I read all about it. The second trimester is typically a joyous time for mommy. The discomforts of early pregnancy will have passed, and most women begin to feel incredibly well. Morning sickness has typically subsided. One's hair appears thicker as the natural cycle of shedding hair comes to a halt and won't resume again until after the birth. The increased metabolism and blood supply have a positive effect on nails. What woman wouldn't feel great? As for me, my nails are definately stronger, and the hair, well lets just say I'm no Tina Turner but, nonetheless, it appears to be a bit thicker. And morning sickness is a thing of the past. Hallelujah!
My body is going through many changes and the fact that I'm pregnant is becoming more obvious. The first time someone other than a friend or an acquaintance asked whether I was pregnant was at no other than Chipotle. Being that Justin and I dine there quite frequently, one of the employees couldn't help her curiosity. She just had to ask. I don't blame her. She has seen us come and go for quite some time now and the mention of children was never on the menu. She showed excitement of that similar to a sister. She brought a big smile to my face and I realized more than ever that this really is a special moment in time for any woman.
As far as baby, this a period of rapid growth as fat starts to be laid down under her/his skin. This helps to keep her/him warm and give her/him energy. Baby is getting more hair on her head, eyebrows, and eyelashes, she has fingernails and toenails in miniature : ) She can now hear sounds outside my body which is why I have headphones up to my belly playing Chopin's Piano Concerto No.2 as I'm typing this. I read that he/she may move around vigorously if exposed to loud noises such as music at a rock concert. Guess where I'll be tomorrow night? None other than the Jeremy Camp/Toby Mac concert. Baby will surely be rocking out. And he/she better get used to it. Daddy and I are not about to end our hobby of attending our share of yearly concerts.
Have a wonderful week and Happy Valentine's!
