Where, oh where?

This weekend, David and I will be celebrating the beginning of our 4th month of pregnancy...even though I am doing all the work :). Sometimes I wish it was him that went through weeks of vomiting. He'll get his share, no worries about that (hint, 3 am diaper changes...). However, WHERE oh WHERE is my 2nd trimester energy boost? After every book I have read and every article on pregnancy, everyone says at the start of my 2nd trimester I should feel 100% better and have tons of energy. Tons? I feel like I am going backwards. I felt like I had energy in the first trimester, it was just masked by trips to the sink. Now, I feel like a 3 hour nap is mandatory...everyday. Then, I am in the bed before 11 usually, which is very abnormal for me. So, can anyone tell me what the deal is with that?

Did I mention I have my OB apppointment September 28th for the ultrasound to tell if it is a boy or girl? OH YEAH...I probably have a billion times already. Hehe. So excited. I can not wait to actually go shopping for either pink or blue, because we all know that stores do not sell neutral (ugh). Seriously, every store I have gone into either has pink this and that or blue this and that. No whites or creams. Oh dear mother-in-law who made my amazingly beautiful wedding dress, my christmas wish is for you to make me a white hat, bootie, and blanket for the little one. K, thanks.
