Ahhhh, 16 weeks! I have an appetite, energy, and a belly that's definitely growing!! (I'll have a belly pic up later tonight...camera battery decided to die when we tried taking the pic earlier.) While I'm starting to stress about getting a nursery ready (we're putting our condo on the market next month, hoping to move to a larger place that's closer to work and the hospital by September), I'm beginning to feel like I might be able to handle things. I've also registered for prenatal yoga classes, which should help me manage the worry a bit better!
We find out Bun's sex in a little over 4 weeks, until which I'm taking care of gender-neutral registry items. I've registered for most of the small stuff (bottles, pacifiers, bath stuff, etc..), and Ben and I have picked out boy and girl bedding sets. We've also decided on the Graco Snugfit infant car seat, and we'll be checking out coordinating strollers at Babies R Us before too long. My mom and stepdad are visiting us July 4th weekend, at which point Mom and I will be hunting for nursery furniture. So things are moving along well...I just need a room to put Bun in! ;)
Potentially the biggest news of the weekend: I think I felt Bun move this afternoon!! I'm really not sure, and I know 16 weeks is a bit early for feeling movement as a first-time mommy. But I definitely felt a sort of popcorn-like sensation - irregular and faint - where Bun is supposedly located while lying down this afternoon. I figure I'll start spending a few minutes a day lying down and paying attention, just in case. I understand it should start to get stronger in the coming weeks if it really was Bun. For now, my imagination of Bun's acrobatics is making my day!!
