 I guess you can say that my first trimester has gone by pretty smoothly. Even though I did feel nauseous most of the time, I never actually puked so I am thankful for that.  This first trimester has flown by, which is bitter-sweet to me. I am already starting to feel much better now that I just started my 2nd trimester, YAY!. So far, I can honestly say I love being pregnant. Do I love feeling nauseous and irritable at times, no, but I remember how blessed I am to be growing this little miracle inside of me and I appreciate every little ache and pain. When I stop and think about everything that is happening inside my body, feel so incredibly blessed. I will admit I get chills reading about it, it is all so fascinating. God is good!  I am looking forward to my belly getting bigger because it means my little peanut is getting bigger! So here’s to the 2nd trimester!!
