I made it this far!

The 2nd trimester has officially begun! Today I am 14 weeks preggo. I surprisingly feel more energetic today and have only gagged a couple times. I had a fried chicken sandwich and shared fries with Bobby and the baby actually allowed me to keep all of that down! Sprite helps so much; it's my go-to drink all day every day if I'm not drinking water. I have to munch on something every 2 hours or I'll get nauseous. So around noon I had the sandwich & fries, and now I'm snacking on some grapes. I feel fine. I love strawberries right now & unfortunately I don't think they'll be in season much longer now that Fall is here. Boo. Our next ultrasound isn't until November 22nd at 10am and I'll be 18 1/2 weeks along by then. We find out the sex of the baby that day! I'm excited! I just want to name this little critter already. I really can't wait to actually feel he/she move. I haven't felt anything out of the ordinary just yet. I'm still down 13 lbs, and haven't gained back any of the weight I've lost yet. I'm not complaining. As long as the baby's ok, I'm ok. I've read that weight gain really should start happening until the 2nd trimester anyway so all is well. I'm assuming I may have more of an appetite soon so that could be why. I'm rarely hungry as it is so I can't imagine just magically being hungry but whatever. I'm just relieved that the first trimester is over!!
