Second child

Hi,

Last week Atzva got into a regular medical check. She is now on week 35, and the doctor showed here how low is the head of the baby. The doctor explained her that the second birth is usually earlier than the first one.

Atzva suddenly got panic. The all pregnancy thing wasn’t really set down her mind, neither in mine. Yes, we got excited to see the baby in the ultrasound checks Atzva did. And we were talking about the name and did some all checks needed, but we didn’t really understood another baby is on the way.

Last week one of Atzva co-worker explained their boss, that we didn’t want that pregnancy. He relaxed, for he was sure we planned to rip him off. Of course we wanted, but at least it made her boss easy on her . We did thought it will take us longer, just like with Jannaeus, but as we say – Der Mentsch Tracht und Gott Lacht (Man plans and God laughs) .

We used Jannaeus as an excuse, not doubt about it. When he was in Atzva belly, that was exciting. But now, when we have Jannaeus running, talking, eating in live a baby in the belly is less exciting. That is of course made us kind of repress the pregnancy. Atzva kept doing physically the same things as she did before, until one day she realized she is just too tired.

I did kept trying to let her rest more, but again, with a toddler in the house how much can she rest? I kept taking picture of Atzva belly, but I didn’t post them. Neither did I wrote about that pregnancy has much with Jannaeus. For the same reasons. We looked back on her pregnancy pics a week ago, she is skinner in this pregnancy. Although the baby is about the same size

Atzva today on week 35.

Now when we realized a new baby will land here in about a month , we arranging everything quickly. I can say that with Jannaeus packing and arranging things was with fear and excitement of first time delivery. Now it is more like getting ready for war: buying everything quick, arranging food and babysitters for Jannaeus,  rearranging things around the house and above all looking for cheap things. With a baby and a toddler in the house we to look closer on our expenses with we wish to keep saving for an apartment.

They say the difference between one child and two children, is as the difference between no children and one child. And we know the difference between non and one child. I guess that in a week our life will turn over again

Take Care
