16 week bumpdate!

16 weeks 3 days!

A friend's sister did weekly "Bumpdates" on her blog while she was pregnant and it was fun to follow and will make for fun memories, so I thought I would do the same! I was going to post belly pictures too...but I have decided that right now, I don't look pregnant...I just look plump. So once the baby belly really pops, then I'll post the belly pictures too :)

Size of baby: An avocado! Baby weighs about 3.5oz and is about 4.6in

Symptoms: Still feeling nauseous. It comes and goes a lot more now, so it isn't always 24/7. Threw up once last week, but that has really calmed down now too. Hopefully it continues :) Still pretty tired. When the nausea is mild, I can really get a lot done but then at the end of the day, I just want to crawl into bed. Daddy keeps me up with him at night, though, so that means I sleep later in the morning. Also having some round ligament pain. Its mainly when doing ab stuff at the gym or when I cough or move a certain way. The doctor said its normal. Just stretching to make room for baby :) 

Cravings: Pears?? I don't know that I have had any real cravings yet, but I have been really enjoying pears lately and have at least 1 or 2 a day! 

Something you miss: Feeling 100% normal every day. Being able to eat as much seafood as I want, anytime I want it. Wine. Sometimes it would be nice to just have a glass, but then I realize how much I enjoy the non-alcoholic drinks too. I also miss sleeping through the night. I wake up constantly all night long, usually. I just can't get comfortable sometimes because I'm not feeling good, am hungry, or just really have to go potty! Midnight bathroom trips have become a regular thing. But I guess sleeping through the night won't be happening for a LONG time yet :) Unless we have a good sleeper like their daddy! ha ha 

Milestones: We got our stroller and car seat this week! Daddy put it together and we love it! It pushes so smoothly and the car seat is top rated for safety. Should be a good color for a boy or a girl, too :) Can't wait to push a baby in this this spring!! :)

I'm not sure, but I may also have been feeling some tiny baby kicks/movements this week! I felt the strangest bubble popping sensation in my tummy the other night. They say that can be felt by as early ast 16 weeks in first time moms or second time moms can usually feel it as early as 12 weeks! So it could have been baby :) When I pushed around on my tummy more popping happened. I haven't felt it much since then, though. So not sure. Still have a healthy, strong heartbeat though! 

Looking Forward to: Our 20 week ultrasound and being able to find out if we are having a boy or girl! Hopefully Baby Foote cooperates! Also looking forward to nausea being 100% gone, my family coming for the Christmas Concert at church next weekend, and going to New York City with my hubby for a "Baby Moon" and spending Christmas with Hubby's fam in New York! So much happening with Christmas around the corner! And so fun that baby gets to do it all with us :)
