Week 16 (9/28 to 10/4)

How big is baby?  Avocado!

Weight gain/loss:  Well the doctor's office scale said +13 BUT I had on my jacket (with keys in), an extra layer of clothing from what I had on last time, and I had just had lunch at Qdoba (read inhaled 5 pound burrito).  I weighed myself on 10/3 and it said +8.  Still amazed at how fast this added up.  I'm hoping it's mostly baby and all that comes with it!

Maternity clothes?  So close.  I have a pair of maternity dress pants I started wearing.  Otherwise I'm living in yoga pants! 

Stretch marks? Same as week 5

Sleep?   Doing good!

Best moment this week?  
Spending time with Shaun and seeing the baby!

Worst moment this week?  Having to pee and not being able to!  Whose brilliant idea was it for a pregnant woman to drink LOADS of water and then have her hold it?

Food cravings?  Nothing really....

Gender?  Well the ultrasound tech was super nice and took a peak for us.....she told us what she thought it was but couldn't say for sure.

Belly button in or out? In.

Movement:
  I feel like I'm feeling baby but doctor said it's too early :(

What I miss:  
Working out.  My ginormous weight gain means I really need to get back to it!

What I'm looking forward to:   Decorating the nursery!  We found some awesome decor items at Goodwill!


Weekly wisdom:  I'm fresh out of wisdom for this week.  I feel like I'm in a daze!

Milestones:  
Legs are much more developed; head is erect, eyes have moved closer to front of head, ears are closer to final position; heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day; Baby is starting to listen to voices, thanks to tiny bones forming in ears; starting to grown hair (Grandma D. thinks it's red hair!), lashes, and eyebrows; forming taste buds.

So exciting to see baby grow!
