16 weeks

Well, another week has come and gone.. And the belly has definitely gotten bigger! Before we know it, I’ll be halfway through this pregnancy! Everyone says that being pregnant seems to take forever, but honestly, this is going by really fast. So it makes me wonder when the ball will drop and it will start CRAWLING by. (probably in the summertime when it’s too hot and unbearable). But right now, I’m just enjoying my pregnancy day to day because it really is rather enjoyable!

How far along: 16 weeks

Next appointment: June 1st.. I’ll be able to set up our ultrasound appointment!

Any new aches/pains: I have occasional abdominal pains but nothing too rough

Maternity clothes: none yet.. still able to fit in my regular clothes just fine..

Sleep: still doing ok.. I get up 1-2 times in the middle of the night but I sleep pretty well..

Best moment this week: being another week closer to November!

Movement: nothing yet.. I’m hoping that I start feeling something in the next few weeks!

Food cravings: last night I craved cereal.. I’m still craving drinks more than foods.. even though cheeseburgers always sound good!

Belly button: still there

What I miss: the number that the scale said 16 weeks ago ;-)

What I’m looking forward to this week: seeing all the progress that they make in our house! they’re installing flooring and countertops and lots of fun stuff!

Weekly wisdom: dancing to the song ‘Shout’ is extremely exhausting while pregnant!

On to the pictures.. I used to go to bed with a larger belly and wake up with a smaller belly. It also used to feel squishy. Now I’m going to bed with a big belly, waking up with a fairly big belly and it’s pretty firm at this point. It’s starting to look more like a baby bump when I wear tighter shirts which is very exciting! I’m tired of looking pudgy!

24 more weeks to go!
