Week 16

 

How far along: 16 weeks

Total Weight Gain: Down about 7 pounds

Maternity Clothes: Loose summer dresses are my favorite item at the moment!!!  I still have a couple pair of jeans that fit and a few more that fit with a good 'ol Bella Band!  But, I am wearing maternity clothes (especially pants) more often.

Sleep: I am still getting up to use the restroom at least twice a night (will that last all pregnancy?!?).  When I am asleep, I am sleeping well.

Best Moment of the Week: We got an extra sneak peek at our little one this week because my doctor wanted to do a weight check on me.  Last week at my regularly scheduled appointment (at 15 weeks) my doctor wasn't too happy that I was still losing weight.  She wanted to check again today... and I am pleased to announce I have gained 1/2 a pound.  (at least I didn't lose anymore!) I am still baffled by the fact that I was loosing weight, yet still really starting to show?!? Hmmm... such a mystery...

Movement: Hopefully soon... our sweet baby was moving and grooving on the ultrasound screen today! 

Food Cravings: No real cravings, but I am pleased to announce I am eating much better.  

Symptoms: I have not taken Zofran in almost 2 weeks!!!! This is a HUGE accomplishment.  I am so thankful I am feeling better!!!  Just in time to wrap up the school year and start thinking about decorating the nursery!
