Second trimester

They say that you start to feel much better in the second trimester, but I couldn't even imagine that while I felt so awful in the first trimester. It's funny how, having never been pregnant before, I was starting to equate pregnancy with feeling yucky, tired, and sick. It gave me comfort to know that things were progressing as they should. So now that I've crossed the threshold into the "good feeling period," it is nerve-racking because I feel so good! It's astounding how my energy has come back and I can eat meals without the crazy nausea and food aversions. Now I am just dealing with headaches and sore tatas (when are they going to stop???). It is a darn good thing that I have the doppler to keep me sane!. My next OB appointment is a week from tomorrow!

M and I have started to discuss names. Nothing too serious, since we don't know the gender yet, but I am beginning to realize that it might be a harder task than I thought. It seems we have pretty opposite tastes in names..so we are going to have some major compromising to do. Yikes.

  1. Yeah, about the tatas... My seem to just change from one state of soreness to another. Never good.

    I'm so glad you're feeling better for the most part though!!!

  2. yay for 2nd trimesters!

    I have started feeling a whole lot better too- it's funny how precise our bodies are it almost seems right? I didn't expect as soon as 2T struck to instantly feel different, but it has pretty much been that way.

    I'm still having food aversions and break-outs but the rest seems to have temporarily dissapated.

  3. Hope you're feeling better! DH never has any name suggestions, but he seems to think he has a lot of veto power!
