How far along? 16 weeks!!!
Total weight gain: lost 1; down 6 for pregnancy
Maternity clothes? officially, yes. I tried to wear a pair of non-maternity pants that got me well past 22w last time, and I could only keep them buttoned for about 30 seconds.
Sleep: Getting a little better. I've still been having strange dreams. I've dreamt about two ex boyfriends in the last week. It's bizarre.
Best moment this week: having so many people comment on how cue my bump is getting.
Movement: Yep. Nothing super consistent, but it is definitely there, and definitely the baby. I think in the future, I'll feel comfortable saying that I felt the baby move between 15-16w.
Gender: I'm still leaning towards thinking that it is a girl, just because of the lack of boy seen at last weeks ultrasound, not to mention the consistent heartrate in the 150s (151 today) and the fact that this baby is measuring so big -- in the 80th pecentile, as opposed to the boys' single digits.
Labor Signs: Nope.
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss : More energy.
What I am looking forward to: Another ultrasound in one week, and then the big reveal to our family the next!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Try not to put more than 12 hours between my BP med dosages.
Milestones: Consistently GOOD blood pressure reading -- 125/82 today!!!!

15w update
How far along? 15w2d
Total weight gain: gained 2; down 5 for pregnancy
Maternity clothes? only as desired, but not always necessary.
Sleep: I'm sleeping through the night, but not resting well. My dreams have left me exhausted and worn in the mornings.
Best moment this week: taking my dear friend to my u/s with me. Having another girl along made it my most fun u/s ever.
Movement: We found out at the u/s that my placenta is in the back, so the tech said that there is a good chance that the flutters I've been feeling are indeed the baby -- especially when it was obvious that I have a big-time wiggleworm on my hands.
Gender: Due to the fact that the tech didn't see any boy parts today, I'm thinking maybe we ar getting a girl. But who knows?
Labor Signs: Nope.
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss : My appetite.
What I am looking forward to: Telling my extended family at the Christmas holiday. Only 13 days to go!
Weekly Wisdom: Keep taking my folic acid pills, even though I HATE them with passion.
Milestones: Consistently GOOD blood pressure reading -- 118/82!!!! And everything looks fantiastic with Chicklet: 10 fingers, 10 toes, 4 chambered heart, 3 vessel cord, beautiful spine, and darling profile. Measuring 4 days ahead, and steady heartbeat of 157.
