I'm officially in my second trimester! Woo hoo! I gotta say, I don't feel any differently. I'll take that as a sign I've been very lucky and healthy in my pregnancy thus far. While I know I'm getting bigger by the day, I still don't really look all that different and because I've been feeling ok sometimes I feel like maybe I'm not pregnant. There are days I have to look back at the first sonogram pictures to remind myself. Again, I need to remind myself these are good things and I'm very lucky.
This week I go for my second appointment with the midwife. No sonogram this time so I won't get any further "you're still pregnant" confirmations, but I'll get to meet another doctor at the practice and I hope I like her. Everyone there seems really nice but I do get a little anxious thinking about how I may not know the person who will deliver my baby in a few short months. I know they're all doctors and are qualified for the job, but it's kind of weird. I just have to trust the system and know it will all be ok.
It was funny, for the first time today someone said "your baby is showing" and got all excited. I don't think I even realized I was "noticeable" until then. I still don't think it's THAT noticeable, but because she knows and was looking for it, I think it was a bit more visible. Again, I'm still getting use to that not being offensive and it being a compliment.
I read an article today about learning how to love your pregnant body today and I think it really helped. At least let's hope it did!
I surely do hope I can live up to the "you're going to be the cutest pregnant lady" comments, though. It's a tough job but some one has got to do it...
