I hit the 16 week (4 month) mark on Saturday. Yay! Every week seems to simultaneously fly by and crawl like a snail. Which is strange. I’ve not experienced that before.
The Mini-Miller is now 4 1/2 inches from crown to rump, approximately the size of an avocado, weighs about 3 1/2 ounces and is developing toenails! SO exciting!
This week my energy level is slightly less than normal. I am pretty tired as I’m not sleeping enough...still. But it’s hard for me to judge as we facilitated a funeral luncheon at work that I helped out with and those are always exhausting—pregnant or not.
Cravings: none, really. Maybe quesadillas or Mexican food—chips & salsa sounds good...in reality, I will eat anything that isn’t a salad or that I don’t have to make. There is nothing that stands out to me as a super-strong, I-must-have-that-or-I-will-die craving at this time.
Other thoughts & observations: It is work to be pregnant. Definitely not easy. My back already hurts a bit and it seems that every day my body is different than it was the day before. Oh, and beans are of the devil. Seriously. And fried foods are also evil (which is a good thing, except when traveling...).
Eventually I will post pictures with these weekly posts, when I feel like there is something to track. :)
