So I finally hit that milestone on Sunday. It's such a relief to be in my 2nd trimester with a healthy happy baby. The baby is about 3" and 1.5 oz right now. I have been able to feel my uterus for about a week or two and it's getting bigger all the time. I finally gained back the pounds I lost from morning sickness +1. So my weight for the first trimester was 112, 110, 113! I've also gained about an inch in my torso area (bust, ribs, waist and belly)
Back pain: This past weekend was mine and Michael's 1 year anniversary so we decided to go to Riverdale Resort in Preston, ID with some friends to enjoy a weekend getaway. The first night we stayed at their house on an air mattress and my back was hurting a little more than normal the next morning. The next two nights at the hotel were pure misery. The bed was really firm and I would wake up with sharp pains in my back that made it really painful to move. I called my doctor yesterday and moved my appointment from next Monday to tomorrow so I can talk to him about ways to relieve the pain.
Symptoms increasing:
Back pain
Exhaustion
Sore lower abdomen
Round ligament pain
Bigger breasts (wahoo!)
Increase in appetite (I still get MS but I can finally eat)
Acne (where's that pregnant glow?)
Symptoms decreasing:
Morning sickness (but I do still take zofran and gag at least once a day)
Breast tenderness
Frequent urination
