Unlike most woman I did not experience any nausea in the first trimester. I mainly lost my appetite- food just didn't taste the same, it was just blah and not tasty. What I remember most was running to the bathroom every 10 minutes! and feeling not so much energy. So all in all my first trimester was a breeze.
My Second trimester- which I just ended, was starting to feel like things were getting back to
normal. My energy levels were back to normal, and food started to taste good again. Things were great! The only annoying part was that I kept sneezing all the time and having to blow my nose. Unfortunately that hasn't gone away, and it feels like its actually getting worse.. go figure.
Ahhh, but lets not forget the back pain & lack of comfort during sleep. My upper back started killing me about 2 months back and not much would help relieve the nagging constant pain (well a nice back massage from the hubby didn't hurt :) I had the pain before, back in my college days and every so often at work, but not as often as now. My husband blames my "jungle purse" which I must admit is on the heavy side, and the side I carry it on (right) is the side where my back does hurt.
Before getting pregnant I attended Pilates and yoga classes, which helped relieve all my back pain pretty much. However, since I cant do those classes anymore, and because of the growing baby my back pain is in attack mode, and how! Its worse then ever and more frequent then ever!
So ladies, if you have back pain pre-pregnancy, trust me, it'll come back to haunt you,.. in my case, my jungle purse is haunting me now.
just go invest in a nice small cute purse, trust me this back pain is so not worth it. I think I will finally take my own advice, tomorrow or day after (I need to find that cute purse first!! :)
