16 Week Update!!!

                                                              ~ *  ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

How far along? 16 weeks 3 days

Total weight gain: Gain of 3 pounds, but still -3 from starting weight. 

Maternity clothes? Same as last week. Although, I REALLY just want to be in my sweat pants and lay in bed all day.

Stretch marks? Nothing new. But my tummy has been very itchy the past couple of days.

Sleep: I'm always tired. All I want to do it sleep. I mean I even daydream about going crawling in to my bed to sleep. Yesterday, I took my lunch break in one of the back offices and just put my head down on the desk and just slept. I honestly am about 1 sleepless night away from bring an air mattress, blanket and pillow to work, stowing it away in one of the unused offices and crashing out.

Best moment this week: Getting to sleep! A couple of nights ago the Mister felt so bad for me. I laid in a position for almost an hour because it hurt to move and I needed his help. The next day, he bought a Boppy Custom Fit Body Pillow for me. (Blog review to follow.) Let's just say, I've been sleeping like a log ever since. :o)

Miss anything? Besides a good night's sleep? (Isn't it too early for this??) I miss not being gassy all the time. I feel like I am a ticking time bomb and I feel sorry for anyone who gets in the elevator after me or my hubby at like 3 in the morning. lol. Hey just being honest! lol

Movement: I THINK so! Twice in the past 24 hours I feel like I was feeling the baby move. Like he/she is swimming around in there and they gently bump in to the front part of my belly. It actually happens whenever the Mister is talking for a long time. Either the baby likes the sound of Daddy's voice or it's trying to get away from being bored to death. lol. jk Honey! 

Food cravings: Fries and Gravy should be a staple in everyone's home. Also this week, I wanted Lil' Caesar's Pizza and a taco... at the same time. I only got the pizza, but I waiting on that taco still.

Anything making you queasy or sick?: Nope.  

Gender: No confirmation yet. The next update should tell you the gender. That is IF Hubby and I decide to start telling ppl. We don't know yet. I'm still holding out hope that it's a girl and Mister is telling to stop being delusional, girls don't have a chance. We'll see who wins this one. lol. I think even if we see that it's a girl he will still believe a boy will be born and same goes for me just opposite. 

Labor signs: Nope. 

Symptoms: Tiredness, headaches and round ligament stretches that are kinda painful.

Belly button in or out? In! (Hopefully it stays that way.)

Wedding rings on or off? On. (I REALLY hope this also stays that way as well.)

Happy or moody most of the time: I haven't burned down the house or my job yet, so I'd say that's a good week.

Looking forward to: To being sure what I am feeling is the baby, start getting items for the baby and also to know the gender. Tuesday cannot come soon enough.
