The start of a better feeling starts during the second trimester of pregnancy. Mood swings should be lessen same as the nausea and fatigue. This is a good time to go on vacation or prepare for the changes that will happen in you physically.
In this trimester, expect that your breast and belly will be larger than on the first trimester. Stretchmarks will be visible during this stage and a moisturizer will help. This is also the start of rapid gain weight so you may feel the need to wear maternity dress.
You’ll start to notice fetal movements during the second trimester. Mark your calendar whenever you feel your baby is moving because your doctor might ask you about it on your next visit. Leg cramps often occur in women with insufficient calcium and potassium intake.
