16 Weeks!

Oh my gosh! Here I am complaining about stressing out and I totally forgot that today marks my 16th week! Well there's something to lift my spirits! Wow I am such a wuss... a crybaby. sheesh. I need to be a man (so to speak).


So here's the babycenter.com pic for 16 weeks. Parents.com only has monthly pics. It's so interesting to me that week from week when I read what the updates are online, it's like right on with me. For instance, today it talked about a pain a woman could experience at this time called a round ligament pain which basically is due to the ligaments strectching and thickening as the uterus grows to support it. Ok but here's the crazy thing. It says that you may feel the pain in your bikini line area shooting upward and outward towards your hips. How crazy is it that JUST today I felt that exact pain!? So that's why I say my pregnancy is right on with these weekely updates. It's kind of cool. Makes me think that my EDD (estimated due date) is probably really close to when Bagel will make his/her first appearance in this crazy ass world.


What else did I learn? That Bagel is probably about the size of an avocado and about 4 1/2 inches long and 3 1/2 oz. But, in just about a few weeks that is supposedly all going to double. eeeek!!! :)


I've also noticed that I can eat! Not necessarily anything as there are still amny things I don't like, but at least I can eat something that Bagel will agree to and eat all of it! But on the other hand, I need to be careful because then I may pack on some unnecessary pounds and I don't want that! I really need to get this prenatal yoga video I saw. They have it Barnes & Noble, but for $20 and I know amazon.com has it for like $12! So we'll see. I just hope I get it sooner rather than later before it's too late! Atleast I go walking which I probable should do more of. I only do it on the weekends.
