Pregnancy: What to Expect in Your Second Trimester

Usually in your second trimester of pregnancy your energy will increase, and your anxiety over losing your baby subsides.  It’s an exciting time because you will begin to look pregnant rather than just feel bigger (like in the first trimester).  Also, you will typically begin to feel the baby’s movements, and if  you chose you can find out the sex of your baby.  It continues to be important that you eat healthy and exercise.  Instead of focusing on your weight focus on nourishing your baby.  Remember that being pregnant is temporary, so it’s very important that you take good care of  yourself, and it will translate to your baby.
