16 Weeks

(This sono pic is from about a month ago)

Pregnancy Highlights:

 

How Far Along: 16 Weeks

Size of baby: About 4.6 inches, 3.5oz....baby is about the size of an avocado

 

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Still at a 10 lb. weight loss....I'm sure that will change real soon though

Maternity Clothes: I wear maternity jeans and pants, but I can still fit into most of my regular tops. I will definitely pull out the maternity tops soon though!

 

Gender: IT'S A GIRL!!!! (We had the Jack or Jill gender blood test done to find out our baby's sex. The test is over 99% accurate, so I'm pretty comfortable telling everyone about our baby girl! We will have a sonogram next month to confirm baby's gender)

 

Movement: I think I may have felt the baby move this week, but nothing strong enough to be sure yet

Sleep: I started sleeping with a pillow between my legs this week and it has made such a big difference.  I'm sleeping MUCH better!!!

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach and WINE (I'll be honest!!!)

Cravings: Food in general...thank goodness for finally having my appetite back!

Symptoms: I'm mostly over the morning (all day) sickness, but every once in awhile I will still get a little sick at my stomach, my face has been breaking out a lot, and I'm exhausted...constantly!

Best Moment this week: Madelyn was kissing my belly and saying "Love You" to the baby last night...it was sooooo sweet!
