How far along: 16 weeks (February 3, 2013)
What's Up with My Body: Just about
Emotions: I think I'm handling things well? The Husband may say differently, I'm not sure.
Food: I was into lox on cream cheese and bagel for a few days. Now I'm just blah about everything. Even my obsession with cadbury eggs has dwindled. Sadz.

Baby: We heard the heartbeat this week. Best sound ever.
Labor Signs: No thanks!
Stretch Marks: None. Hopefully I don't get any again.
Using: Nada.
Nursery: Too early for me to prepare for that big of a project.
Concerns: I just want a healthy baby.
Maternity Clothes: I haven't worn any yet. Thanks to being a chunkamunk a year or so before I got pregnant and not getting rid of the pants, I can fit in those just fine now. But I have a feeling I'm thisclose to wearing maternity clothes.
Dreams: Weird ones.
Funniest Daddy Moment? None with Baby Almond yet. But The Husband kisses my belly every morning and says I Love You every night.
Classes? None.
Something I want to always remember: Just the feeling of knowing I'm creating life.
Size of baby? Avocado. (4 to 5 in., 3-5 oz)

Weight gain? I've gained 5 lbs. I'm trying to remind myself that the baby needs me to put on what is needed. But it is not easy.
Sleep? It's getting better. But I toss and turn all night.
Best Moment of the Week? Hearing Baby Almond's heartbeat. Having M with me to hear it and hold my hand for it.
Miss anything? My skinny clothes. Which is pure vanity, but I know with some work I'll get there again.
Movement? I haven't felt anything yet. Sometimes I think I feel a fluttering but nothing consistent.
Food Cravings? Nothing.
Gender? Unknown.
Symptoms? I'm trying to control the migraines but otherwise, feeling well.
Belly button in or out? In.
Looking forward to: Enjoying the pregnancy now that I'm in the second trimester.
Next baby check-up?: early March
