How far along? 16 weeks, 1 day
How big is baby? about 4" long and the size of an avocado (hopefully less green)
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Up 1.5 to hit the weight gain my Dr. recommended by my 16wk visit. I have cheese to thank for that.
Next Appointment: Tomorrow
Maternity Clothes: Huge sale at Gap Maternity and scored a bunch of new clothes tonight.
Stretch Marks: Nope, but I've purchased 3 kinds of lotion to avoid this and soothe the insane itching I have now.
Sleep: Work is still keeping me up nights and giving me headaches.
Best Moment This Week: Shopping for cribs with the Mr.
Movement: I think I felt the baby for the first time today!! I'm still not sure if that's what it was, but it happened a couple times, so now I keep waiting for it to happen again.
Food Cravings: Still pickles (so cliche) and more sweets lately. Oh, and pretty much anything I see anyone else eating that's not seafood.
Planning/Preparation: We started shopping for nursery furniture and began looking through a baby name book.
Belly Button In/Out: In
Gender: Well, if it's not a girl, I'm beginning to think the Mr. and I might be the only ones who aren't disappointed. LOTS of boys in both families. I still think it's a boy- the Mr. doesn't have a hunch.
What I Miss: Coming Soon- a post with more details.
What I'm Looking Forward To: Hearing the baby's heartbeat tomorrow.
Contractions: Nope
Milestones? Spending 35 minutes on the treadmill and running the majority of that time...ah, felt so good.

We will NOT be disappointed if she is a boy, silly! We know what to do with boys : ) Again, please tell me that Bernadette was a joke....
ReplyDeleteBernadette, eh? :)
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you're 16 weeks already!
PS, my word verification for my first comment was "poozoo". Thank you for that.
ReplyDeleteI want to hear more about what you miss!
ReplyDeleteCol- Kidding on both, of course.
ReplyDeleteAllie- I think next time Lily has a blowout, Justin should yell "POOZOO" from the other room instead of "EXPLOSIVO"!
WOW! Have you determined if what you're feeling is indeed the somersaulting avocado?
ReplyDeleteI can still remember it myself!
We'll be equally thrilled if it's a boy or a girl, & not the least bit disappointed. We just want to start shopping!!!!!
Did you find furniture?
We are actually counting on a boy as we have already entered the five of them as a basketball team in the 2018 Olympics.
