Pregnancy 13 weeks

Today I had an unexpected visit to my OB. I had an appointment set for next week, but I was concerned that I had a bladder infection and didn’t want to wait so I switched it to today! Well, the test came out negative for a UTI, but they are going to culture it longer and see if anything changes, just to be certain. The OB did mention that you often feel a lot more pressure with second pregnancies and commented that my uterus is getting really big so it could just be that pressing on my bladder which is making me feel all the pressure and having to pee so often. I am definitely starting to show already! I got to hear my baby’s heartbeat for the first time which was awesome! I also got my first bout of heartburn last night. Mix that with nausea and it’s not a fun experience. I am still feeling nauseas at times, but mainly what bothers me is that I’m still having major food aversions. It’s ridiculous already. Forget about cooking, I can’t even eat anything. My poor family. LOL! Well, hopefully it will get better soon since CONGRATS to me, I think I am officially in the second trimester now. Yay!

Congrats on hearing the heartbeat!

That's good news that you don't seem to have an infection, and welcome to your second tri!

Congratulations on entering the second trimester! I'm glad it wasn't a UTI (or hopefully not). I was showing by 12 weeks this time (a lot earlier than last time), but now I think I'm about the same size that I was at this point in my previous pregnancy. Guess it all evens out in the end. I've also been dealing with heartburn. It sucks because I didn't have that until well into the third trimester with Helen, but it showed up in the first trimester this time. Thankfully it hasn't been as bad or as often yet. I hope that your morning sickness disappears and the food aversions go away soon! by honeybunny
congratulations on making it into the second trimester! for the heart burn, have you tried sucking on peppermint candies? I lived on those with all three of my pregnancies, and I actually still use them from time to time.

awesome news on hearing the heartbeat!!! I hope that you don't have an UTI. That was part of the reason why Marissa was born a week early.....I had an UTI that wouldn't go away for the life of me! by tommysgirl18
I'll be waiting on those belly pics too!! haha! You were sooo dang cute w/ Jax. Can't wait to see you grow!! Yay!
PS- yay for hearing the HB!!! yay for 2nd tri!!! woohoo!! by IUgrad02
Yay for being in the second trimester!! :love: You got to hear the heart beat!! How fast was it? Sorry about the food advertions, hopefully they will go away. I would suck on ice cubes when I got heart burn, but I really didn't get it that often.

Are we going to see a journal popping up now that your in the second trimester? by shan
