thank God! Thursday I suddenly didn't need to lie on a horizontal surface all day, I didn't feel sick to my stomach once (a great blessing!), and I went shopping after the kids were in bed. Which is saying something, because usually, lately, after the kids are in bed, I'm in bed, too. I started putting my pajamas on when they put theirs on...around 6:30 or 7 p.m. But that night, I went shopping.
This morning, I got up and took a shower before I ate breakfast! This may not seem like much of a milestone, and it's how I used to do things before getting pregnant, but I haven't been able to do *anything* in the morning without eating lately, unless I wanted to court the possibility of passing out.
These are huge milestones. Another one: Naomi is sleeping, Hannah is in quiet time, and I...am not completely sacked out! Not to say that I'm giving up my daily nap...but I didn't feel like I needed it today.
Michael, I'm sure, is just worried what comes next. With Hannah, the second trimester was when we did our househunting...well, we've already covered that. With Naomi, the second trimester was when we remodeled our kitchen...well, we're not quite ready for that. Since we're moving in less than two weeks, the second trimester burst of energy will come in handy for that, but what comes after that to satisfy the second trimester need for action and adventure is anyone's guess! :)
