Are you enjoying 1st tri? (Non-clicky poll)

ohashlet · May 2010

Or just counting the days until 2nd? I'm countin' down. More than halfway now, and July 10th can't come fast enough.

mbh10220 · May 2010

OH my gosh I can't wait until 2nd tri...mostly just because I'm still so worried about a loss. I know just making it to 2nd tri doesn't make it go away, but I think I would feel better...

atdowns · May 2010

well part of me cant wait to get big and pregnant and feel kicks and see pictuers and hold baby and have family time at showers.. another part of me fears the second trimester very much and is just relishing this more secure time.

eek. what happens in 2nd tri??? This is my 1st pregnancy.

jaejaevee · May 2010

Its hard for me to relax about everything until I have my first appointment which won't be for 2 weeks. With DS, 2nd tri was definitely my favorite part so I am looking forward to that.

Marielle0430 · May 2010

The only thing I'm enjoying about 1st Tri, are the weekly ultrasounds (up to 8 weeks). I can't wait for the 4th of July...we'll not only be celebrating Independence Day but we'll also hopefully be moved into a new apartment and be officially in the 2nd tri!

elizjane26 · May 2010

No, I am not really enjoying it right now. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled to be pregnant, I am just scared. I have had two losses in my life and I am just ready for the first u/s in 2 weeks and then 2nd tri when I can tell people and hopefully relax a little.

luckybride1128 · May 2010

I'm def. just waiting for 2nd tri. My first pregnancy resulted in a loss (see siggy) so with the "u/s of doom" looming at the 9w6d mark, I just can't wait to get past it!

happyjc10 · May 2010

I am absolutely enjoying it and I'm incredibly grateful to be pregnant......at the same time, I'm scared.to.death. that something will go wrong.

itsmegin · May 2010

What I am enjoying: it being new and exciting, still fitting into my clothes, the fun of telling certain people, how fabulous my boobs look.

What I am not enjoying: worrying, having to keep it a secret sometimes, how sore my boobs are, and feeling nauseous.

I am excited about 2nd tri because I know it's supposed to be the best part, but I'm not looking forward to the in-between stage of having a big tummy but not an official, obvious baby bump and possibly just looking fat. Especially because I'm going to Hawaii during my 15th week with my adorable, perfect, tan, skinny 16 year old sister-in-law to visit my equally adorable, petite other sister-in-law. Not looking forward to being the big girl when I go to the beach with the two of them!

you summed it up perfectly.

izzourclue · May 2010

I am enjoying being pregnant, but there is just so much worry in 1st tri that makes it hard.

willamina28 · May 2010

It's OK. Not the best not the worst. At least with 2nd Tri a lot of your m/c worries aren't as frequent. (I'd imagine). I think mainly I'm looking forward to my u/s tomorrow. Then I can tell my friends and family about baby. The secret has been the most difficult thing for me.

nurseJK · May 2010

The reflux and nausea is making it tough to enjoy this period. I hate to admit it but I am feeling like time is dragging by and want 2nd tri to be here already. I am extremely greatful to be pg and will take all the symptoms God throws at me but... erggh! Also, the worries due to my prior loss make me long for 2nd tri.

This is exactly how I feel. I'm very excited to be pregnant but I am almost trying to avoid anything baby (websites, clothing, etc.) until I'm further along.

MrsPreK · May 2010

I feel same as always so I'm not really counting down to anything.

alisonjoy80 · May 2010

Not really. I'm nervous something will go wrong. I am nauseated all day. I feel like a walrus.

I'm excited for what's to come, though.

YogaMomNJ · May 2010

Not at all. I hate feeling so sick and tired. I just want to feel myself again. I'm not being a good mom to my daughter and it kills me because I want to make the most of our time as a family of 3. I'm counting down until the 2nd trimester - I felt so great last time around once 14-15 weeks hit. I'm also pretty over spotting and worrying.

AppleMomma · May 2010

I'm hoping and praying I get out of first tri & into 2nd. 1st tri is freaking me out right now.

uklawgirl · May 2010

I am looking forward to getting to second tri because I am so nervous about having another m/c. But I am feeling good so far and still fitting in all my clothes so that's a good thing.

hbkises · May 2010

I don't want to rush my pregnancy but I want out of this "danger zone"..I know they still happen later in pregnancy but the majority do happen in 1st tri. Also, 2nd tri is much more filled with fun milestones.

tigerali · May 2010

Nope, not enjoying it at all! I hate feeling sick and exhausted and not having the energy to play with dd in the afternoons because I am so worn out. I am having mama guilt because I want to have fun with her, but I am just so tired.

The throwing up has started early, and I am so much more anxious about this pregnancy than my first. I just want to get to our u/s next week and see that heart beating!!

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS!!!!!!!

girllennon · May 2010

I am looking foward to the 2nd tri, so that way my risk is decreased. But as far as the 1st tri goes, I have my good days and bad, but no m/s and I'm feeling a lot better now than I did when I got my BFP (I felt HORRIBLE then).

My 2nd tri starts on July 5th (just 4 days before DH's b-day), but I believe that date will be adjusted b/c I O late (around CD 18 or 19) and have slightly longer cycles (avg b/t 35 and 38 days).

NikkiAnderson907 · May 2010

Abso-stinkin'-lutely! Every time I get nauseous or am exhausted or have another pimple sprout up or have to look at my fat bloated belly I get excited. Yeah, it sucks, but at the same time YAY! With each new symptom I just keep thinking, my baby is growing!

Kaylie Plus 1 · May 2010

I wish the 1st trimester was over. Cannot wait until I reach the 2nd!

IncogNeato · May 2010

My pants don't fit, I'm eating like a horse to keep the nausea at bay, and this secret is getting harder and harder to keep. Plus I'm super nervous still. If I could fast forward until2nd tri I totally would. I'm tired of finding excuses not to drink - people are figuring it out and I want to just announce it but don't trust it yet. Plus I still have 4 weeks until my first US. Come on 12 weeks!

BekW2009 · May 2010

2nd tri, bring it! I am looking forward to feeling better and having more energy! Also finding out the sex and actually starting to LOOK pregnant instead of just feeling hungover without the alcohol!

mchupie · May 2010

I am eagerly hoping for 2nd tri to come since the miscarriage risk goes down significantly. I am enjoying being pregnant, but not enjoying the uncertainty. I can't wait to have an u/s.

Mrs.LD813 · May 2010

Well, I'm PSYCHED to be pregnant, so if the whole pregnancy had to be like this, I would take it. That said, I really CANNOT WAIT until 2nd tri! Less to worry about, and no more m/s and tiredness (at least I hope!!).

calhoun05 · May 2010

2nd tri rocks. For most people the morning sickness dissipates. You can tell everyone, and you actually start looking pregnant - well, except for that super skinny girl in those photos that were posted - but it's the "cute" pregnant and not the "oh my god you have to be 2 weeks overdue or something" pregnant. You find out the sex, if you so choose. You can start planning the nursery and the registry and all that great stuff without thinking you're going to jinx yourself. It was a great time in my life the first time around and can't wait for it again.

mick64 · May 2010

I'm so happy to be pregnant, but truthfully, 1st tri is not too much fun right now. The all day nausea is draining, and it just makes me feel like not doing anything productive. I'm also still a little on edge about having another loss, so I will be so thrilled to make it into 2nd tri. My first doctor's appointment is in 2 weeks, so that's my countdown for now. I'm trying to take it in smaller chunks, so it doesn't seem to drag so long.

williaw · May 2010

Nope. SO ready for 2nd Tri. Hopefully I will stop worrying about loss so much then. AND we'll get to start picking out baby stuff.

juliane2004 · May 2010

I want to get to the 2nd and 3rd tris so that I can have OB appts, ultrasounds, etc. BUT, with DD I was always waiting for something. Like, I was wasting away the time. So this time, I am trying to enjoy every week.
