2ND TRIMESTER PRACTICAL TIPS | Must-Haves, Symptoms, Weight Gain

This is my second go-around and I gotta say, the 2nd trimester is the best...if you're on your A-game! What's the ideal "A-game"? Well, it has to do with olive oil, a Hydrovolt(lol), and loose fitting bras, haha. Don't worry, I explain everything!

YES!!! thank you for not making it about weight gain and things but how you actually feel, because at the end of the day you can exercise all you want and still feel like a sack of potatoes, all about the lifestyle and what you are doing FOR YOU! i literally love your channel already💛👏🏾

[@margaretmatheny]

Yes! Ah I''m so glad you resonated with that. Those words are so kind and encouraging!!! Thank you!!

[@jozsacsilla]

Love your videos! Thank you for sharing all your pregnancy and mamma things💕

[@margaretmatheny]

Love your message about toxin free living, I resonate so deeply with it! Exposure to contaminated Water, foods, personal care and household products can cause such serious issues long term! Pregnancy or not we should always be careful 🙏

I miss my second trimester. I’m 38 weeks and feeling it for real!!! I love watching other pregnancy updates because every single pregnancy is so different!

[@margaretmatheny]

Oh bless you!!! You’re almost there 🙌🏻. I love watching them too, so many beautiful stories!

[@brandireno8200]

20 weeks today I love your videos

[@margaretmatheny]

Ah congrats! Thanks so much, I enjoy making them!

[@cindaladahling1706]

For the Align pants, how did you choose what size to buy while pregnant? Thanks for another great video!

[@KK.12345]

What brand olive oil do you use?

[@margaretmatheny]

Any authentic, organic brand will be great. Or shea butter works great too. You can buy organic shea butter on amazon too!

20 weeks and 5 days today. My body is sore and I have constant migraines.

[@margaretmatheny]

Acupuncture and chiropractor were my go to's when I wasn't feeling right. Wishing you the best

[@LO1990LO]

I just started watching you because iam pregnant :) I am wondering what you used for birth control after your 1st child?

[@margaretmatheny]

I never used a contraceptive. I use a basal temp thermometer...specifically designed to track fertility.

[@LO1990LO]

@@margaretmatheny this is what I've been looking into. Would you recommend it? Or possibly make a video on your experience 😊

[@hannahe1072]

Unpopular opinion, but second second trimester has been WAY worse than my worse. It’s like my trimesters have been reversed

[@margaretmatheny]

Aw so sorry to hear :(( Hoping you find relief here soon!
