The Fishers in Texas: It's a BOY!

It's been a long time again. I am hoping to use this as a sort of journal while pregnant with what will be our last child, a little boy due in April 2014. I found out I was pregnant when only 4 weeks pregnant and had to tell family pretty quick as we were going to be spending 2 weeks with Sam's family that month in England. I was 5 weeks along in England and 7 weeks by the time we got home. By 12 weeks we already found out we were having a little boy via a blood test during a genetics screening. We have confirmed it is a little boy through a recent ultrasound, and boy is he a boy! haha.

My first trimester was exhausting, I've never been so tired in my whole life. I woke up feeling exhausted. I napped every single day when Piper napped, I was really sick of napping. It consumed my life! Once I finally got over there I got sick. Once I finally got over being sick, I pulled my groin! So I haven't been 100% in months and it's annoying and depressing. I think I am seeing a light at the end of the tunnel but we'll see how my 3rd trimester treats me! I really took for granted feeling so amazing with my 1st pregnancy. I am thankful I never suffered morning sickness but being super tired and out of it all the time is just as awful. I am going to a chiropractor now for my back and am wearing an external maternity belt to help with groin and round ligament pains. Piper will be 6 weeks away from turning 3 years old when her baby brother is born. We pretty much already know the day the baby will be born since I have to have a repeat c-section. Weird being able to choose his birthday!

I was excited and also scared when I found out I was pregnant. It just makes me sad knowing I won't have my full attention on Piper anymore but I know once this little baby comes that it won't worry me so much. I'm already getting use to not being able to focus on her very much since this pregnancy feels like it's taken over my life. She is just at an amazing age right now. She is so loving, sweet and learning so much every day, but also has her "hyper piper" moments and I know she will keep this little baby fully entertained! Here are a few pictures and I that's really all I have to say right now!
