How Far Along: 16 weeks, 3 days

How Big is the Baby: The size of an avacado? About six inches long

New/Changed Symptoms: More energy. Noticing a difference in how I walk now that I'm showing - trying not to waddle!

Emotions: Not bad, a little over sensitive. Hubby is gone for three weeks (I'm a week in) so very lonseome for him.

Something Funny That Happened: My husband's ex mother-in-law ran into me and commented how "huge" I am and am I sure I'm not having twins. A thinly veiled insult, as I'm not showing that much.


Best moment of the Week: I've been told many times that I'm beautiful and glowing - this week I feel really good about myself!

Movement: None yet.

Maternity Clothes: Bought a skirt and dress from Thyme on clearance. Also got a pair of old navy capri's from thrift store.

Weight: Gained three pounds in one day! So I'm a pound above where I started pre-preg.

Food cravings: Nothing major - having a hard time deciding what I want to eat - nothing really jumps out at me.

Food aversions: None.

What I Miss: My husband! (not pregnancy related, but still!)

What I'm Looking Forward To: Feeling the baby.

Milestone: Hit the "four month" mark.

Question(s): When should I start using oils for stretch marks?
