Pregnancy Comparison

So this post in mainly for my records so I can kind of keep track of how this pregnancy has been. But you are more than welcome to read it!

This pregnancy has been completely different from kinleys pregnancy, which made me think that it could possibly be a boy from the very beginning. So I wanted to list the differences between the two!

SICKNESS:
Kinley- Throwing up 3-4 times a day, sick and nauseated all day from 8 weeks till 17 weeks.
New baby boy- Throwing up 1-2 times a day, some days worse than others.  Had breaks throughout the day where I would feel ok. Started at 6 weeks ended around 15-16 weeks.

CRAVINGS AND FOOD:
Kinley- Nothing ever sounded good. I had to try and decide what the heck I could eat without wanting to up chuck. I lived off of grilled cheese sandwiches, apples and yogurt, and sweets always sounded good. COULDN'T EAT pizza and roast.
New Baby boy- From the beginning I had to eat to make me feel better and I was alwalys in the mood for some particular food and nothing else sounded good...whether is was taco bell, cafe rio, or pasta! I craved Pasta and mexican food and onion rings ha. Sweets haven't really been a huge craving with this pregnancy and dairy foods and sweets haven't settled super well either.

SMELLS:
Kinley- Smell was extremely intensified and every scent was too strong. I could barely stand to be around eric because he "smelled" even if he had just taken a shower ha. (poor guy). I hated my previous favorite hand wash the pink grapefruit scent from bath and body works, because it was too strong.
New baby boy- Smells aren't getting to me as much. If the scent is strong I still have a hard time being around it, but it doesn't make me near as naseuated and sick as it did with kinley. Eric is tolerable to be around this time around :)

HEADACHES AND HEARTBURN:
Kinley- I got both headaches and heartburn in the 2nd trimester, but it was occasional.
New baby boy- Heartburn has been more constance and the 2nd trimester headaches have occured a little more then with kinley.

I will post more differences as I can think of them, but thats all I can think of right now.

Here is a pic of me at 17 weeks...The bump doesn't look as big in this picture as I feel ha. This pregnancy belly has popped out a little quicker than kinley did, and it feels way lower....
P.S. I hate pregnancy pictures, I look awful :)
