16 Weeks



Watch what you say... tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean the little one can now pick up your voice. Eyebrows, lashes and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming. And, if you're interested, an ultrasound might be able to determine gender.

How far along? 16 weeks and a day

Total weight gain: down 12 pounds

Cravings: Yellow & Orange peppers with onion dip

Maternity clothes? not wearing them except that sweater, but I have a feeling I will be breaking out some tops soon.

Sleep: with a pillow between my legs

Best moment this week: hearing the heart beat and making out 18 week u/s for March 1st

Movement: No, but I hope to feel some soon!!

Gender: Team Green

Labor Signs: None.

Belly Button in or out? In.

What I miss: Alcohol still

What I am looking forward to: Feeling this little one

Weekly Wisdom: McDonald Sundae's can sit in the freezer until you would like them.

15 Weeks!




Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements.

How far along? 15 weeks 2 days

Total Weight Gain: Down 12 pounds since finding out

Maternity clothes? The only thing I use is a tie up sweater, and that is because dress code rules changed right when I told everyone, so instead of buying something in 2 months I couldn't use, I bought a maternity one.

Stretch marks? None from this

Sleep: I miss my back sleeping.

Best moment this week: Likely will be today hearing the heartbeat again.

Movement: No

Food cravings: Chocolate chip cookies freshly baked

Gender: Team freen

Labor Signs: No

Belly Button in or out? in

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach, my back, alcohol, liking foods

What I am looking forward to: Feeling movement

Weekly Wisdom: You gotta take things with a grain of salt.

Milestones: Nothing really this week.
