16 weeks

How far along? 16 weeks y'all.

Babies are: about 4.5 inches long and weigh about 3.5 ounces.
at my 16 week appt yesterday i had a quick ultrasound to see heartbeats and check my cervix (which is at 4.3 and excellent) Baby boy B's HB was at 158 and baby A's 142. the tech told me yesterday that baby B is a boy and the tech 2 weeks ago told us if she had to guess she would guess baby A is a boy also....but we won't know for sure until next month. but we may have two little boys soon!!! ahhhh. although i will say that i have always and still do without meaning to refer to baby A as she/her. so my sub-conscience may be very wrong haha...but it seems my intuition was right for baby B! we are so beyond thrilled no matter what these sweet babies are. (and i'm not just saying that) i just want to know for suuuure.

Maternity clothes? well i can't button my jeans anymore. so kind of lol. i haven;t decided if i'll buy a pair of maternity jeans or just live in leggings and maxi skirts,

Sleep: awful. i don't sleep well at all. sometimes i lie awake for hours. HOURS. but that's just part of motherhood.

Best moment this week: all the moments :) i'm so so happy to be alive and *feeling* more alive than i have in months. even with the complete exhaustion.

Hardest moment this week: scarlett has had some intense expressions of her feelings recently. she has never screamed so loud and tried to hit me in anger like she has the last couple weeks. those moments have been the hardest.

Miss anything? SLEEPING.

Cravings: coffee. i'm not a coffee drinker. i drink tea. but i have totally craved it the last few weeks. it smells soooooo good. otherwise i have just craved real, whole, home cooked meals. anything. tho i can't eat more than a few bites before i'm full.

Symptoms: i'm so so tired. but the nausea is *mostly* gone! i still feel sick if i don't eat often enough or eat too much and even tho every couple days i'll feel extra sick and throw up a couple times it is not even close to the degree it was. i have to pee alllll the time. that's pretty much it. the biggest thing right now is being so tired. which no doubt has a lot to do with the fact that i don't sleep well at night.

Looking forward to: feeling my babies move :) i so so cannot wait.
