16th Week Journal...

How far along? 16wks today
Total weight gain/loss: approximately 6 - 6/12 lbs
TP Test: 8 1/2 squares of toilet paper
Maternity Clothes: Finally
"Morning" Sickness: I still have a strong gag reflex and although I felt sick last night after dinner, I did not get sick. So the past week, I've done well and not gotten physically sick.
Stretch Marks: I think I found a new one on my belly.
Sleep: I think I slept thru the whole night last night, so that gives me a happy! yay!
Best/Worst moment this week: Don't know if I have either one because it was a fairly tame week in regards to the pregnancy... I felt normal and I'm not sure if I felt a flutter.
However, going to the Mega Maze and apple picking with Gary, Sharon & the kids was a definite highlight of the week!
Concerns/Fears: My biggest concern comes when I have "normal" days. I'm not use to having normal days where I feel normal and not pregnant. But Friday & Saturday, I felt normal. So it made me a bit weery. However, I've spoken with a few pregnant women who say that's completely natural and that I should enjoy it while I can. We'll see...
Movement: I'm not sure if I felt my first flutter last night while driving home or if it was food digesting. But it did feel different and it wasn't a bad feeling at all. It would be cool if that was an actual movement.
Food cravings: I don't know if I necessarily have specific cravings - however I still love anything from the potato
Gender prediction: I'm not sure
Labor Signs: N/A
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On - a bit loose even
Weekly Wisdom: Don't know if I have some to share because I'm trying to come to grips with relaxing during the "normal" days...
Milestones: Dan & I really have become ying & yang with each other. Whenever I have a panic moment, he's been there to rationalize with me and tell me that everything is fine. And when we discuss baby shower or clothes or baby items, Dan has a panic moment that it's too soon for things like that because anything could go wrong - I explain that it's better to go thru the pregnancy with happy thoughts that everything will be fine rather than being doom & gloom and waiting for something bad to happen. It's been a perfect balance so far...
