Feeling a little down

in 2nd Trimester

Totally for the wrong reasons but I am not feeling all that pregnant! I never had morning sickness or anything like that so it was never a glaring symptom for me. I had been slightly more tired but that has gone away now, and my acne is even clearing up. I really don't have a bump yet which makes me sad and I haven't felt any flutters. I went at 12 weeks 1 day and everything looked wonderful and I know I am young and healthy and after the 1st tri if things looked good they are more likely to continue along that route but I just wish I felt more pregnant. Maybe anybody in my situation can give me encouragement that it will come in time, or anybody who is much further along and now have beautiful bumps to show off.

    I think you just need to realize that you will DEFINITELY start to show off a beautiful bump soon.  Until then, try to be thrilled that you feel great and have the energy to get ready for the baby to come.  I didn't really know what I was feeling last time until 20 weeks and it seemed like forever.

    I was impatient at first, and then I realized how many people spend the 2nd half of pregnancy wishing they weren't so big and uncomfortable.  I love my bump and I love feeling movement more than anything and at this point I still have 18 weeks to enjoy it.  I guess my point is, like pp said, enjoy still having your body be yours and the things you can still do.  Eventually it will happen for you and you'll have plenty of time to enjoy it.

    I haven't felt pregnant really at all this time around.  In the beginning I kept forgetting I was pregnant!  You'll get your bump and people will start to notice {which isn't always a good thing, lol}.  I know it's tough but one of these days you'll be so ready to be done that you won't believe you ever wished you had a belly Stick out tongue
