Last week we had our monthly check up for the baby & mommy. The doctor didn't do the ultrasound, so we don't have an updated picture of the little one this time. But we heard the heart beat for the first time, and it was quite amazing. The baby sounded like he/she was racing somewhere, with the heartbeat going 140 beats/minute!
Being in the second trimester has not done much change for me at this point - I still struggle with leftovers & smells, only certain foods sound good at a certain time during the day, and I can eat all day long! I have to spend my energy in the mornings thinking about what may sound good to me to eat during the day, so I can prepare the “right” snacks. My regular bedtime is still 8pm-7am, with a possible nap in the afternoon. Even though I sleep so much, I still don’t have much energy during the day. I find it very difficult to do any basic day-to-day activities without feeling exhausted, even sitting up at the piano for longer than 45 minutes at a time. But I keep hoping and waiting that the “2nd trimester feeling” is going to kick in any day, and all of a sudden I’m going to start feeling great.
Jeremy and Bo have been very patient with this pregnant lady. Cooking, cleaning, doing laundry and all that good stuff are their projects these days. I have to admit, I’m really liking it :)
