Second Trimester

I finally entered my second trimester. Not only have I reached a new milestone in my pregnancy, I feel so much better! My energy is coming back slowly each day. I am also working out more and running around a lot more lately. Recently, we started to get things ready for the baby. Over the weekend, we went with Aunt Tonya to Babies R US and got started on our baby registry. Today, we got our carpets and tile cleaned before we start to turn the guest bedroom into a nursery. I am definitely starting to realize time is flying by so I am trying to stay on top of things that need to be done before Baby H arrives.

Pregnancy Update

Many of you have been asking me how I have been feeling lately and I thought I would do a quick update. These past couple of weeks I have been so fatigued and a little nauseated at times. I think it has a little to do with the wonderful Florida heat we are experiencing right now and the rest is just normal first trimester symptoms. I am still working out, but not as much or as heavy as I was doing pre-pregnancy. Many of you have been telling me it will pass soon because I am almost at the end of my first trimester and I sure hope it does, but I know if it does not it will be all worth it in the end. :)

Doctors Appointment

We had our second doctors appointment this afternoon. Everything went really well. I got some more optional blood work done and I heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time using the heart monitor. The heartbeat was great at 168 bpm. We go back in September for another check-up and then I can schedule another sonogram to find out the sex of the baby!
