16 Weeks - Avocado

Weekly Pregnancy Journal



How far along: 16 w, 0 d

Total weight gain/loss: + 9.4

Maternity clothes: Absolutely. And on Friday I went shopping again and bought 2 mat bathing suits for our bahamas trip, and some shirts from Old Navy.

Stretch marks: Not yet - and I bought some stretch mark cream now.

Sleep: Is great

Best moment this week: Um... It was a pretty good week, but nothing really major in terms of pregnancy moments. I guess it would be when someone I don't really know at work asked if I'm expecting - I guess that means that I'm looking more pregnant than fat these days :)

Movement: Still can't feel anything

Cravings: Nothing really.

Aversions: None

Gender: No idea.

Labour Signs: None

Belly Button in or out: In, but it's definitely starting to change shape.

What I miss: Alcohol. We were at my sister-in-law's for most of the weekend while our condo was being perused by strangers, and I was acutely reminded of how much I would like a Corona to go along with the BBQ'd goodness. Brutal. Also, we went to the liquor store on Saturday to get some wine to put in our wine rack (also for the open house) and it was painful.

What I'm looking forward To: Bahamas! And an ultrasound in 2 weeks!

Weekly Wisdom: I need to quit worrying about my weight and just focus on eating well.

Symptoms this week: A bit of light brownish spotting this weekend, but I think I just overdid it trying to get ready for the open house on Saturday. It's gone now, and otherwise, I feel great.



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.
