Baby #2 - Week 16

Come on time, keep chugging along.. I can't believe it's MAY now!

How far along: 16 weeks and change. :)

How big is baby? This week, baby is as big as an avocado.

Sleep: Sleep is good, but I'm having irrational crazy rage dreams again! Last night it was dreaming about ordering a burger from McDonalds (I KNOW) and having a full on argument with a manager because it took too long to get food, and the burger was totally tiny. *sigh*

Symptoms: Cramping again this week, gross discharge, a lot of anxiety to know that everything is continuing as it should be.

Best moment of this week: Hearing baby's heartbeat consistently on the home doppler.

Miss anything: Hot baths.

Movement: Still nothing at all. It's starting to stress me out, but it doesn't matter so long as baby is fine.

Food cravings: I still want a strawberry milkshake.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing much this week, I'm feeling pretty blah food-wise -just that nothing sounds good, you know?

Gender: Girl!!

How's your mood? This week was a bit flat. I got scared for a while, had a lot of panic with some ridiculous amounts of discharge and cramps, and just general worry about the pregnancy. Hubby got diagnosed with whooping cough, so it's been a pretty crazy week health-wise.

Looking forward to: Seeing the baby tomorrow at the OB's office.

The Bump: Not that much different to last week, but I'm just hoping baby is growing well in there. :)

  2. Oh gosh, are you in danger of getting whooping cough too, or have you been vaccinated? Hope little miss is moving away in there, setting up a cozy shop. :)

  3. You look great--glad you're finding that heartbeat consistently for reassurance! Poor Jason with the pertussis... hope there's no risk to you or the baby?
