11wks5days today! So close to the 12 wk mark I've finally been able to drink my morning cup of coffee without feeling jittery and my exhaustion seems to be subsiding. Can't wait for the 12 week mark so we can finally tell everyone. So far only parents, siblings, and a few friends know. Can't wait to make the official announcement!!!

Yay 12 weeks today. Like so many others, still battling nausea daily, but down to puking a few times a week, as opposed to a few times a day, so I'll take what I can get!.

I had to go to pregnology and type in my EDD to figure out how far along I was :bag   I just lost count and couldnt remember what week i was on. 12 weeks, 4 days! I count second trimester at 13 weeks, 1 day- Im so close! My nausea has pretty much subsided, and I am hungry!

[rachieface]

I am also 12 weeks today, kind of for the second time.  LOL.  But YAY, I'm for SURE 12 weeks now!   I feel alright, not my normal energy level and still some nausea, but so much better than several weeks ago!  It's a gradual climb up out of 1st trimester yuckies.

12 weeks today!!!! yay!!! I've been having spotting on and off which makes it harder to relax but somehow i feel much better now that we've reach this point!!!

I could eat a bakery right now and I hate bread products!  Glad you're feeling good!!!!

13 Weeks today!
 

[Adaline'sMama]

Yep, I was 13 weeks today too, and I can now officially say Im in my second trimester!

I'm excited and overwhelmed. Im glad to be rid of nausea and on to more energy, but a bit overwhelmed at the idea of needing to have everything done in the next 12 weeks. The advice I keep getting from twin mamas is to get everything done by the first day of your third trimester, so im going to be busting my ass to get it all done in the next three months.

My ob told me that 13 weeks is considered the 2nd trimester, but 12 weeks is such a psychological milestone and the time that I've always been told it's safe to tell (even though I told a lot of people already) that I'm celebrating today! In fact, I woke up SO HAPPY to be 12 weeks. I'm still feeling nauseus in the evenings, but nothing like the all-day hell I was going through. I'm still exhausted and tend to get headaches and heartburn... but I have a baby bump now :-D

I told dh we're going to celebrate by window shopping for baby things... and you know what, I'm going to celebrate all over again when I "officially" hit the 2nd trimester at 13 weeks

[lilysamsma]

I am excited, because no matter how i am dating it, i am at least 12 weeks now! According to me, i am 13w today, but according to how they.measured at the u/s last month, it is.12w2d....so either way the magical.12 w mark is behind me!

[kdorrain]

I'm there!  12w 5d and so happy.  And we heard the HB yesterday (and I felt movement, too!).  After the MC, I have been very anxious.  We are not doing any interventions or "technology", but decided that a short few moments with Doppler would produce a world of good for mama.  And it has!  I'm just emotional with joy that this little one is strong and moving and alive!  We have told a few people today and will tell our girls tonight!  

I would love the m/s to end (dude, I puked while brushing my teeth today!), but I feel like it's still confirming the aliveness of the LO.  I'm able to eat a little now but am still oh, so tired!

12 weeks and 2 days 

Phew.

Our celebratory purchase was a tiny onesie. 

[josie423]

I'm 13+3 now. Yay!!!! I've been feeling some movement, which just makes me melt! 

[Brambleberry]

Oh! I almost forgot to post here!  My MS is still an issue (but definitely getting better), so I haven't been feeling too "2nd tri" yet .  But still, I am super excited to get past 12 weeks and have heard the heart beat and everything.  DD is really obsessed with the smilies, so I'm going to go all out with them here, and let her help pick some out!

                                  

[loveandgarbage]

LOL Brambleberry, my kids love those smilies too. Every time they catch me posting we have to look through the whole list of them!

I am 15 weeks today. WOW! The only hold over I have from the first trimester is exhaustion. It actually just seems to be getting worse. Maybe I'll just have a tired pregnancy this time around, but I hope not!

Yay! So am I - my appetite is still "off" and I'm still tired but hopefully things will pick up soon.  I'm not sure if I've felt movement yet or if it's just gas  LOL!  Hard to know when it's your first.

Good to hear, My pessimistic Dr said I wouldn't feel anything till 20 weeks. I knew better but held my tongue. I'm hoping I can feel something early too. Must be so thrilling!

[Brambleberry]

Love the onesie, Typebug.  It's so hard to find good gender-neutral clothes!  We had so much yellow stuff when DD was born, and yellow looks terrible with her complexion :}.  Trying to find more green and dark brown for this one.  I think you'll like the snap-front, too.  pull-over-the-head shirts are such a pain with newborns I don't know why they even make them.  Same with pants, to a lesser degree.  DD didn't wear pants until she was able to stand up for us to put them on LOL.

[Jenny01]

Onesies! We bought this one right after we found out, as a creative way to tell my mom.  I gave it to her as a present.
