Week 20 - Halfway there

I am supposedly right at the halfway mark. 20 weeks.

How do I feel? This is a question lots of people ask me.
I feel relatively great. Considering a month ago I was throwing up my toes at least once a week, things are much better. I don't get tired quite as quickly as I used to and I can eat many more things. Veggies don't creep me out anymore, for instance. Pizza is still in question. I'm too scared to attempt it to see if it's ok. My nose isn't quite as sensitive either. I don't get offended by soap or deodorant smells like I used to, and air fresheners aren't quite as bad as they used to be.
It used to be that by 5pm I was exhausted and had to take a nap. If I did anything remotely physical I was tired after an hour tops. Now I can go several hours before I get too worn out to continue.
My belly is now rounded and poking out and I look pregnant, not just like I ate too many bon bons.
So all in all, much better.
The only bads are that I can't seem to shake this cold I've had for two weeks now, and sleeping.
I'm a back sleeper. I sleep flat on my back with my arms overhead. Now that I'm well into my 2nd trimester, this is a no-no. So I'm trying to sleep on my sides, but I just can't get comfortable that way. So I really only get a good nights sleep every other night or so.
But I would take a little discomfort at night over being nauseous all day like before!!
