Which trimester is this?

Well, here we are at 15 weeks pregnant. I want to put up all of the pregnancy posts but we wanted to make sure to tell family first so that it's not a surprise when we put up the posts (or I make some comment on Facebook). There is still one branch that doesn't know. That seems a little silly since I'm in my second trimester, so hopefully that news will be shared soon.

Speaking of trimesters, it doesn't seem much like I'm in the second right now. Last week I was still able to wear 'normal' clothes. I'm not saying I was comfortable, I'm just saying that it happened. And two weeks ago I saw a friend for the first time in a year who commented "Look at you, no baby bump this year!" She was quickly corrected, I can't have her thinking I'm fat. That's how most people are looking at me right now. It does depend on the outfit but I'm definitely at a point where most people want to ask if I'm pregnant but are still a little too afraid.

On the flip side, I already have several third trimester tendencies. I crave certain foods. I already need Tums, especially with all of the bending I do to talk to the kids or to pick up Josie. I already have insomnia. It's not every night, but it's not uncommon for me to wake up and toss and turn for a couple hours.

Tomorrow is my second doctor's visit so hopefully everything will go smoothly.

We haven't fallen off the face of the earth! Between packing, moving, unpacking and lack of internet we have not been able to blog. But unpacking is nearly done and the lack of internet has been remedied. More to come soon!
