I'm in my 2nd trimester

Today marks the beginning of my second trimester! Six months from today will be my due date. Yeah!! I am actually starting to get my energy back. I stayed up last night till 11:00. I am also going to start going back on the treadmill. I need it badly. So to all those BTDT mommies, anything I can look forward to in this trimester? I'd appreciate your advice.

Growing out of your clothes!!

Enjoy every second of it. It goes too fast. Take pictures of youself and definetely exercise. It makes a huge difference.

This trimester is the best! You don't get too big, you start to feel really good - you'll feel the baby move around...I think it's the best time!! Enjoy every second...it really does go too fast - although the end result is fun too!!

I agree, enjoy the second trimester. It flew by for me way too fast. The one thing that was hard for me was the clothes. I grew out of two sizes in my second trimester. Now starting the 3rd I'm headed into another
This trimester is good for you to get ready for the baby (nesting as well). You'll have the energy to do it.
Almost there...

I'm confused. I was under the impression that I was starting my 2nd trimester the end of this week, but I am due 3 weeks after you. Am I miscalculating?

Re: I'm in my 2nd trimester

Babycenter says the 2nd trimester is when you reach 14 weeks but some books say otherwise? Isn't this confusing?

Re: I'm in my 2nd trimester

yep, some say 12, some 13 and some 14

Re: I'm in my 2nd trimester

Today is three months till my due date and I am 14 weeks since my last period and 12 weeks pregnant. So I assumed this was the week. Thank you mommies for your advice. I am in maternity clothes already. I want to start taking pictures too. I would post myself, but it would have to be on a day when I was feeling really good about my body. Maybe if I see more of you girls posting your bellies, I'd feel better. Anyway thanks again!! You girls are so helpful. Wow, I am having a baby!!!

Re: I'm in my 2nd trimester

Re: I'm in my 2nd trimester

I bought my maternity clothes at Babygap Outlet in Riverhead, Motherhood Maternity and Target. I have to say Motherhood doesn't have a great return policy. You only have ten days, so try everything on. BabyGap I got great deals 3.99 for pants!
