Food, Glorious Food

Well, I've made it past the difficulty of the first trimester. I am now 16 weeks pregnant. Finally, I can eat. I can out out to restaurants without fear of smelling or seeing a certain food and rushing to the restroom. In fact, I can't get ENOUGH food. I haven't developed any weird cravings yet, but I'm hungry and thirsty at all times of the day. Luckily I haven't gained much weight yet. I don't want to gain too much and be unhealthy. Right now, the doctor says I'm progressing well.

I should be able to feel some movement in about two weeks, and in about a month I should be able to find out the gender of the baby. I'm very excited about taking that next step, and TRULY feeling like I'm carrying my child.
