Second trimester bliss - anyone else want to share??

[Toomanytoomany]

I *love* this time in pregnancy. The baby is there, kicking and showing quite well, but not so big that you're horribly uncomfortable and can't sleep (well, most of the time!).

The morning sickness has largely gone and the fatigue, but you're pregnant enough that if you do feel tired, people don't mind you going and having a rest.

The hormones are settling down into that happy-go-lucky sort of vague bliss-ninny state...

I just love it. Is anyone else sharing the mid-pregnancy jollies or am I just making some of you want to throw a rock at my head?

Oh those few weeks were so lovely, i have just about reached the other end now, getting up to pee, uncomfortable to sleep and the heartburn has begun!
I do love the second tri though. Live it up!

For me it just sort of kicked in all of a sudden at nineteen weeks. I'd been feeling exhausted and miserable before then. From my past experience (this is my sixth baby) it will last for me until about thirty weeks when I will be huge - plus that will be the middle of the hottest time of the year. Thank goodness I live near the beach! (Although I may have to look out for the Greenpeace people coming to roll me back into the water....)

I'm also loving this stage at the moment too.

My MS stopped about 10/11w, i got HB at about 14w whach has now settled, my headaches have eased too. I still find i tire easy 7 the afternoon is by far the worst time of day for me.

I'm sooo loving my bump & the shape of it too. Bubs started giving me proper kicks from last week & i just love feeling our Monkey moving within. For me it's reassuring that all is ok within, it's calming to.

I'm finding too that in the last few weeks i've been craving white chocolate & also banana ice cream, 2 things i hardly ever ate before.

my heartburn settled too but im enjoying the joys of reflux!!! have to admit my fatigue never went away, buts that probably due to running after a 2 yr old!!
before you know it you'll be in the third
enjoy every moment!!!!!

Oh how wonderful the second tri was for me!!! I just loved it and completely understand how you feel - no rock throwing coming from me

Being my first pg, I was most unhappy to realise that it doesn't last! Am counting down the days now
