It's true what people have been telling me. The second trimester is a great place to be. Ok I'm "technically" still a week away but I sure am feeling good. I must say I've been pretty blessed compared to some stories I've heard. The month of December was not a very good month for me as far as the way I was feeling. I remember even thinking "Will I ever feel good again?" I had zero energy and A LOT of queezy feelings. It started off as ravenous hunger ALL THE TIME. I just constantly was needing to eat food or I would feel nauseous. As long as I was eating it wasn't as bad, but eating started to get old really quick because I was running out of foods that didn't make me gag. I didn't have a problem finding things to eat at first, but once I ate a particular thing I couldn't eat it again. I'd be hungry and eat a sandwich and then from that point on if I ever thought about that sandwich again I would feel nauseous. Then, I decided it would be a good idea to get the flu. Oh my, that week was a bad one.
Anyway, I woke up this past Monday morning and I felt kind of normal. It continued through the whole day. It was the first time in weeks that I worked a normal day without wishing I was home in bed. I've felt that way this whole week. It's awesome!!! I actually have energy to do things and I haven't felt woozy at all. Knock on wood that this isn't just a fluke.

so glad you're feeling better. it took a few weeks into my 2nd trimester to start feeling better. it wasn't until week 19 that i started feeling great again. now i only wish i wasn't such an emotional mess all the time :) Can't wait for you to start feeling your little one, it's a great feeling....that's when it actually hit me that we were having a baby. you'll have to let me know when you're at work so i can stop by and see ya!!
Congratulations Stephanie! I like the 2nd trimester too! I'm almost in the 3rd now though, so the fun is winding down. Just kidding, the 3rd isn't that bad either.
Yay! What great news! So excited for you guys!
