weigh in...

I had my every other week appointment earlier today to see if I've gained any weight and doctor seemed happy. Yay! I've been feeling good and been trying to eat consciously and healthily. Doesn't happen all the time. For example, I was on a key lime frozen pie kick for about 2 weeks. If I could find key lime pie ice cream, I would be in sheer heaven!!!

I've gained 9.5 pounds since the beginning of the pregnancy and I think they seemed satisfied with that amount of weight gain. Especially now that I'm showing, I guess that puts them more at ease that the baby is growing and I'm not starving it! I've been feeling pretty good. Still somewhat tired, but that is probably just the heat and staying on top of everything for work.

It seems like I'm always going to the doctor's office and it's just been monthly for the check-ups and then in between for my weigh in appointments. We have our regular monthly check up on the 15th and then after that we start going every other week because we'll be at 28 weeks. I was surprised when I saw the appointment schedule...it's all ready that time? I guess that means the pregnancy is going well and quickly for me!
