So far this pregnancy has been completely different. With Autumn I felt pregnant very early on. I could feel and see changes in my body. This time around I did not start to feel pregnant until around 6 or 7 weeks when the nausea began. The nausea has been so much worse this time around. I've actually been on anti-nausea medicine (generic version of Zofran). It has helped some, but I still feel gaggy a lot and weird smells bug me. I haven't taken any belly pics yet, but I keep meaning to. Maybe soon.
So far I have only gained 2-3 lbs and I can still fit into most of my clothes, although certain things are starting to feel snug (goodbye 00 jeans). Other than the nausea I don't really feel very pregnant, so it is nice to have an ultrasound and see that baby is still there and doing good. Baby was moving around during the ultrasound too, which was fun to see. I can't wait to find out the sex of the baby. It looks like we will find out during the 20 week ultrasound sometime in mid-late June.
The timing of this pregnancy is very deja vu, because it is almost exactly 2 years after my pregnancy with Autumn. My original due date with Autumn was November 1, 2010. She was born on October 12, 2010, so I have a strong feeling that this baby will be an October baby as well. We shall see.
Since I have been so sick this pregnancy my eating and working out habits have been crappy at best. I am trying to get back on track. My goal is not to gain 45 lbs this time around. I would really like to only gain the recommended 25 to 35 lbs. Seems like a reasonable goal, assuming I can start working out at least occasionally and avoid fast food joints.
Here are some ultrasound pics.

Sorry you are feeling so sick! Not fun! I have an early ultrasound picture of Clara that looks so freaky weird - just like a skeleton. :)
