Thank you 2nd trimester!

laurstarx · September 2013

My appetite is back! I still can't eat everything.. But I can eat! I can also brush my teeth without vomiting.. Which is a plus because puking after you brush your teeth is kind of counter productive!

Who else is feeling way better since entering the 2nd trimester? My girls are still sore and RLP is starting.. Oh how it hurts to sneeze

ugh. I wish. Yesterday and today I haven't puked all morning, which is good, but my appetite is still nothing and food still disgusts me. Really hoping this phase is over soon!

Send some of that magic second tri to me! I'm 15 weeks still getting sick still disgusted by food still constantly popping zofran and colace :-( I'm ready to feel good!

Me!! Meeeeeeee! 14w today and I finally feel like a human being. I even went out and had a seafood dinner with DH on Friday night. 2 weeks ago I would have projectiled onto someone's halibut if I'd even walked into the restaurant. So...yayayayay. Still no sex drive/still tired, but who flippin' cares.

Thank the lord The Puke Is Gone!

Yup! I

second tri so much! It is a little scary to be feeling so much better and not showing or feeling anything, but I do so enjoy feeling like a human. I hope everyone is feeling better soon!!

About the puking - my dentist told me during 1st tri that when I get sick to just rinse my mouth with water, and wait at least 15 minutes, but better 30 minutes, before brushing. She says she knows it can be gross but brushing your teeth right after can actually brush the acid you produce into your teeth!

I vomited when brushing my teeth my Doctor recommended using toms toothpaste. Since I switched I haven't thrown up once! It has a mild flavor so it's not so over powering! Good luck!

I feel a lot better... Still can't stomach the thought of eating chicken, but I am one hungry lady. I actually woke up the other night to pee around 3am and made a PB&J sandwich. Im 14 weeks and found out the other day in having twins

When the babies are hungry I'm gonna eat!
Oh... Still having trouble brushing my teeth, haven't vomited at all, but I come very close to it.

I think the ms might be gone this is my longest stretch without it. I am having a lot of back pain which I normally don't have in real life. I think I am going to have to start having a heating pad at work. I am also very worn out but not really able to nap.

Ughhhh I can't eat chicken either and that's usually what my whole diet consists of

Dena526 · September 2013

I've tried grilled, breaded, with different sauce- I honestly can't do it... Even writing about it is making my stomach turn a little. Hoping it passes soon.

ALHolli · September 2013

I'm very cautiously feeling just about back to normal. It took 18 weeks with DD, so I'm not quite clearing myself yet lol. But I can eat usually whatever I have now, not just what I crave.

kaking78 · September 2013

Hooray for feeling human! I love being able to eat like a normal person again.

I still can't stand mint flavored toothpaste. My dentist said that it's ok to use kid's toothpaste with a non-mint flavor, as long as it still has fluoride in it. I've been using something flavored "bubble berry" - whatever that is - since week 8.

Ditto! I feel 1000% better and can eat just about anything, besides chicken. And I ate grilled chicken at least 3-4x/week before getting pregnant :-/ Ah well, I'm happy to feel human again!

boymom312 · September 2013

I'm 16 weeks and feel pretty good. I have achy joints, occasional headaches, and still have problems brushing the teeth though. I've tried everything....my normal toothpaste, strawberry flavored toothpaste, dipping the brush in mouthwash & brushing with just that, and on the really bad days, just brushing with water. I didn't think I'd ever say this but I miss my dentist!

BrideNamedMeg · September 2013

I still get tired pretty easily, but I feel way better than I did a few weeks ago. My first two pregnancies took much longer for the nausea to subside, I'm glad my body is finally figuring things out!

FroeschleN · September 2013

Gosh! I guess I'm not the only one who has an aversion to chicken, I told DH that I think it comes from the devil. I haven't thrown up once, but was nauseous all first tri, and now I'm not sleeping the whole day and don't feel sick

, but chicken is still off the list. I love second tri!
