Week 16 done!

Baby's now the size of an avocado!
Watch what you say...tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean she can now pick up your voice. A few more minuscule changes: Eyebrows, lashes, and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming.


How far along? 16 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: At the doctor's appointment I was up 6 lbs total for the pregnancy, but according to my scale at home, I went down three lbs from that night to the next morning, so it still fluctuates throughout the day by quite a bit.
Maternity clothes? I have some, but haven't worn them yet. Wearing the belly bands daily though!
Sleep: Hasn't been so great. I wake up because I need to sneeze or can't breathe through my nose, and then can't get back to sleep. Very tired this week.
Best moment this week: Convincing Mr. Beaver to set up our registry at target so we can start adding stuff online!
Movement: I could've sworn I felt the baby the other day for a second, but I don't believe it until it happens again. For now I've convinced myself it was in my head because the doctor had just explained what to pay attention for at my appointment this week.
Food cravings: still nothing
Gender: Team green! After Nov. 9, there is no turning back... only a couple more weeks to stay strong!
Labor signs: no thank you!
Belly Button in or out? Sticking out more and more every week. So gross.
What I miss: Not being able to try Mr. Beaver's margarita last night- it looked sooo good!!
What I am looking forward to: Telling work- I am planning to do it on Wednesday!!! and of course feeling the baby move!!!
Weekly wisdom: Register at target even if you don't want stuff from there- you get a $20 shutterfly discount code!
Milestones: Scheduled the big ultrasound!
