Catmum- Bonnie is such a sunny, cheerful name, may she be a ray of light in your lives xx also- good job with having a healthy pregnancy lifestyle and losing weight like you’re supposed to according to your doctors. I’m impressed! I’m also officially on a “diet”/ different eating plan these days as I gained an enormous amount of weight from eating way too much. I’m hoping my weight gain will stabilize as I’m very ashamed of my body atm, uncomfortable and I know it’s going to be hard to lose it again after A is born
Joanna- is there any special meaning to Patrick/Jeremy for you guys to make the choice easier?
Co_foster as long as you’re getting your protein and taking prenatal vitamins.... Are you getting your iron levels tested? I also take 1000mg calcium, extra iron and omega 3 supplements because I’m concerned I don’t get enough of those from my diet (although as I’ve said I eat a lot and though most is healthy, a lot is/was specifically cake!) I asked dr to test my iron levels and will get them tested monthly from now on as I was anaemic during my previous pregnancy. I’m also counting my protein intake in grams to try and ensure I get 75g. Those steps help me feel more in control regarding baby’s nutrition. I doubt that it’s a problem if you don’t gain now as long as your dr says you are ok! Hugs!
I go back to work on Tuesday and dreading it...
