Yes, I'm hoping this pregnancy will write over the last one. It's sort of imperative that it does.
I'm so looking forward to the 2nd tri. I remember that last time the nausea disappeared almost instantly when I crossed that line. Luckily I'll only have students for a couple of weeks before I get there.
And I'm so excited for D to have a sibling. She actually wants a brother! I've asked her several different times, and every time she says she wants the baby to be a boy. H's best friend is a sono tech and she was able to tell me the sex a full month before the "official" one that happens after 20 weeks, so I might find out as soon as late September what I'm having! I see my doctor again in 2 weeks for my monthly check up, then 2 weeks later I'll have the blood test to check for anomalies. I remember that test really stressed me out last time (especially as a special ed teacher).
Right now I'm just trying to enjoy the last few days (not even weeks! Days!!) of my summer vacation before going back to work. Slowly implementing not so fun things (like earlier bed times and rise times) and purging things in my house to have a clean slate for the new school year. It's slow going with the pregnancy symptoms (I can only stand working for about 45 minutes before I start to get extremely tired). I'm just hoping the school year will be a really good one. At least I'm not a new teacher this time around like I was my first pregnancy either.
