I am loving being in the second trimester. If it wasn't for my growing tummy, I would barely know that I was pregnant. I have my energy back and I don't feel nauseated anymore. I also started working part time at Rick's recruiting office as a tutor to help people prepare for and pass the ASVAB exam.
My doctor had my get a flu shot a little while back. This was the first flu shot I've ever had. I usually don't get them because it always seems like everyone that gets the shot comes down with the worst flu! But, I figured I had better get it, just to be safe (even though I loathe needles). I also went in to get more blood drawn. I hated that as well.
Next week, on Friday, we are going in for our first ultrasound so that we can find out if it's a boy or a girl. We are really excited to find out! Rick is anxious to pick a name for the baby-to-be so that he can get a new tattoo with baby's name. ;)
I haven't really felt any definite kicking from baby yet, but I am hoping that will happen soon. I did throw up for the first time in my pregnancy a couple of weeks ago. I think the problem was that I took my prenatal pill in the morning, instead of at night as I usually do. About a half an hour later, I threw up five times. Since then I haven't had any problems with that.
The picture of me above was taken yesterday. I'm currently 18 weeks along.

Misty! You look gorgeous! Congrats on your second tri. That's my fav one by far... and Merry Christmas! I love quiet Christmases. Love ya!
You look amazing lady! Congrats...it's so much easier to figure out when you're feeling the baby move the second pregnancy. I'm sure you feel it but just don't know. Don't worry chica soon enough that baby will be stretching out in your rib cage and you won't remember what it was like to not feel it move! After I deliver, I have to adjust to not having the baby move anymore. Can't wait to find out what your having. Good luck!
