That is annoying Littlestars! I will try to plan baby's bday parties to be at home...
Well, I had my OB checkup today and got in trouble for my weight gain. 10 lbs in one month. Apparently I am not supposed to keep gaining 10 lbs per month... that would be bad I felt a little better when she was checking for his heartbeat with the Doppler and he gave her a big ole kick and she said "WHOA! That is a big kick for a 22 weeker!" DH saw it from across the room! Hehe.
The OB said, "You know, you gained 10 lbs this month but that's not the baby. The baby doesn't weigh 10 lbs." I said, "Yeah, but his foot might."
Argh, anyway. More walking for me, and less brownies I guess. I feel like I could eat everything in sight though.
That ol poop! They have to go and add the weight gain issue in. While I can see that they get concerned about too much weight gain correlated with Gestational Diabetes I DO think that with you "little" momma's it's just what your body is needing at the time and it will balance itself out just as it is with those of us who are heavy who aren't gaining all that much at all. It's not hurting the baby and frankly losing weight is something I can appear to lose that most likely won't come off so easy once the baby is here because of how sluggish my metabolism usually is with hypothyroid/Type II diabetes and insulin combo.
Take it easy, try to eat as healthy as you can and try not to stress too much dear friend.
