I told my HS students that I was pregnant at 13 weeks. A very sweet boy called me over during independent work time and asked if I was in my second trimester. What a weird response from a kid, right?

But apparently he’s not the only one of us confused!

I did not feel better from the nausea and exhaustion until 30 weeks or so, and by then all that happened was that my HG/nausea dissipated was replaced with sciatica and constant acid reflux that made it impossible for me to lay all the way down.

Some people just have miserable pregnancies. I remember being told frequently "oh it gets better in the second trimester" while I was IN the second trimester. Every pregnancy is different.
