16 Week Bumpdate

 

This post is a little late... I am currently 16w5d

 

 



How Far Along: 16 Weeks

 

Don't mind the messy bathroom pictures. Since this picture I feel like my belly has definitely popped! it feels double this now!

Size of baby: According to the bump.com the baby is about the size of an avocado

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 4-5 pounds as of my home scale, but I go to the doctor next Monday so we will see!

Maternity Clothes: Not yet. I tried on all the clothes from my sister and some fit perfect, so its only a matter of time! I need to order a few more shirts for our Green Bay Trip!

Gender: Still don't know... We will be finding out the week before Thanksgiving!

 

Movement: Not Yet.

 

What I miss: Sleeping really comfortably.

 

Sleep: decent, but I feel like I wake up a lot at night.

Symptoms: none really. A few aches and pains.
  

Cravings: any and all things fruity (actual fruit, smoothies, candy, fruit snacks), and pizza!

 

Best Moment this week: Seeing my belly looking more like a baby belly and less like I ate too much!

What I am looking forward to: My next appointment on Monday!

 

16 Week Baby:

She's listening to your voice, thanks to tiny bones forming in her ears.

She's growing hair, lashes and eyebrows

She's forming taste buds

Note: the Bump switched off between using She and He... no we don't know the sex!

 

1 year Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary to my wonderfully amazing, handsome husband!

 

 

 

We have officially been married for 1 year!

This December we will be celebrating 8 years together!

 

I can't believe we have spent almost a third of our lives together...

Through our ups and down I couldn't imagine my life with anyone else!

 

I love you Travis Jay!

15 Week Bumpdate

Pregnancy Highlights

 



How Far Along: 15 Weeks

No picture yet! I feel like I have a small bump...

but pretty sure it looks like I just gained 5 pounds to everyone else!

Size of baby: According to the bump.com the baby is about the size of a navel orange

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 3-4 pounds 

Maternity Clothes: Not yet, but I have been looking through all of the clothes my sister gave me! Its nice to have some clothes all ready and not have to start buying the second mine don't fit.

Gender: Still don't know... a few more weeks to wait.

Movement: Not Yet.

What I miss: nothing really yet. Well maybe drinking as much coffee as I want or having a glass or two of wine!
 

Sleep: decent. I have been having crazy dreams lately and not feeling like I am really sleeping deeply, but I have no problems falling asleep. Also when I wake up I feel like I have been arching my back all night.

Symptoms: a little dizzy here and there.
 

Cravings: any and all things fruity (actual fruit, smoothies, candy, fruit snacks), and pizza!

Best Moment this week: Finally signing up to start taking the CPA exams again and getting caught up at work so I can study and start some baby projects during nights and weekends!

What I am looking forward to: Another appointment in the next few weeks and babies first (and probably only) trip to Green Bay to watch the Packers!

Baby Questions...

Baby Update!

 

 

Baby's first picture 9 weeks 1 day

 

Baby's second picture - at 11w5d

Sorry for the awesome iPhone quality pictures...

We told immediate family in early September at 8 weeks, and then told extended family and friends towards the end of September at 11 weeks.

 

Baby Fuller is on his/her way!  With a due date of April 3rd. 

 The things people are always curious about....

Were we trying/was this planned? 

Yes, we began trying in early 2013!  
 

Will we find out the gender?

Currently our decision is yes! I would love to be surprised, but I am already itching to start painting the baby's room and I cannot make myself pick out neutral designs. 

There are too many cute gender specific ideas out there.

We still have about 7 weeks to wait!

 

Do we have names picked out?

Not yet. We have a few ideas that we both think are "ok", but have yet to find any names (boy or girl) that we both love! We bring up names to each other a lot, but figure its not worth the argument until we know for sure if its a boy or girl. (another reason we want to find out the gender!)

How have I been feeling?

Now, pretty good! I was very nauseous every night up through about 12 weeks, but only got sick once thankfully! I was extremely tired and once I ate any type of food, the thought of eating it again would turn my stomach. Since 12 weeks my energy is almost completely back and I haven't had any food aversions!

 

I will start weekly "bumpdates" later this week!
