In case you missed it, I talked all about my recent pregnancy symptoms in my second trimester recap post yesterday. Similar to when I shared my first trimester recap & first trimester essentials post, I wanted to follow yesterday’s post with my second trimester essentials. These are all the things that helped me make it through the sweet spot months of pregnancy! Some are the same as the first trimester & some are new depending on my symptoms. I’m getting into them more below!
Second Trimester Essentials
Some of the second trimester essentials or things that I’ve just been loving & using a ton the last few months are linked up below. The collage is shoppable, so just click on any photo & you’ll be taken straight to that product’s page.
Getting comfortable to sleep is definitely becoming more of a challenge, so I have loved my pregnancy pillow more than ever. My workouts have definitely slowed down (read more on my pregnancy workout routine), so the one pound weights are a necessity. I use them on my wrists & ankles. As the belly grows, so does my need for the oil! I’m definitely going through more of it now that it has more surface area to cover.
For more of my symptoms & remedies, see my second trimester recap post. I break down all the symptoms I had with remedies for all of them including pelvic pain, congestion, swelling, bathroom issues, breast pain, insomnia, shortness of breath, sensitive gums, & more. Gah, isn’t pregnancy glamorous?! haha
For more on pregnancy, see my first trimester essentials, my third trimester essentials, & our baby registry. If you have any specific questions or I can help at all, please feel free to reach out. There were so many women who helped me along the way during pregnancy & into motherhood. I am forever grateful for each tip, encouragement, & piece of advice. I’d love to pay it forward! XO
