My last doctor's visit revealed that I have gained 39 lbs so far during my pregnancy! Yikes! They claim I should gain 35–40 lbs overall. If that were true, I would be looking 9 months pregnant right now. I can tell you I have never seen a lady with a belly as small (that doesn't seem like the right adjective—my belly is a pregnant one...just not a 9 month looking one!) as mine that is in her 9th month!
I must say I have had the worst eating habits during pregnancy. I think Pat has appreciated that. I eat more fruit, more carbs, crave red meat...and don't particularly care for vegetables—salads in particular. I try to do some exercise every morning now...but it can be tough. In any case, I just hope that I don't pack on a load more. I don't trust my ability to maintain my balance while descending the subway stairs on a cold winter's day if I am too top heavy.
That reminds me...I know I said I was going to work on posting belly photos. I am going to work on it. It is on the massive To Do list. We took photos at 4 months, 5 months, 6 months, 7 months and now weekly. There is one photo I am trying to locate still and we have not uploaded the last 2 photos. I will post some before delivery...I will promise that much! So, stay tuned!
