Trying to Bring a Dream to Life: 16 Weeks

16 Weeks

How far along? 16 weeks.

Baby is the size of an: avocado.....hmmm now I want some guacamole! LOL

Total weight gain/loss: I put on 5lbs but am still down from starting weight- currently down 1lb total (143lb).

Maternity clothes? Not in the near future.

Sleep:Dragging some in the morning but more so because london has decided to wake up 1 hr earlier.

Best moment this week: When I slept in on Sunday and didn't have to get up to pee.

Movement: Occasional pops here and there, but very little activity this week.

Weekly Wisdom: One of the most important thinks I learned about being a mom...do what feels right for your family, not others.

Food cravings/aversions: Aversion-nothing. Cravings-McDonalds---that may explain the 5lbs!

Belly Button in or out? In. (yeah this one is going bye-bye next week, I will report if it ever does pop).

What I miss: Hips that didn't pop while hiking.

What I am looking forward to: Hearing baby's heartbeat on doppler.

Milestones: Did I mention I didn't have to wake up to pee...thats huge! LOL

Symptoms: Breastmilk is gone, boobs are getting bigger though. Dizzy when standing up to fast.

Mini life lesson/advice I want this baby to learn some day: Popcorn on the stove is worth the couple extra minutes to make over the microwave stuff or even the popper (which is a total waste of space!)

Pictures to come!
