[QUOTE="PersonalEnigma, post: 115243, member: 4457"] Thanks for the congrats [img]:smile:[/img] It took a long time to decide to go ahead and have a second. We actually looked at adoption very seriously as I had a rough pregnancy with my first. The only reason we didn't is that my inlaws are rather anti-adoption (taking on someone else's "problem"...). They are very involved in our lives, so we decided not to risk having them treat a second child diffrently than our first. I'm glad that we went ahead and had a second of our own though - she's the most adorable little gal [img]:smile:[/img] The pregnancy was much easier this time around (although the labour was far more difficult...). Little easy child is getting better about always being held. My inlaws got her a rocking seat/chair (converts for when they get to be toddlers) that I plan to try out as soon as I can find my screwdriver to put it together... I have a tummy-time/back-time play thing that she is just beginning to enjoy too. The swing works well for while I am eating (especialy breakfast), but she only puts up with it for so long (unless she falls asleep in it). She is finally taking naps in her cradle now though which is a big help. I lost much of the weight from the first pregnancy quickly last time, but was injured when he was just over a year old and gained back everything weighing the same as I did at full term... This time I really want to get back to the weight I got to when I lost that excess weight three years ago.
