How far along: 16 weeks today
Total weight gain: 4 pounds. I think I am starting to show now.
Maternity clothes: I have moved up a pants size, but I am not is maternity clothes just yet. I have ordered some, though, because I know my time in regular pants is limited...
Stretch marks: nope
Sleep: I wish there was more time for sleep. Ah, how I love it. I started to sleep with an extra pillow in between my legs. I can't quite get comfortable and end up tossing and turning all night. Let's not forget my nightly trek to the bathroom at about 4 am! Oh, and I am hot, which is totally not the norm for me.
Best moment this week: There were two: 1) I felt the baby move several times this week! It is surreal. I think he/she has turned, though, because I am not feeling the movements as often. 2) The boys are finally open to the idea of having a baby around the house! Until now, they kept telling me they didn't want a baby. Lol.
Belly button in or out?: in
Cravings: lumpia and pancit, pickles, chocolate, instant breakfast, french fries, and more chocolate
Dr. appointments?: I had an OB appointment on Thursday. The baby's heart beat was a steady 150 beats per minute. Things look good so far. :-) The next appointment (with the high risk doctor) is November 5.
What I am looking forward to: Making it passed that first milestone--24 weeks. That is considered viability for a pregnancy. Of course I'd like to make it to 37 weeks or beyond, but I am setting mini-goals along the way.

Lumpia and pancit sounds good to me too. This baby has good taste. You, warm, never heard of such a thing:) Glad all is going well. Love you all.
Yay! I agree with the mini milestones plan - gives you lots to celebrate as you meet them all - which you will :)
