I've noticed over the past couple days I feel starved even after I've eaten. I'm finally free of the 24/7 nausea and the fatigue ... so I've just been snacking on strawberries or fresh veggies or pretzels throughout the day so that I don't have that 'OMG I'm starved!' feeling. =D
I can vouch for the discovery channel thing. I have satellite and before I put it on any kind of baby show on discovery or TLC I read the description, it there is anything even slightly less than positive, I dont watch it. I am sure that your baby is fine, and while you are right that a h/b doesnt mean everything is wonderful and peachy, it does say a lot, and it does tell you that your baby is alive and doing well. You are definatly in your second trimester, that starts at 13 weeks. It is normal for you to start feeling better, and for your appetite to go up, it sounds like you are eating healthy foods, so I think that you are fine. Congratulations on feeling good, that is wonderful!
