Today I am 16 weeks and 3 days pregnant with my second child. Above is my belly, this week I feel more fat than pregnant. Probably has something to do with all the pizza and cake I have been eating! Here is what has been going on this week.
How many weeks? 16
What's going on with baby?: Its about 12cm by now, the size of an avocado. In the next couple of weeks the baby's weight doubles (I hope mine doesn't!). It has grown finger and toe nails.
Appointments: 16 week appointment this coming week.
Symptoms: I've had a few dizzy spells this week again. I've got my 16 week appointment with my midwife tomorrow so I'm going to ask about it. I have also been getting a numbness in my toe which isn't bad but a little bit annoying.
Weight: 131.8lbs
Gain/Loss this week: +1.8 lbs
Total gain: 9.8 lbs
Belly: 36 inches
Sleep: I've been waking up around 5am needing the toilet but I've been holding it in as i don't want to wake my son up as he can stir about this time. This means i effectively don't get back to sleep but at least i am resting. Roo has been getting up about 6am this past week.
Movement: More flutterings and definite movement feelings. Baby is doing a little dance at the moment whilst i am writing this! It so reassuring.
Cravings: Nothing specific.
Purchases: None this week. See i told you i don't buy things every week :-)
What I'm wearing: New Look reversible jeans i bought last week and a grey t-shirt from Tesco.
Male or Female?: We don't know the baby's gender yet.
Looking forward to: My 16 week appointment with my midwife.
Here is my 16 week pregnancy vlog
See you at 17 weeks
