Our baby now has a nickname – and a friend of ours insisted he/she had to have their own nickname, so I’m sure she’ll be happy :) Baby Parker is now often referred to as the “Bean” or “Little Bean” by his/her grandma, and mom & dad. Not sure where it came from, but it has now stuck! hehe It's exciting to think that Little Bean is now sucking his/her thumb and moving around. I am looking forward to when I will be able to feel these movements!
The time seems to be going quickly now, perhaps because of the time of year. We had our first prenatal clinic appointment soon following my last entry and all seemed well. There are five doctors and whoever is on during your appointment is who you see. When I went for the first visit, they gave me a whole load of information brochures etc and did some prodding around to see if everything looked ok. I had to go for more blood work and all seems well! My next appointment will be on December 11th, which I can’t believe is right around the corner already.
Overall, I am mainly just feeling tired. I nap everyday and don’t seem to have a lot of energy, but am trying to be discerning with my time so that I can rest and listen to my body. I have gained 2 pounds so far, and am supposed to continue gaining 1lb/week for this trimester, so should start to see more of a belly soon! I am definitely seeing my belly sticking out a bit more, but looks more like I just ate a big supper, not a round baby belly yet. LoL
My appetite is slowly returning. Still not back to normal, but nice to have more foods that I like returning to my senses. Most of my symptoms from first trimester have disappeared.
I find now this pregnancy is going quickly. It seems like just yesterday my 2nd trimester felt so far away, and now it’s already here! I can’t complain, I have been blessed so far in this pregnancy in so many ways.

Dear Little Bean,
My mommy showed me a picture of you and your mommy and daddy today. She told me all about them and, take it from me, they sound pretty special. So, don't worry, you are in goooood hands. BTW, aren't Mommy Accommodations the very bestest? Sit tight and enjoy the ride. But, just so you know, it just gets better and better!
Take care. Your friend, Jonah (a.k.a "Jelly(bean)")
