Farewell 1st Trimester

I'm now in my second trimester!  It is crazy to think that I'm 1/3 through the pregnancy.  These past couple of weeks (since I have been off school) have seemed to drag by, but I'm sure once I get back to school, January will be here before I know it.  So just as all the books have said, the symptoms have started to phase themselves out the past couple of weeks.  The only thing that is driving me crazy is these stupid antibiotics I'm on.  I have to take them  FOUR times a day!!!  So add in my prenatal vitamins and all I'm doing all day is taking gel cap pills.  To make matters worse, the antibiotics have to be taken on an empty stomach, 1 hour before I eat or 2 hours after I eat, and the vitamin has to be taken with food.  Everything has to be timed just right so I can make sure I'm eating, taking the antibiotic, and taking my vitamin.  I even have to take a pill in the middle of the night, which isn't a huge deal since I'm up every two-three hours to go to the bathroom anyway.  I'll manage though!  40 minutes until my next pill and 5 days until my last!!!
