Everything is looking good, and now the ever-2-weeks appointments start. I can not believe it is time for that. I can not believe we have just 12 weeks to go until we will meet our little baby and see his face, his tiny toes, his tiny hands. Will he have hair? Will he look like me or Hubs more? I am excited… and nervous… and scared. I can not wait.
I was fully expecting to gain a lot of weight this pregnancy. I believe with Chubbs I gained about 60 pounds, so I figured I would see the same numbers this time. WRONG. Since my last appointment 4 weeks ago, I have gained HALF a pound. That is with Christmas goodies and candies! The nurse was THRILLED, and I know that with being overweight and pregnant you should not gain a lot, but I am just shocked. Stepping on the scale I was holding my breath! I was thinking, “Oh I have for sure gained 5, maybe 10 pounds.”. I mean, I LOOK it, I FEEL it at the end of the day… but half a pound.
It makes me want to get a big cheeseburger and fries and a milkshake! :)
