16 Weeks Pregnant!

It would seem I've been slacking!  Yep... I've had no motivation to post although I do have a couple of posts in mind.  Tiredness has kind of set in again which is annoying!


Anyway! I am 16 weeks pregnant now!  Just 4 weeks away from being half-way through this pregnancy!  Different symptoms have been coming back.... my boobs are a little bit sore again, I've been sick a few times and pretty much always have indigestion, though it isn't bad yet.  If I sit anywhere for longer than 10 minutes it's nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get up again haha!  If I move too fast I get pains in my sides which apparently is
normal!
Apparently the baby is now the size of a pear/ avocado which is cool!  The baby's most advanced body systems are also working now.  Isn't that crazy given how small it still is?

I'm loving my bump this week.... it doesn't seem to have increased much in size but I think it is rounder.  I've lost some weight so that probably explains it not getting much bigger in the fortnight since I last posted.

How far along? 16 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: -2lbs.
Sleep: Sleeping well!
Food cravings: Cheese scones, juice, watermelon, gravy and mashed potatoes, Indian food!
Best moment this week: Feeling a couple of really good kicks.
Movement: ^^^ As above!
Gender:  I can't wait to find out!  We have our gender scan booked and it is on the 31st of this month!
Stretchies: None yet that I can see....
Belly Button in or out? Almost out!
What I miss: Iced coffee, brie, goats cheese.
What I am looking forward to: Seeing our baby on the scan again!
Symptoms: Sore boobs, backache, sickness and indigestion!
Milestones: Second trimester whoop!!!
Weekly wisdom:  I have none!
Emotions: Excited... but my emotions are going up and down all the time these days!!
