16 weeks

How far along? 16 Weeks…well, I’ll be 17 weeks on Saturday.
Total weight gain:
-1 pound…I lost a bunch of weight the first trimester.
Maternity clothes? yes, maternity pants but wearing my normal shirts, yoga pants and t-shirts
Stretch marks? no
Sleep: great…but peeing at least once every night
Best moment this week:
We just switched doctors and hospitals this week and the experience there was 12,568 times better than our old doctor….not to mention better ultrasound equipment. It was just precious seeing our little baby’s hand. Here.
Miss Anything? Being able to sleep on my stomach.
Movement: none
Food cravings: beef enchiladas, Greek salad, vanilla pudding
Anything making you queasy or sick: smell of coffee…still
Gender: It’s a surprise!
Labor Signs:Β No
Symptoms: Occasional headache, and finally relief from heartburn with the help of Prilosec
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off?Β on
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and so thankful that I’m feeling better!
Looking forward to: Christmas! I love seeing and spending time with our families!

P.S. I really think the majority of my bump is bloating at the moment. But, my belly is starting to get harder to the touch, which I’m pretty sure is the baby. Plus, baby is already the size of an avocado!!! I can’t believe it! πŸ™‚
