16w1d


How far along: 16w1d

Total weight gain: 8 pounds

Size and growth of the baby: an avocado

From my weekly email: Get ready for a growth spurt. In the next few weeks, your baby will double his/her weight and add inches to his/her length . Right now, the baby is about the size of an avocado: 4 1/2 inches long (head to rump) and 3 1/2 ounces. His/her legs are much more developed, the head is more erect than it has been, and his/her eyes have moved closer to the front of the head. His/her ears are close to their final position, too. 

Sex: still a surprise!

Maternity clothes: just a skirt and top that are oh so comfortable!

Sleep: okay, still getting up early

Best moment(s) of the week: purchasing lots of clothes and toys for our little one


Movement: still waiting

Food cravings/aversions: chocolate, chips

Morning sickness: history

Symptoms: none

Belly button in or out: in

What I miss: taking allergy medication!

What I'm looking forward to: feeling kicks soon
