Your Baby: Week 16
Watch what you say... tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean the little one can now pick up your voice. Eyebrows, lashes and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming. And, if you're interested, an ultrasound might be able to determine gender.
I had my 16 week appt. last Thursday May 12th, this was the first appt. that Grand could make it too, so it was awesome to see his face when the dr. put the doppler on my belly and said that's you little one's heartbeat. I also went for my quad screening blood work. I am so nervous about the results. I made my appt for 20 weeks on June 9th and for my anatomy scan on June 13th!
About Me:
How far along? 16w3d
Total weight gain/loss: -1 lb ( I totally misjudged my weight gain the last few weeks!)
Maternity clothes? Had to go up one more button on my button extender this week, I may have to give in and get maternity jeans soon, even though I haven't gained any weight, confusing!
Stretch marks? 1,2,3,4 Please no more!
Sleep: having a hard time sleeping at night, I sleep more during the day than I should.
Best moment this week: Finding out that Lil' pumpkin can hear my voice! Now when I talk to my belly I won't feel as silly!
Movement: still having the tickles,no definite kicks yet.
Food cravings: Watermelon, Lemonade, Pickles
Gender: 4 weeks to go to see if we are team pink or team blue!!!!!
Belly Button in or out? in
What I miss: although I am happy to be pregnant, I have discovered that I'm becoming somewhat lactose intolerant. Too much milk or ice cream will have me in the bathroom in no time. So I miss not getting sick after drinking milk!
What I am looking forward to: 20 week Anatomy scan on June 13th!
Milestone: Making it to 16 weeks!
Symptoms-
sore and growing BB's ( I feel like Dolly Parton)
mood swings (unfortunately these are still going strong! Poor man!)
Constipation (TMI I know, but I can't go!)
