Home Stretch
I'm 30 weeks today Wednesday August 16th. Wow! only 9 more weeks to go. ........ Today I weighed in at 119. So that is better than yesterday. I don't understand why my weight keeps going up and down. I weigh myself the same time everyday. As soon as I get out of bed before I eat anything. Johan stands on it everyday too and it always reads 183 day after day after day. So I don't think it is the scale giving different results. Why can't I seem to get past 120. People keep telling me to eat more like they think I don't eat enough. I eat, eat, and eat. How much more can I possibly eat. And I'm not eating things like lettuce, I always try to go for the most fatty calorie packed food. That is not the problem and I wish people would stop telling me to eat more. Don't they think I thought of that. |

What Happened?
Today when I weighed myself the scale said I weighed only 117.5 , that is down 2 and a half pounds from yesterday. I had Johan stand on the scale and he weighed in at exactly what he weighed yesterday. And I even ate pizza and a snickers bar yesterday among other things. I always weigh myself the same time everyday. As soon as I get up in the morning before I eat anything. I don't know, we'll see what I weigh tomorrow. ........ My dad has been here this weekend. He's on vacation but I put him to work in the nursery. He installed shelving in the closet yesterday. And today he hung a shade to block the light and hung the window valance. I'll take pictures and post them, but I need to take down the valance and iron it first. ........ And we bought decrative wooden shelves to hang on the wall and I bought the stars for the walls too. I still have to paint everything first. But I have all the stuff to do it now. The shelves will be white and the stars will be blue. ...... We also went to a party store and bought a bunch of decorations for the shower. And I got one of those lawn signs to put out side after the baby is born that says "It's A Boy". Of course I'm sure Johan will say that it is corny and won't want to put it out there. But I'll make him. At least I didn't get the 5 foot sign. And I've been working on putting together the invitations. I need to buy more ribbon before I finish them, I ran out. ....... Lets see what else...... Thursday is my ultrasound. Then Friday is my next appointment with my doctor. I've felt pretty good lately. I've had 3 days off from work so my feet havent' been hurting at all. But back to the daily grind tomorrow. |

120 finally!
I weighed myself today at 120. Although yesterday I did weigh in at 118.5 But hopefully that 120 will stick. We'll see what I weigh tomorrow. ......... I went on Saturday to Babies R Us and attended a workshop on nursing. They make it seem so difficult. Also the things you need to go along with nursing are so expensive. I was going to buy some stuff but I think I got sticker shock when I saw the prices. |

Monday, Monday
One more thing I forgot to say is that at Babies R Us if you buy something off the registry they have a free self service wrapping station. So you don't need to spend money on wrapping paper. ....... I went to the dentist today to get my teeth cleaned and they wouldn't do it because I was pregnant. On pregnant women they would only do work if I was in pain and then I need to have forms filled out by my doctor. So I made another appointment for December. It will be almost 1 year since I've had my teeth cleaned. Oh well I guess. ...... I thought I had gained a bit of weight over the weekend. On Sunday I weighed myself at 119.5 pounds. But today I was back down to 118. Which is what the doctor weighed me at. I'm eating french toast right now with a strawberry protien shake from GNC. It's difficult to try to eat more food. It's like I feel stuffed all the time. |
