16 Weeks!

{February 27, 2013} I am 16 weeks pregnant!


Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 16 Weeks

Size of baby: Baby D is the size of an avocado

Maternity Clothes: Definitely wearing maternity dress pants every day. I could probably get away with my regular pants and a belly band, but the maternity ones are just so much more comfortable. For tops, I'm definitely in an awkward in-between stage. Most of my regular tops are too small-ish and make me look like I ate too much. Maternity tops are too big. It's awkward. Ha!

Gender: Can't wait to find out! The appointment is scheduled for March 13! Two weeks from today :) I put a poll over in the sidebar so make your guesses now!!

Movement: I don't know. I feel little "bubbles" and here and there, but I can't tell if it's gas or a baby. ;)

Sleep: I'm sleeping great. I'm asleep before my head hits the pillow and I still don't have to get up to go to the bathroom. I feel like by this point, a lot of people are getting up two or three times a night. I'm grateful to be able to stay in bed all night right now!

What I miss: Nothing!

Cravings: Ice cold water, fruit, cereal, and chocolate.

Symptoms: Even though I have more energy, I'm still more tired than I was before I got pregnant. Other than that, I had some stretching feelings this week, and my dreams are still CRAY CRAY. The crazy dreams have probably been one of my biggest symptoms. For example, last night involved a trip to the beach with my dad and sister, a tidal wave, and being robbed. 

Favorite Moment This Week: Getting to hear baby's heartbeat last Thursday and getting closer to knowing if Baby D is a he or a she!

You look adorable! Be grateful for not having to pee at night. That's always my first pregnancy symptom. It's rather annoying at first, but I get used to it after a while. I can't wait to find out what you're having!!!

It's so funny, we're having lots of the same things happen. I am having crazy dreams and craving fruit and cereal too. I have had to pee most nights though!
