The sudden kick and flutter movements, the wave of nausea, your head feeling like you are in a whirl wind are the wonderful feelings of motherhood to be. I am 20 weeks and 3 days. Pregnancy has been quite an experience. The minute I found out I was pregnant through an at home pregnancy test, I was more in tune with my body. A few weeks prior to finding out, I thought I had the flu. I was fatigue, warm, and could not get out of bed.
The first trimester, was the worst feeling of my life. It felt like I had a permanent hang over. I woke up barfing and went to bed the same way. I was overwhelmed with feelings of sadness for no reason. I stopped cooking, cleaning, and doing homework from my Event Planning course. I couldn’t even go to work because of the weak feeling in my legs, the weight loss, and my pressure was little lower than usual. I had no choice but to take a few weeks off from work.
My second trimester came rather fast. I went back to work feeling refreshed. I had more energy and was able to keep most of my food in my digestive system where it belonged. My tummy was finally poking through and I was off that awkward in between stage. The influx of-Is it a boy or girl kept pouring in! I’ve been told that I have that “glow.” Although all the symptoms I felt in the first trimester have not departed, I am slowly am finding myself being able to be me again. The zombie stage and sluggish mannerism is slowly by surely fading away. A new wave of symptoms are now arriving.
