Pregnancy Update - Week 16

Why am I always a day behind on posting this?


How far along - 16 weeks

Maternity clothes - I wear maternity jeans or yoga pants / sweats...all my shirts are non-maternity.  I have a very limited 'pregnant in the winter' wardrobe since I had Little M in November, so I was happy to receive some gift cards for Christmas and bought 11 new shirts yesterday that actually fit.  Happy to not have to wear sweatshirts all the time now!

Weight gain - 15 lbs

Stretch marks - none 

Belly Button - still in but getting a little more shallow

Sleep - Good recently, you know other than getting up 3 and 4 times a night to use the bathroom

Best moment this week - Getting more clothes that fit...I'm tired of looking so frumpy

Movement - Every day now!  Not really strong kicks yet, but definitely bumps.  Can't feel it from the outside yet though

Food I'm loving - I have to eat constantly to help keep the nausea away {hence the 15 lbs weight gain} I mainly want to eat pizza, bagels, and candy

Food I'm hating - Anything healthy, whoops...although I have been able to eat more salads and yogurt recently

Symptoms - NAUSEA!!! face breaking out, exhaustion, and headaches, though I think the Zofran is causing those.  I'm really so done with feeling like I have the stomach flu all day long.  It has to end eventually right?

Gender - We're going to be surprised!  My face looks different, so I think girl, but I had a dream the other night and in it we had a boy.  So I have no idea

What I'm looking forward to - not being sick

What I miss - not being sick

Weekly wisdom - Even if you're feeling sick and huge, making the effort to put on real clothes and makeup really makes a difference

Milestones - Feeling movement!

Emotions - Trying to keep them a little more stable.  Not sure if it's working

    I am still nauseous, too. We had an u/s last Friday and our little one was kicking/punching up a storm. Now, my DH says she is practicing tae bo. lol. I cannot feel her movement yet, but it sure is there. Feel better soon.

    I am so sorry that you have been so sick!! I hated that nauseated feeling, if the pizza and bagels help keep it away, I would keep on eating it!! Hoping soon it will go away!!

Spring Giveaway!

Image
First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
