    Congratulations!

    I'm going to sneak in a tiny bit of advice... water, water, water! Yep, more important than ever :wink:

    Also, enjoy each moment. Life gets crazy and it's nice to have some quietish time before the roller coaster ride begins!

    So happy for you dear!

    Advice:

    You're going to be REALLY tired. Sleep. Especially if you ever plan to have more because you don't have the luxury of sleeping the second time. I'd come home from work, eat dinner and fall asleep on the couch at like 7 most nights.

    Eating helps morning sickness.

    Don't worry too much about weight gain. It comes off easy. Don't use it as an excuse to go crazy but don't stress over it either.

    Pregnancy sucks. It's okay to hate it even if you struggled to get here.

    Your business will soon become everyone else's business. For some reason people think it's okay to ask pregnant women anything and everything and they might even tough your stomach uninvited.

    The best part of being pregnant is feeling the baby move so treasure that when it happens (and not getting your period for 9 months is pretty awesome too).

    I am not a touchy feely person so that whole belly touching thing might get on my nerves.

    Thanks for the advice Rae! :)

    Was trying to write this as a response to one of your posts, but the news feed went kaboom.

    Congratulations!! I can still remember that feeling when I saw "Pregnant" on mine (I bought three that spelled it out because I wanted to be sure lol). It is an amazing feeling. Best of luck to you all :)

    OMG! It wasn't bad with my first pregnancy, but with my last, I started telling people I wasn't pregnant and just had a very large tumor. I'm not kidding. Random strangers at the grocery store would start touching me without even asking. I hated it!
