Good morning ladies,
Mrsgoodhart, Happy 18 weeks!! I can't believe we're almost 1/2 way done either!!!
I had lost 50lbs before our wedding and sadly have gained back about 30.
So I wasn't happy with my body before getting pregnant, so I totally understand where you're coming from on gaining the pregnancy weight. But yes, it's very important we gain the healthy amount of weight for our little ones. Like you said, it's baby, not fat. I need to keep telling myself that.
maryanne, I'm excited to hear about your gender scan!! Can't wait to find out what you're having!!
confuzion, glad all is going well for you. You're almost to 18 weeks!! My doctor said the exact same thing about me not gaining weight yet.
Bug, I'm glad baby is looking good. Hopefully the protein in your urine doesn't change and was just a coincidence. Just keep taking care of yourself. Your anatomy scan isn't too far away!! How exciting!!
yazzy, happy 16 weeks!!
carebear, that's funny your husband just noticed your baby belly. Mine's been showing for a bit now, but seems to get bigger every day!!
We should all post bump pictures!! That way we can all know our bump is normal size. LOL!! I'm sure we all have more of a bump then we thought we'd have by now. I'll post mine after this post!! As for me, I'm tired today. Not sure why, just sleepy. Other than that my main symptoms right now are slightly sore boobs, super sensitive in a bad way nipples, quite a bit darker areolas too. I get fuller faster, but my appetite is increasing it seems like. It seems like I've sneezed more since I got pregnant then the entire past year!! LOL!! Sometimes it feels like I'm slightly getting a cold, but never do. Think it's just pregnancy nose or something. My hips have started bugging me and my back bugs me at times too. I get round ligament pain every now and then as well and I can't seem to sleep real great. Other than that I'm not doing to bad. I'll get my bump picture posted to compare!!
