Today I am 16 weeks pregnant! Baby Shack is the size of a large avocado now. In three weeks we will have our anatomy scan and find out if we are having a boy or girl. That will be a super fun day! I am officially a few weeks into my second trimester but my first trimester symptoms have really hung around for a few extra weeks. I still have days where I get tired and sleepy but I can tell I am finally pulling out of the first trimester fog. When I was pregnant with Lena I didn't take very many belly pictures. I didn't even look pregnant until I was in my third trimester. My belly is finally popping a tiny bit now..barely... Here are two pictures to compare:
 |
6 weeks - 189 Pounds |
 |
16 weeks - 194 pounds |
If not to compare my belly size I can at least use them to keep track of my weight. With my last pregnancy I gained about 50-60 pounds (and I only made it to 36 weeks). So far I have gained five pounds through the first sixteen weeks. At my OB appointment a few weeks ago I got the okay to get back to exercise. Hopefully I can make some wiser choices with my food and exercise this time around so I don't have to work so long and hard to lose my baby weight this time.

CONGRATS!
Looking really good! Did you do anything different this time around that you have gained so little weight? You are doing awesome!!
You're looking great!! I haven't taken a single belly picture....probably because I just look fat at this point! Can't wait to round out in the weeks to come!
