16 Weeks



Weight Gain: Hard to say, between 2 and 5 pounds I'd guess.

Maternity Clothes: None yet.  This weekend I'll have to go shopping because none of my pants will button!

Stretch Marks: None yet

Sleep: I've been waking at about 3am almost since the beginning.  A lot of the time I go back to sleep. In the last few days I've noticed what I believe are Braxton Hicks, where my stomach gets hard and then relaxes.  Not sure if this is what wakes me up.  Need to drink more water!

Best moment this week: Finally coming out about the pregnancy at work.  Everyone was so excited for us!

Miss anything? Sushi

Movement? I scan for it, as many moms do feel movement at around 16 weeks.  Nothing yet!

Cravings? Red meat, bean burritos, cream cheese

Anything making you queasy or sick? Had a bad time with raw chicken for a few weeks.  Seems to have passed, thank goodness.

Baby's Sex: Boy

Happy or moody? Moody, but that's me all the time.  It does feel as though I'm less tense now that I'm in the second trimester.

Looking forward to: Feeling the baby, and meeting with our OB on Monday.  Turns out she delivered several of the women in our office.  She got glowing reviews, which feels great.  I was not impressed with the other doctor in that practice.
