I have met the 6 month mark! Man, I can't believe I have made it this far...I am still "tired" but it isn't the exhaustion anymore. From all I have heard from other mothers, the 2nd trimester is the best in terms of energy. I have three weeks left of the 2nd trimester and I still have alot to do!
I feel the little guy all the time. He is pretty active during the day and quiet during the night - thank goodness! Between our two dogs who are stuck to me like glue - they must sense something - and my husband who could communicate with dolphins from our bedroom he snores so loud I need all the sleep I can get. I finally made Jeremy bring home some ear plugs after I spent a night on the couch when he was sick...now, I can't hear a thing!!! :)
Some things I have learned thus far as a first time preggo:
1. It really is true - sleep alot - forget about the laundry, dishes, etc. and sleep! You need it!
2. No matter how many times I hear, "you finally look pregnant and not chubby", it doesn't get easier, I still want to slap the commenter.
3. Hormones make me PSYCHOTIC. I don't like this ride, I wanna get off!
4. You really need a support group of other mommies - it has been pretty lonely for me. None of my friends here are pregnant. Which leads into:
5. Life for other people goes on and they are not always going to ask if you are okay or need anything. You have to be your own cheerleader sometimes.

That is hilarious sounds like all is well and you have some old peeps cheerleading on the side for ya. We just let you have those relaxing sleepy yawn moments but we are here and you won't believe how many moms and babys come out of no-where when you least expect it...When I had my baby shower most in attendance were all prego ...go figure!
