frustrated....

with my weight....I know Im pregnant I shouldnt worry about my weight but I gained 13 lbs in a month...thats alittle insane...and thats with being more active...but inspite of that weight gain jump I had to push to be sent for a glucose test....I find that to be a little rediculous...I understand my numbers were good for the last one but that was 3 months ago...and Im feeling really fatiguted, and I dont want to wait until something shows up in my urine to be sent for a glucose test, I want to find out early and do something about it....in the mean time, I need to eat more fruits and veggies...and cut down on the bread....so here it goes

Alot of that extra weight is extra fluids so that's one thing.. water, extra blood flow, etc. 13 lbs is alot and it's good that you and your doctors are just checking things out to make sure everything is a-ok. Chances are, everything probably is. Every woman handles pregnancy differently. In the first few months when i was carrying James I lost 8 lbs due to feeling nauseas and the nurse was determined to make me out to just purposely not eating and sent me to a nutrition class that I never went to because right after, my hunger was furious and I gained about 10 lbs right at my 2nd trimester began. lol And then after that it was normal and steady. And some of that weight may also be muscle. Just keep us posted with how doing.. sounds like everything will be fine. xoxo
Oh and also..I read your entry about maybe wanting to be or not be on your meds for breastfeeding. As long as Marty gets some good nutrition don't make yourself go crazy with whether it's the breast or not. If you need your meds than that may trump whether he gets the boobie or not (lol). And if you breastfeed then fantastic. You could even just give him some of the early milk/colostrum if you wanted and then bottle feed. Lactation consultants are so helpful with this sort of thing and I'm sure whatever you do will be the best decision. I should have spoken to a LC but never did..especially with james. I only regret not doing that (at least just talking to a LC) .otherwise, that kid loved the bottle and that's fine by me. lol
