16 Weeks

How far along:  16 weeks down, 24 weeks to go

This week baby is the size of: an avocado (mmmm maybe I should celebrate with some guacamole) 

Next appointment: October 12- it is almost October, then my opointment will be this month!

Exercise: I got some prenatal yoga and Pilates videos from the library I'm going to try and use

Stretch marks: None

Swelling: no swelling that I can tell

Maternity clothes:  I'm still wearing yoga pants,  maternity jeans, maternity tanks with my regular shirts

Belly button: No changes yet

Sleep: I have started using a lot more pillows. Some nights I sleep fine, other nights it takes forever to fall asleep, just to wake up to go to the bathroom. 

Food cravings/aversions: pretty much the same as last week. Matt had mouth surgery- so this past week we've ate a lot of soft food and soup. 

Symptoms: I've had some sharp pains in my boobs, va-ja-ja, and possible round ligament pains. I guess this baby is growing!  It is supposed to double in size in the next few weeks :)

Movement: Nothing definite yet

Labor signs: No, thank goodness!

What I miss: Having motivation. 

What I'm loving: Thinking about baby nurseries, baby clothes and baby showers

What I'm looking forward to: still looking forward to my next doctors appointment so we can make sure everything is still going smooth 

Best moment this week: we bought a cradle at a consignment sale for 23 dollars.  It came with a brand new mattress. I want to paint it a bright color, but Matt says it would be really hard to sand all the spindles. 

Milestones: I've been working on cleaning out the guest room which will be turned into the baby's nursery. 

Goals: finish cleaning out the guest room and have a yard sale.
