2nd Trimester

It's officially the first day of my second trimester and boy do I feel energized, not really, but everyone says I will soon. I'll be waiting. Here is the update from babycenter on what is happening with the baby:

Welcome to the second trimester! This week's big developments: Your baby can now squint, frown, grimace, pee, and possibly suck his thumb. Thanks to brain impulses, his facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another. His kidneys are producing urine, which he releases into the amniotic fluid around him — a process he'll keep up until birth. He can grasp, too, and if you're having an ultrasound now, you may even catch him sucking his thumb. In other news: Your baby's stretching out. From head to bottom, he measures 3 1/2 inches — about the size of a lemon — and he weighs 1 1/2 ounces.

My clothes are getting somewhat snug now, so it's time to start searching for some relief. The one thing I really need is a maternity suit for work, anybody know where I can find a great suit?

A lemon, yahoo! You're working right through the produce department!
I don't know about a suit...maybe ebay or Craig's List?
