16 weeks

So, I have waited awhile to actually start posting to this blog about my pregnancy. WOW! That just sounded weird "my pregnancy". I mean this is something that I waited for, for a really long time. When I was younger I always pictured myself with child/children before I was 25. Now that I look back, I do not think know what I was thinking. 27 is a good age I feel; however this might put a stop to how many kids I have. I can't see myself having kids into my mid-late 30s. Anyway, onto the subject of this entire blog "my pregnancy".

I have been very fortunate in that I have not experienced sickness unless I was riding in the car. Not once have I "revisited" a meal I consumed. Fatigue did hit me in my early weeks, but it has pasted. I frequent the restroom more often. I dislike fried chicken to a degree. I love strawberries and any type of fruit. Salt and vinegar chips have come back into my life. Hard candies are nice to have around. Breakfast is a must, and I am normally snaking on something during 1,2,3 blocks at school.

How far along? 16w1d
Total weight gain/loss: 2 pounds
Maternity clothes? No. I did use a hair tie on a pair of dress pants for school. I have purchased a few causal medium shirts.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Great lately, I have only been waking up once a night
Best moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat again
Movement: I think little flutters are happening.
Food cravings: I don't really have any. I have to decide what I want right before I eat.
Gender: I have no clue, hint, feeling.
Labor Signs: None, thank goodness
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: ?? I don't know.
What I am looking forward to: Gender reveal


Brett and I have been discussing names. I tell you Brett has some weird taste in names. This may end up being tough for us. We are not telling anyone our choices, so that it is a surprise. Currently, we have a running list of names covering out bathroom mirror. I thought this would be a good idea to see the names daily.

We have redecorated the guest room and are making room for the baby.


Here are two current pictures of me.
