For the most part, I have been very lucky in that I haven’t been struggling too much with food cravings. However ~ every once in a while I will get the worst craving in the WORLD for something that I know that I can’t have. And usually when I want one thing I can’t have? I want them all. So yes, I would like a spicy tuna roll, with a wood chuck, and some hot dogs stuffed with cheese and wrapped up in a crescent roll with a side of ramen noodles. PLEASE?!
I don’t know about the rest of you pregnant ladies out there, but my husband is an absolute stickler when it comes to these things. That being said, in the beginning, when he felt I wasn’t gaining enough weight (who made him the doctor?) he was all about loading me up with potato chips, ice cream and the like.
At our last visit, I was very proud that I had only gained 3 pounds ~ putting me at a total of 13 lbs. gained thus far. This was right at 22 weeks and it had been a month in between visits. Go me. Here’s to hoping I can keep that trend and only gain the other 12 lbs. I’m shooting for because let’s be honest, nobody wants to hit that 200 lb. mark for the first time in their life……….
On another note, now that baby shower invitations have started pouring into homes, Maggie and I are receiving our first wave of gifts. Do you have any idea how exciting that is? You know it’s bad when you’re jumping for joy after receiving a $40 Wal Mart gift card. Hey, I hear we will go through a LOT of diapers this winter.
I’m going to hop in the shower and pick up my groceries but when I come back: expect another blog with a bit more substance. Hope that you all had a fantastic week and have some great things coming up for the first week of May.
Sincerely,
~Nikki
