16 weeks, Mexico

This is a late post as we were in Mexico for my 16th week, with my amazing family! 

During my 16th week of pregnancy baby was the size of an avocado (mmmm, avocado- Yum!) at about 4.6 inches and 3.5 ounces. 

I feel perfectly fine, perhaps better than anyone in my family. My appetite seems to have slowed down a bit and is almost back to normal. I am still tired in the evenings, but Im not sure if that's just from spending my days basking and playing in the sun. I feel fine though, as if Im not pregnant- which scares me sometimes. 
Our vacation was lovely; it was so great to play and relax in the sun with Chase, Jersey, Kylie, Cam, Dennis & my parents! Every day we hung out at the beach, and at the pool in the later afternoon. The weather was gorgeous- hot and sunny. I enjoyed sunbathing. 
I feel like my belly popped a bit while on vacation. Apparently the heat can exacerbate the swollen belly. 


I found this pregnancy weight calculator which I think is cool, and helpful: http://www.fortunebaby.com/pregnancy-weight-gain-calculator.html?startCal=Y&BWeight=165&week=17. I have gained about 10 lbs. I am right on track, exactly where I should be, but I feel thick. I'm just so grateful to be so healthy and that baby is doing well (I think). 

We have a midwife appointment Thursday, March 12th at 3pm, for a check up. 

Next week, March 19th we have our next (& final) ultrasound, and gender reveal. I am so excited, I cant wait to find out!
