2nd Trimester Recap!
I seriously cannot believe I am done with my second trimester! Time is flying by and our baby boy will be here before we know it! The second trimester was easier than the first that’s for sure! No more nausea and feeling so tired and lethargic all the time! I haven’t had any strange food cravings or aversions and I am not really eating any more than I use to. I am trying to drink lots and lots of water and still exercise and maintain a healthy weight gain. I actually started a new exercise routine, since we are in the process of moving. It’s called The Pregnancy Project by Tracey Anderson. I am really enjoying it and you can do it at home, you just need some hand weights and a yoga mat. I passed my glucose tolerance test and all of baby check-ups have been great so far, Praise the Lord!
We have recently moved back to the South! Yay! So, we’ve been busy house hunting and are currently staying with family while we decide on the perfect house for our growing little family! I am SO ready to get a place and start nesting and decorating!! But, we are blessed and thankful that we get to stay with our sweet family for the time being. We are starting to slowly get things for the baby’s room and are currently in the process of finishing up our baby registry! I have 3 baby showers coming up in August, so I am looking forward to celebrating with friends and family! I am also in the process of searching for prenatal classes to take, so that will be fun! I worked on the Mother/Baby unit for two years so I feel like I am pretty educated, but I want to learn more and I want Jonathan to be able to learn some things as well!
I felt baby kick a ton more in the second trimester and so did daddy! I had some crazy dreams and more difficulty sleeping! I also started to get indigestion later on in the second trimester and some aches and pains, but nothing too bad! Overall, this pregnancy has been great! Our Theodore is a good little boy! We’ve been doing weekly updates and pictures which is super and fun and will be great for the baby book!
