit about me :)

  Hey everyone my name is Jess, I have a gorgeous 16 month old son with my wonderful boyfriend of 3 years I like to refer to him as my partner because he means so much more to me then the typical boyfriend is presumed as. We are not married but one day we will be (weddings are so costly). As of right now where quite content living outside of a major city In Ontario, Canada. My partner works full time and I'm a stay at home Mommy. I have a youtube channel.

It's focused on beauty related things but maybe I'll do some mommy and pregnancy videos. I do like to be very private thats why I don't do videos where you see me talking however I will be doing bump shots and showing pictures once the baby arrives :) Anyways thats just a bit about me if you have any questions leave a comment! 


How far along? 4 weeks I believe.

Total weight gain/measurements? No idea aha I'm very bloated though and my stomach is getting hard already. I've heard it's common for women in there 2nd pregnancy. A month ago I weighed 133lbs. I don't like to go on the scale to much.

 Maternity clothes? Nope, I gave most of what I had in my last pregnancy away.

 Stretch marks? I do have some from when I went through a growth spurt and from my last pregnancy, I gained 60lbs! I Started off at just 120lbs.

 Sleep? I've had pregnancy insomnia for the past week, I've been waking up a lot earlier too.

 Best moment this week? I have two! lol Going to a big Canadian festival in the city. It was a lot of walking and I wasn't feeling 100% but I got to eat a fried mars bar which was delicious! The very best moment was taking a positive pregnancy test on Sunday :)

 Miss anything? My energy!

 Movement? Nope to early :)

 Food cravings? Fried pickles! I did have it when my partner and I went out for dinner last week. They were delicious.

 Anything making you queasy or sick? Just feeling nauseous for the sake of it lol I didn't throw up in my last pregnancy so I'm hoping I don't again

 Gender? No idea! This pregnancy seems totally different then my last which leads me to believe I will have a girl this time. My partner has always wanted a girl but I have a feeling I will have another boy!

 Labour signs? Nope...

 Symptoms?  
My pregnancy symptoms are very minor compared to my last pregnancy. 
Stomach cramps have been bad once
 Pregnancy insomnia 
My appetite raised a little
I'm bloated
 Nauseous 
 My acne just almost disappeared for no reason 
 Metallic taste in my mouth.
 All the symptoms have been there the past 2 weeks but they were brushed off until I woke up 1 night to stomach pain and then missed my period.

 Belly button in or out? In! Was in with my last pregnancy, my baby bump was quite small.

 Happy or moody most of the time? I'm always moody lol Usually happy though

 Looking forward to? Finding out if the baby is a girl or a boy! I know its far away but I can't wait to know :)


I used the questions from Anna Saccones pregnancy update post.


                                                   Yay! :)
