I am 16 weeks today. Yay! And according to the Bump, Baby is the size of an avocado. I like avocados.
I also had my 16 week check up. Everything looks great. I think I may have gained 4 pounds since my last visit. That doesn't sound too bad. BP is good and low, and that's good because of my history with pre-e. And.....I finally got to hear Baby's heartbeat!! I've seen Baby twice and his heartbeat was measured at the NT scan but there was no sound. Let me tell you, that is one of the best sounds ever. It makes me want to go out and buy one of those home doppler things. But everything looks good and I go back in a month. Ooh, and on that day I'll be at the 20 week mark, half way there. Man, time is flying!!
