I was 16 weeks on Saturday!
I'm feeling ok right now. I tend to have a lot of round ligament pain but I assume that's from all the exercising and packing I'm doing.
No cravings!
I believe fully in my heart that this baby is another boy (YAY!!)
At 8 wks, the heart beat was in the 170s. At 12 wks, it was in the 140s and on Monday, it was in the 150s.
James went with me to this past appointment. He HATES doctors so he did his fair share of screaming and clinging which can be rough when they're trying to do things like take your blood pressure and listen for the baby's heart beat. He did settle down enough to get to hear the heart beat though and now several times a day, he'll put his finger up to his ear and say, "Baby? " and make the heart beat sound.
Be still my heart. :)
This was me at 16 weeks with James!
