Merry X'mas Everyone!

Dec 29, 2009

Dec 29, 2009 - so, I am now approx 5 1/2 months preggie (23 weeks).  In the beginning I had a lot of "all day sickness", not just "morning sickness", so I was constantly loosing & gaining the same 7-8 lbs.  Then when I entered my 2nd trimester, I started to feel a lot better...and started eating.   I was down to 161 lbs, and now I'm at 178 lbs...which is approx a gain of 17 lbs total.   My nutritionist told me that I should expect around a 20-25 lb gain...so as long as I don't go nuts in the last trimester - I'm on track.
      
Before being preggie although I might not have been the ideal weight according to doctor charts (I'm 5'4 1/2), I felt I looked really good.  I was at a comfy size 10.   I gave away all of my clothes btwn size 16-22...but did keep size 12 & 14's. Around week 15, I moved from my size 10's to my size 12's & then around week 18, I moved into size 14's (but with a baggy butt).   Just this past week I had to admit that the size 14's are just too snug around my waist - so I am now wearing pregnancy jeans (which is pretty ironic that I'm back to wearing elastic waist pants - LOL)
