Almost in the home stretch....2nd tri

So...Sunday we will be officially in the 2nd trimester.  It cannot come soon enough.  Do you ever get to relax in your pregnancy???
Everybody keeps telling me to relax and enjoy being pregnant...I just can't.  I am a controller by nature and you cannot control this!!!
But I am really happy we are about to hit that goal of the 2nd tri.  I really hope the nausea leaves for good then.  I thought it was gone, but it hits me at the most unexpected times nowadays.  It is no longer as predictable as early early in the 1st tri, when it would just last all the time.  Now...its just when I am cooking or late in the day.  Last night, I made pork tenderloin in the crockpot and just about gagged.  Hubby cannot understand why!  "It smells so good!"  To you!  To me...it made me want to hurl!!!!!!!
I really really hope that goes away soon.  Yet another reason I think this is a girl.  My family is notorious for being really m/s heavy with girls. My sister had it the first 6 months!  She went from like 130lbs to 110lbs in 3 months...they almost put her tail in the hospital.   I havent had it that bad...but there are days! With her second(her boy) she had it for a week. 

Hmmm....
*m/s
*acne like a teenager
*hungry and nauseaus at the same time
*tired, oh so tired....
*boobs hurt like nobodys business and growing every day

Those are my biggest symptoms...and complaints. 

How is everybody else doing????

congrats on the 2nd trimester!!

I am 10 weeks and hope that that magical 13th week brings me relief as well! I am super nauseous, acne, oily hair and skin, hungry and nausous at the same time, my boobs have their times of soreness - much better when I am wearing a good bra, I am soooo tired but it has been a crazy time at work too so that doesn't help matters any.

So what is your due date the beginning of May right? I'm due the end of may. SO excited to be having a spring time baby!

Most definitely!  It won't be so hot here.  In ATL, May is the beginning of the unbearable!  So...I am gonna be prego during the winter...we don't have much spring :(.  Its like it goes from freezing to hot all in one month.  And our fall?  Its looking like the beginning of winter!  We already have temps in the 40s, 50s, and 60s.  Thats cold this time of year for us!

My doctor's appt is Monday...I cannot wait to hear the baby's heartbeat again.  I got so spoiled with all those early ultrasounds...and I don't have another until the 20-21 wk.  So...this will be the first time of just the HB alone with the Doppler.  I sure hope they can find it...I am not the smallest person in the world...I don't want another scare.  I really just want to go calm down somewhere.

So you still have nausea too?  Isn't it the worst?  But worth it though!

I'm only a day behind you.  My doc told me that the second trimester starts on week 14 so I'm not doing my happy dance quite yet.

I guess you could say I'm one of the lucky ones.  I haven't had any morning sickness or nausea at all.  My chief complaint is the fatigue which I thought was going away Saturday but it came back by Monday.

Other than being tired and slightly sore boobs, I wouldn't know I was pregnant.  The 7 sonos I've had definitely prove it, though.

I'm still really nervous due to a previous miscarriage so I'll be very happy to celebrate that 2nd trimester milestone.

Well..it is the 14 wk.  However, I'll be officially 13 weeks on Sunday and going into my 14 wk.  Its weird how they count it(at least at my doc's office).  But even my ticker says Saturday is my last day of hell(oops I mean first tri).  So I'm basically in my 13th wk now...the symptoms almost seem to be increasing for me.  Weird, huh?  I'm more nauseaus now than I was in my 8th week.  Go figure.
