16 weeks

Back when I was...
How Far Along: 16 weeks (end of October)

Size of Baby: According to my babycenter.com, roughly 4.5 inches long and 3.5 ounces

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Maybe 3 pounds...at the most

Maternity Clothes: Some of my jeans are getting tight but I can still wear everything 

Gender: Still don't know. Since the heartbeat was fast, people are guessing a girl. We'll see though! 

Movement: Hard to say. Nothing definite though
.
Sleep: I'm sleeping so much better now. I don't get up as much and I don't ALWAYS need a nap during the day either. It's awesome.

What I miss: Still nothing

Cravings: I "crave" everything I smell/hear people talk about/see other people eat. I'm just super hungry all the time!

Aversions: I think I'm done with this phase of pregnancy. Woohoo!

Symptoms:  Does feeling big count as a symptom? I don't look much different, but I swear things are starting to get squished and it can be hard to breathe sometimes. Still getting headaches, although not as often or as bad. Things are really quite nice right now.  

Best Moment: We got to hear the baby's heartbeat on Thursday! It was so cool to have real proof that there's actually a little baby in there. I feel so lucky that I get to be this little baby's mom. Terrified, but lucky.
