How far along? I'm 16 weeks, well since i'm slacking so hard with my blog this time around, i'm actually closer to 17 weeks. But SHHHHH, just go with it.
Elsie's 16 week update can be found riiiiiight here! :)
Maternity clothes: I've worn some bits an pieces from my maternity wardrobe. Still surprisingly not all that necessary. I guess in my mind I figured I would just blow up immediately, but that just hasn't been the case. In fact, I sorta like i'm smaller than I was with Elsie. Maybe a more petite baby than my chunky monkey, who knows but I suppose i'm not complaining!
Stretch marks? Nothing to note! Back to my good old Earth mama-angel baby stretch oil. Can't exactly be sure that's what did the trick for me last time, but why change what worked the first time.
Sleep: Still getting decent sleep, which makes everything else that much easier on me!
Best moment this week: Well as many of you know, we found out we're having another little GIRL!!! As much as we kinda "knew" it, it was awesome to get a definite answer! I would have been thrilled to have a boy, but I feel like for the "situation" we're in, it will be a lot easier on us to be able to just slip back into familiar territory. And we have everything she'll need already, so it will be great!
Miss anything?: Nothing really that I can think of?
Movement: I definitely am feeling movement! I asked the ultrasound tech if my placenta was in the front again, like it was with Elsie, and she said no-it's underneath her. So there's nothing cushioning the blows this time around! haha.
Food cravings: Mashed potatoes!
Anything making you queasy or sick? Still get quite nauseous right away in the morning. Sometimes I puke, sometimes I don't. Ready to be completely past this stage, whoever said morning sickness ends after the 1st trimester was LYING!
Gender: Baby GIRL!!!
Labor signs: Nope
Symptoms: Round ligament pain and i'm still getting very frequent headaches. HOWEVER, the fioricet I was prescribed has helped IMMENSELY!! I haven't had a real explosive migraine since i've had that available. I just take one as soon as I get the inkling that something may be brewing and it stops it in its tracks. I've still had headaches, but SO much more manageable.
Belly button in or out? Still in
Wedding rings on or off? still off
Happy or moody most of the time? I've sort of been experiencing some hormonal blips this week. Not unhappy or anything, but just sort of weepy at certain things!
Looking forward to: Spring!! And maybe, just MAYBE getting our house?? We shall seeeeee!!! ;)
