Aww, Congratulations!! I agree, you guys are super cute together. I always have to check out your pics when you put them up. :) Like everyone else said, just eat healthy and it will all work out. Just don't do what I did with my first, I gained 70 pounds. I used it as an EXCUSE too eat!! Bad, bad, mistake!
You'll do fine. Oh how exciting for you. My niece just found out she is having a boy, she is naming him Skylar. It's so fun watching everyone having babies!! Tell us how your friends and parents react. Good luck!

Glad you found a good man and hope he luvs ya like you deserved to be loved!! Stay healthy and happy and your little one will be blessed to have you as a Mommy!!
I had the same fear you did... sadly mine played out just as I feared. I had lost alot of weight a few years back... over 70lbs.. maintained it for 4 years.. got married and brought back a honeymoon surprise. I gained it all back and added a few extra. But in all honesty, there were alot of aspects to the weight gain.. I was high risk at the end and was on bed rest so I couldnt stay active and I was in the hospital about 4 times being pumped full of meds to try to bring my bp down so I wouldnt have a seizure. I am almost certain all my weight was gained the two months before my son was born. Now, he is One and I am pregnant again and never lost that weight. But I am 16 weeks into it and I have actually lost 2lbs rather than gaining any! I am being smart about this one... watching my weight (I never did that before with my son.. I wanted to pretend I didnt have weight then.. lol)... making sure I eat as regularly and often as possible... and being active when I can. Since I am so overweight, my dr said if I do end up with a low to no gain that it completely healthy for me because of all my extra weight. With my son, when I was smaller, she wanted me to gain 30lbs at least. So when you DO gain remember its baby.
I am sure you will do great! And yes...blame your bf as much as possible as you get bigger in the pregnancy. lol I know I blame my husband all the time.. as I am struggling with this extra weight I tell him its all his fault! Him and that darn penis of his! lol He just laughs and says sorry. Keep us posted on how everything goes! :) You'll be great! Babies are worth it... I hate the weight, but if I had to trade in my son to get my body back I woudlnt.. he is so wonderful to have in my life.. I can't remember life without him. You'll see! :)

On the fence about self-pay options and if Mexico is the right choice (or scared of that option)? Let my experience (first time ever in Mexico) be your guide. Don't let fear hold you back!
