16 Weeks

How Far along are you: 16 weeks.  My 16 week stats during 1st pregnancy.

Weight Gain:  5 lbs.  Started at 114.6, weighed in today at 119.2

Maternity Clothes: Nope, but had to use a ponytail holder around my pant button today. 

Food Cravings: Sweets, all things carb and oranges

Food Aversion:  Thankfully I no longer have trouble eating anything.  Could be a bad sign! 

How Are You Feeling:  The exhaustion is getting better.  Definitely can tell my energy is coming back.

How Are You Sleeping:  I wake up everytime B comes to bed which is anywhere between 1-2:30 am every night.  It then takes an hour or two to fall back to sleep. Not cool!

Miss Anything:  Nope.

Any Discomforts:  I had slight pain last night.  Had a scary day two Sundays ago where I had bleeding all day long.  Thought I was having a miscarriage.  Thankfully no cramping or heavy like a menstrual cycle.  Called my OB that Sunday morning to see if I needed to ho to the ER.  He told me to come in on that Monday for an ultrasound since I had neither of the above going on.    Thank the good Lord everything was fine.  Strong heartbeat of 161 and the baby was moving all around. The NP said my body is pumping so much more blood tgat a blood vessel probably just popped.  Such a HUGE relief!! 

Any Movement:  I feel little scratches here and there still.  No big movements.

Symptoms:  The occasional heart burn.  My nose bleeds have stopped.

Labor Signs:  No

Gender:  Not yet.  Find out New Year's Eve!!!

Mood:  I've been in a great mood this past week.  I think the Christmas season has put me in better spirits :)

Excited For Anything:  Christmas in a couple of weeks and of course finding out what we are having!!
