Week 16

Well, things have been relatively quiet over the past month with my pregnancy. We have had some testing done and so far everything with the baby is normal. Phew!

I'm not feeling sick anymore, although I need to make sure I eat and drink enough or I do have a tendency to start gagging. ;) Not pleasant, especially out in public so I always try to keep some food and a beverage handy!!

The baby is supposed to be the size of an apple now. And that means that most of my pants are starting to get a little tight. I'm not quite ready to make that transition into maternity clothes quite yet but I don't think I'll be able to hold off until after Christmas like I had hoped.

Here's the little more info about what's been going on:

How far along? 16 weeks
Total weight gain: 7 pounds
Maternity clothes? Not yet but will probably need them in a few weeks
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Almost back to my normal sleep pattern. Some days I need a nap or go to bed early but not as often. ;)
Best moment this week: Hearing from the doctor that the baby is doing fine.
Movement: I think so. Much earlier than when I first felt Saryn move.
Food cravings: No real cravings yet. If something sounds good I eat it!
Gender: Not sure and we won't find out until after Christmas.
Name: Haven't talked about it yet
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Drinking Rum in my Egg Nog. lol!
Weekly Wisdom: Be around happy/positive people - they make you feel good!
Milestones: Happy to be in the second trimester.
