The second trimester isn't what you think it is
Everyone says the second trimester is the easy one.
The honeymoon phase.
The part where pregnancy suddenly becomes enjoyable.
But... what if that's not everyone's experience?
In this episode of I'm the Xaddy, I look back on my second trimester now that I'm nearly at the end of pregnancy, sharing the moments that changed everything from finally feeling our baby move to navigating anatomy scans, changing body image, and the strange reality of becoming visibly pregnant as a non-binary parent.
My wife also joins me as we answer questions about pregnancy, parenting, our relationship and preparing to become Mummy and Xaddy.
Whether you're pregnant, trying to conceive, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about what pregnancy really feels like outside the highlight reel, this episode is an honest, funny and reassuring conversation about a trimester that isn't always as easy as people say.
