Here I am 16 weeks pregnant and I still can't believe that I'm sitting here with a rounded belly protruding in front of my keyboard.
So far my pregnancy has been uneventful and smooth and I'm very grateful for that. I'm still experiencing nausea and some fatigue, but it's nowhere near where it was during my first trimester. It's nice to be off of the PIO shots. Now I know that it's really my body responding to the hormones of my pregnancy.
I'm wearing maternity bottoms, but still fit into some of my cotton tops. I've gradually begun to wear both a maternity tops and bottoms to work. I'm trying to adjust my wardrobe slowly, because I haven't announced to anyone (except HR) that I'm expecting.
You would think after all the years of trying I would have banner made and hung above my desk, but surprisingly enough it has been nice to just keep my news to myself. People will know soon enough once my belly really starts to pop out.
Nights are when I really feel pregnant. Sometimes I get up as many as three times to pee, and my breasts get really sensitive when I go to bed. I don't mind it. This feeling of really being pregnant is very comforting. I love it that my belly is starting to grow.
My next appointment is in a week. Just a regular OB check up. We have our anatomy scan scheduled for the 3rd week of July. (Grow baby grow!)
Thank you for your support and prayers. Sending prayers to you on your journey.

ReplyDeleteTime is flying by it seems!! I have the same issue with getting up several times a night and the sore breasts, mainly nipples it seems even at 19 weeks. I thought that was only during the 1st trimester. Can't wait to hear how the anatomy scan goes!! Ours is coming up on the 29th!
