Welcome to the 2nd Trimester!

We've made it! One trimester down, two more to go... So this is when I should start getting energy back, feeling a little better (normal, perhaps?), yadda yadda. Let's hope so. I can't deny that I have been feeling a little bit better but I still have good days and bad days. My pre-op appointment was yesterday.... surgery is a week from today. Baby bop is looking good! She/he is about 3 1/2 inches long now and the size of a lemon. Heartbeat was great and I could see the little legs kicking around (haven't felt the baby move yet). The placenta is laying a little low but my doctor said he wasn't too concerned about that as it usually corrects itself as the pregnancy progresses. The cervix is still looking good and is closed, so one week of bed rest after surgery and then he will let me do my thing until 21/22 weeks and we'll reevaluate. Here's to hoping that I can be big and fat and still waddling around at the end of the pregnancy :-)
