16 Weeks


How Far Along: 16 weeks!

Size of baby: The babies are each the size of an avocado, are about 4 ½ inches, and weigh 3 ½ ounces.

Maternity Clothes: My shirts are starting to get tight, but so far I can still squeeze into most of them.

Sleep: I continue to get up about twice a night to pee, and back pain keeps me from getting comfortable. But once I’m asleep I’m good and will stay asleep until my next bathroom break.

Best Moment of the Week: This isn’t my ‘best’ moment of the week, but it’s the funniest.  I was lying in bed eating pizza and needed to put my plate down to move. Well, I didn’t want the sheets to get dirty, so I stuck it on the first thing I saw: my belly.  I realized it made the perfect little table and now I often use my growing belly for my nightly snack. 

Movement: I still don’t feel kicks but I continue to feel….something….every once in a while. 

Symptoms: My growing belly! This definitely makes me feel more pregnant than any of my symptoms.

Food cravings: None.

What I Miss: Going for walks with my Grammy. When I work all day it’s important that I rest when I get home and put my feet up. Plus, I don’t think I could keep up with her anymore!  

What I'm Looking Forward To: Going to the doctor on Monday. It’s been a long time and I’m anxious about it.

Milestones: Making it to 4 months.

Emotions:  Nervous, anxious, excited, scared, overwhelmed, and worried
Sorry this is so late and  I don't have a picture. Michael and I spend all of our free time on "Operation: Make Room for Triplets" so I haven't had much time to go on the computer. Also, I think pregnancy hormones are starting to hit because I have definitely been moodier than usual!
