How far along? 16 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: Still pretty steady, a few pounds under pre-pregnancy weight.
Maternity clothes? I wore my first maternity top this week! And I broke out my maternity jeans the other day but they were wayyyyy too big.
Stretch marks? Nope.
Best moment this week: Feeling the baby move!
Symptoms: Some nausea, RLP, and itchy armpits, although I don't know if that's a pregnancy symptom or just a coincidence.
Movement: I had some great workouts at the Y, and baby has been doing aerobics, too.
Food cravings: Tim and I came home from the gym on Tuesday night, and I really, really, really wanted cake. With frosting. I was dreaming of yellow cake with white buttercream frosting. A certain husband of mine didn't pick up on my intense cravingdespite numerous mentions of "I want cake" so I grumpily made my own cake. And I decided I wanted strawberry. I had *just* enough powderered sugar to make a small batch of buttercream frosting, too. I took the leftover cake in to work, so they appreciated my craving, too. (I don't need to be eating for 18, here, people.) I was also feeling ill on my way home from work the other night. I had read a fellow pregnant lady's mention of Happy Meals the night before, and suddenly, I wanted a McDonald's hamburger and a McFlurry. The hamburger made me feel better and the McFlurry was just a nice treat. It seems to have started an ice cream craving, though.
Aversions: I'm doing better with everything. I've been trying to force myself to drink more water. The worst thing is smells.
Gender? I still think it's a girl. We'll find out in TWO weeks!
Sleep: I've actually been getting by with one or no potty breaks, so I've been sleeping a LOT. I toss and turn a lot and wake up with cramps in my legs, but nothing too bad.
What I miss: My pants fitting properly.
What I am looking forward to: Continuing to overwhelm myself with baby research.
Weekly Wisdom: Treasure every day.
Milestones: Feeling the baby move!

I want a belly photo every week. I'm very demanding.
ReplyDeleteAlso, yay!!! I look forward to your updates every week.
Haha, you'll get one! I usually am most presentable on Wednesdays, so that's when I take most of the weekly photos. But I post on Tuesdays. I might need to sync that up at some point ...
