This time around, my pregnancy has been so different from my first. I was so sick with the twins and I remember thinking the sickness would never end.
This time around, I tend to be sicker in the evening.
Cravings...this time around I am craving bread, bread, and bread. I can eat grilled cheese and falafel's. The sight or smell of any type of meat sends me into dry heaves.
This time around, I am four years older than I was before and the fatigue is kicking my butt.
I have written before about work and how I do not work in an environment that is supportive of working mothers. This semester is tough. I have more early meetings than ever. I feel like people are waiting for me to fail at work.
This time around, I do not care.
I have had babies before and I know how quickly the time passes. This time around, my priorities are crystal clear. Work is work but having a baby is a miracle and I am enjoying every last second of it this time around.

That's too bad that you have a non-supportive work environment! They need to get with the program!
Sometimes I envy people that get to have singleton pregnancies. I think I will always wonder what is is like to have just one in there.
I love the fact that you are taking time to enjoy this.
f*ck 'em amy- swiss chalet style!
