Hello! Nothing too exciting to talk about this week...hopefully by next week we'll have some big news ;) I have been feeling much better this week so fingers are crossed that this continues!
How Far Along: 16 weeks 3 days
Baby is the size of: an avocado
Symptoms: Hungry!! I feel like I have to constantly be eating something now, but never a lot at one time...makes it a bit difficult but I have started stocking up on snacks to bring to work with me so that is helping. The only times I have felt truly nauseous lately is when I go too long without eating. Other than that, I have been feeling a lot better! I have the occasional headache and a somewhat constant backache, but they have not been too bad so far. As long as I'm not nauseous anymore, I am happy! :)
Movement: In the last two days, I think I have felt a little movement! I still can't 100% say that it is the baby, but I definitely think it was. I'll only feel it when I am lying on my back really still - it feels like a little popcorn popping. SO cool!
Have you told anyone? Everyone knows!
Miss Anything? well-fitting pants!
Food Cravings: My only real 'craving' still is just milk - I seriously cannot get enough! But my appetite has definitely started making it's return, yay!! I'm so happy that I actually want to eat again!
Anything making you sick/queasy? There are things that don't sound good - but nothing that's really made me feel sick. I have not been loving the idea of mexican food lately...which is very weird for me!
Have you started to show yet? Yes! I have had people this past week actually comment on it! And I have been noticing random people looking down at my belly when I'm out in public. Kevin keeps looking at me and saying, "you are definitely pregnant!" It's exciting to finally have an outward change to show the world!
Gender prediction: I think it's a girl. Kevin
Mood: I've been feeling pretty good this week!
Best Moment this week: We didn't do anything really baby related this week, but I think the best part of my week was just all the comments I got about how I am showing now! It is just making me so excited and making it all feel so much more real now that I can look down and see this big belly! I am also excited to start feeling more movement in the coming weeks :)
Looking forward to: We finally have our 17 week doctor's appointment this Thursday! Our OB usually lets us get an ultrasound when we visit so I am really looking forward to seeing how the baby has grown this month and possiblyyyy seeing a gender? I am not counting on it, but I have hope! I can't wait to know if we have a little girl or boy in there!
