How big is baby?:
"Stay on the lookout for some fluttering sensations in your abdomen. It might not be right at 16 weeks, but pretty soon you’ll start feeling baby moving around in there. At first those moves might feel like gas or a muscle twitch, but over time, as baby gets bigger and stronger, they’ll be unmistakable. Of course, feeling those movements comes with other issues, like having your lungs crowded by your growing babe. That could make it seem tough to catch your breath from time to time. Don’t worry: There are some positive symptoms you might be having at week 16. For example, some moms-to-be find their hair and nails grow faster. (Your hair might actually look thicker and more lustrous and your skin might look radiant, too. Woo hoo!) Another cool fact? Baby’s starting to be able to hear your voice -- and he’ll recognize it at birth -- so feel free to chat him up."
How far along?: 16 weeks
Maternity clothes?: Love 'em! I need to go get some more pants since the weather is cooling down.
Movement: I think I've been feeling flutters every one in awhile, but they're never consistent.
Stretch marks?: None
Sleep?: Is rough this week. I wake up a lot, move around and my hips hurt. I think I need to go pick up a body pillow.
Symptoms?: I find it hard to catch my breath sometimes. I think it's due to my organs shifting around in there. I really think I popped this past week too!
Food cravings: Not much. I'm actually not as hungry as I used to be either.
What I miss: A good night's sleep
What I'm looking forward to: The baby consistently moving. My next couple Dr.'s appointments where I'll be seeing Spock a lot.
Milestone: Feeling him move around more!
