Too tired to take pictures tonight, but will tomorrow!
How Far along: 16 weeks (April 23-30)
Baby's size:An avacado 4-5 inches long, around 3.5 ounces
Weight loss/gain: 1.5 lbs or so
Sleep: Waking up to go to the bathroom about once a night.
Gender: Don't know yet.
Movement: I felt (or am like 95% sure) that I felt Shim this week. After I thought I did, I laid down on my side to see if it happened again, and it did! I think it was Sunday.
Best Moment of this week: I got to see baby for a couple minutes at my appointment! : ) More on that below.
Looking Forward: Dr appt on Wednesday, April 29th.
Food cravings: Chinese food! We made some of the box stuff from the store, but it wasn't as good as what I wanted.
Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Just a couple nights this week I've felt sick around bedtime. Zach laughs at me because I will tell him, if I just lay here really still and fall asleep, I won't know that I feel sick. Then I feel fine in the morning. I've pretty much resolved that I'm not going to take any more zofran unless I am dying, because taking it makes some things worse than just throwing up. Haha.
Symptoms: I've been overdoing it packing up things/ carrying things and Reid, and I think this has attribute to some round ligament pain. I am especially feeling it today.
Dr. Appt: I had my appointment on Wednesday, first thing in the morning. I was so happy and surprised when my Dr pulled out a hand held ultrasound machine and used that to check on baby. She also told me she was going to try and see if she could sneak a peek in between baby's legs, and I got a little excited because I thought it would be such a good surprise for Zach. She tried, but since Shim is their father's child, they were difficult and would NOT cooperate and move the way we needed him/her to. I did get to see baby's cute little head, beautiful spine, and long looking femur!
Workouts: Not so much! I have a hard time working out inside. I do much better when I can walk up and down the driveway.
What I miss: I miss the sunshine and being able to play outside. I also miss going to stores and shopping! (Darn you, Covid 19 virus.)
Things that stink: Not having a lot of energy
Things that don't stink: Getting to see baby. It was the highlight of my week! Also, I got to have chick fil a for lunch one day and breakfast today! It was so yummy!
Labor signs?: nope
Mama's Thoughts: I'm starting to believe that I'm moving into the "sweetness" of the 2nd trimester. I was so relieved to see baby again this week. I still worry about how Shim is doing in there so seeing him/her moving all around was exactly what I needed!
Daddy's Thoughts: Zach was so excited for me that I got to see baby, but admitted as we were laying in bed that night he was sad he didn't get to! I reminded him that in 4 weeks at our anatomy scan he will though!
