Another Murphy Baby to come...

We get to have another child in the family!! So exciting... is it a girl or boy? We won't know for a while but our family is growing that's for sure!

First Trimester-
Cravings: None so far! I don't want to eat but I know I have to. When I do it's a little and it's light and not heavy. I want salads or soups, that's it. Nothing spicy just bland foods for now.

Feelings: I feel bloated and nauseous. No throw up but just the sickening feeling. (Maybe it's the opposite sex this time) :)

Second Trimester-
Cravings: I want all kinds of fruits and vegetables. I tried for the first time EVER Brussels Sprouts!! Mmm... (my mom would be shocked) I have a little appetite back but still would rather eat salad over a lot of things. Dried Mangos are my vice! Chase is buying me a package twice a week
Feelings: I feel faint and lightheaded more. I've been tracking my blood pressure before breakfast to see if there is anything different. My feet swell more than when I was prego with Hallie. I'm excited and a little nervous how to be a mom of 2 kids and if Hallie will like the new baby. She from day 1 has called it "Spoons". We find out what Spoons is November  23rd. 

Third Trimester-
Cravings: I finally got my appetite back fully! I want to EAT!! I LOVE Dried Mangos (now buying 3 bags a week) still want salads, apples, strawberries, blueberries, vegetables and even Brussels Sprouts
Feelings: Not as fainty but still swelling like crazy! She is always in the downward position (I think) I feel like I'm going to squish her little head when I sit. I feel larger than I did with Hallie even though I'm all belly! My Dr is watching my blood pressure because it keeps going up and then going back to normal. He has scheduled a c-section (I call it "Evacuation Day" or "Eviction Day") for March 30th if she hasn't come by then. I had Hallie 3 weeks early- 2 weeks earlier than scheduled c-section day, and 3 weeks from her due date. Let's see if this one is anything like her big sister!

Here are the pictures we took on this journey this time... 


It's a... GIRL
