Why hello there!

Maternity jeans have arrived at the Gustafson home. I don't feel quite big enough yet to wear them but  jeans are physically impossible for me anymore. On the good note though, I have 1 pair of work pants that still fit although I'm sure the girls at work are wondering if I ever wash them since I wear them every other day!!

I went to the Dr on Wednesday and left quite deflated. Going in, I was hoping for some great news but ended with no new ultrasound pics, no gender revelation, and the Dr telling me that he didn't like my baby already!! You see, my little lima bean didn't move almost the whole appt. Last time they couldn't get any good looks because he/she was so active and this time, it was nap time. So, I left with no new info but so glad to see the spine looked strong, the baby has the right size head, and next time we should be able to tell the gender no problem.

Things I'm noticing at 16 weeks:

• I'm always hot... the fan is constantly on at work or else I'm fanning myself
• My belly is growing  :)
• I've had a little discomfort this week in my lower abdomen from beginning to stretch. Nothing major, just different!
• I'm so, so, so antsy to start on the nursery. We have decided what we want to go with whether it's a boy or girl so now we just wait...

Thanks for reading.
