16 Weeks...Late again...

Figured I better get this posted before my 17 week post!

I'm 16 weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: I’m 16 Weeks, 4 days

Size of Baby: Baby Astacio is the size of an avocado (About 4.5 in long & 3.5 oz)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 2-3 lbs-but I think it fluctuates a little!

Maternity Clothes: I wore my maternity jeans for the first time the other night, simply because I knew I would be eating a lot & didn’t want to cut off circulation with my regular jeans after stuffing myself! HA! I have to admit I’m running out of stuff that fits comfortably. (Last weekend I wore a dress that fit me perfectly in December, but this time I had to leave the side unzipped a little & wear a cardigan over it…shh!)

Gender: Oh my gosh, I can’t wait—we now find out TOMORROW!

Movement: Feeling him/her wiggle a lot at night, especially when sitting still or lying down...so cool.

Sleep: Still sleeping great!

What I miss: Just can’t wait to have a Diet Coke! (I decided I’m rewarding myself with one as soon as Lent is over, then I’ll limit it again through September!)

Cravings: Still on the fruity kick. Oddly enough, I love fruit roll-ups right now & am seriously craving watermelon season!

Symptoms: Nothing really, just a growing bump!

Best Moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat again last week at my appointment. It’s still so awesome. I’m also relieved that the doc says I’m perfectly healthy, and all my bloodwork was great & sugar/protein levels are also great. J

I will be sure to post when we find out tomorrow night & will add some updates pictures! Have a good night, y'all!
