How far along: 16 weeks 3 days
Total weight gain: 5 pounds
Maternity clothes: still just the Bella band and the one pair of maternity jeans – all my other clothes are still fitting!
Sleep: so-so. I made Chris switch sides of the bed with me since I always ended up kneeing him in the back trying to sleep on my left side. I think I need to get used to my new “side”.
Best moment this week: This was a good week, I don’t just have one. First, finishing my living room floors. I decided to pull up my carpet and put down a paper floor. It’s the first project I’ve really done on my own and am really proud of the result. It was a great feeling to put down the last piece of quarter round down with my husband and move the living room furniture back in. Just in time for my parents to arrive for the weekend to go see Wicked! Also, Chris and I celebrated Valentine’s Day. We normally don’t do anything, but I had a gift card to Brio so we went to dinner on Sunday and I didn’t realize he had already made plans to cook us steaks on Monday night (he had to work on Tuesday) so we celebrated again with a steak dinner, complete with red roses, chocolate covered strawberries and sparkling white grape juice. Two Valentine’s Day dinners? Yes, please!
Food cravings: Still really loving pickles and vegetables.
Food aversions: nope, doing great here. Ha! It may be better if I did want to avoid certain foods – I generally just want to eat.
Symptoms: Definitely more hungry, and thirsty, too.
Looking forward to: My next ultrasound!! We get to find out what this little one will be!
