20 Weeks

This Weeks Weight-199.0
Previous Weight- 198.8
______________________
Total Weight Gained- 0.2

See, I can be good. I decided that maybe it wasn't the best idea to eat sweets constantly, and I tried my best to only have one really sweet treat a day. So that makes the total over the past 20 weeks 15.6 pounds gained. That's an average of just over 3/4 of a pound per week. I can live with that. I think I can do this, I can NOT gain 60 pounds this pregnancy, I may hit 40, maybe 45, but not 60. And I hope that the weight I do gain is a little easier to take off too. Just as a heads up body, I bought a double jogging stroller, that right you have no less than 26 weeks to prepare yourself to run again. You may run really really really slow, but Yes, You will run. and you will like it.

Until then, I am enjoying being pregnant, I don't know if the differences between this pregnancy and my first are related to anything I did in the 2 years between, like trying to eat better and get more exercise, or if it is just the fact that each pregnancy is different. But I have finally hit the phase of pregnancy where I know there is a baby in there, not just because my body looks like there is, but because that baby is moving, sometimes a lot. I give little Butterball some of the credit for the 0.2 pounds we gained these past two weeks, keep up that exercising Butterball, it is really helping Mommy out!
