16 weeks

-I can feel the baby moving more
-As soon has I'm done cutting my fingernails I have to cut them again!
-I shed worse then the dog! But I have a lot more thick long hair
-I still don't want to eat a lot but I have branched back out to trying to eat meat (still no chicken)
-I have crazy mood swings and I feel bad because the hubby gets to experience it daily...
     I love him in the morning, all day long, and even when he gets home from work, but as soon as it's 10pm I can't stand him! I still love him and I tell him that but I also tell him to stay away from me and don't touch me! At least I try to warn him and try to do nice things for him while I don't want to kill him...
-James tries to give his "platypus" to the baby every day
-I get those crazy sharp stabbing pains in my lower stomach every time I sneeze, cough, or move too fast
-I finally look more pregnant instead of looking like I ate a whole pie (I'll get pictures soon)

Maternity clothes? I need to get pants soon... 

Stretch marks? None so far (to add to my collection)

Sleep? I now have carpel tunnel so I have to wear these wrist braces at night and I can't sleep with them on!  

Best moment last week?  We heard the heart beat again! (see bottom for the story...)

Movement?  I'm pretty sure I'm feeling little bumps... It's definitely not gas

Food cravings?  I hate food

Sickness? Hopefully it's finally gone 

Food aversions? Everything!

Belly button in/out? In.

What I miss: Energy and food

What I am looking forward to: Watching my belly grow 

Milestones: The baby can track light 


-(14 weeks 5 days) We had another doctors appointment this week and when it came to hearing the heart beat it gave me kinda a scare...
During my first appointment she couldn't find the heat beat but we did get quick little sounds of it so we new it was there. Because of that though she sent us to get an ultrasound and we saw the baby swimming around.
This time she searched for a long time and could not find it. And as the mother your excitement turns to worry pretty fast. I was literally holding my breath. 
She stopped with the doppler and said lets see where your uterus is and to her surprise it was much higher then she thought and where she was looking.  So she picked up the doppler again and started looking higher. Then there it was! But only for 3 short seconds and baby moved again and she couldn't find it again. But she was happy with what we found and said baby was healthy.
