Um... holy crap. Methinks it's time to kick it down a notch, LOL. I think the baby is happy though, because she finally decided to "bump out" today. I'll be going to the grocery store to stock up on some healthier snacks. Part of the weight gain might also be because I haven't pooped in about 5 days, lol.

Whoa! I'd be a little concerned about the lack of poo-age! You better pick up some stool softeners while you're at the store too! : )

Congrats though! Sounds like you're doing good.

Confession:

For  a week or two I was secretly eating a Starbucks Bacon Breakfast sandwich. My weight was picking up some. On Friday I had my last one after looking up the nutritional info. It is almost 400 calories. I promply started substituting a Muscle Milk Light instead. 160 calories and a lot more nutritious. Small things get us, huh?!

I've been here since 2002, I just like to pretend I am NEW!

Oh, totally! Actually, it's funny because shortly after I wrote this I was finally able to go. Haha! Thank god the Poop Fairy finally came. And yes, the small things. I know this all too well! I'm terrified of having a bunch of bad habits to break when I'm postpartum, so I'm trying to be good NOW so that it'll be easier later on. Damn pregnancy cravings!!!

I have been waking up in the middle of the night and eating tootsie rolls, and other candy that I know I should not eat.

I bought some Zagnuts today. Have you ever had one? It's like the inside of a Butterfinger (crispy peanut butter) rolled in toasted coconut. OMG. They're so good. When I eat one, it's like frolicking in the back hair of an angel.

Don't freak out too much. You're at the place in your pregnancy where the weight starts packing on the baby too so don't worry.

I have to take 2 senna and 1 stool softener twice daily other wise I would be totally backed up!

I delivered 6 weeks early a 5lb 15oz lil boy:)  After spending 2 months on bed rest in the hospital and Mason spending 11 days in the NICU, we're both home and doing great!  Mason is getting bigger and gaining weight like he should.  Now it's my turn to lose this weight!  It's tough to get back on the band wagon...I CAN do this!

I had the poop problem and I was told to not take stool softeners so I took fiber supplements and that worked for me. My mom thinks that I am weight crazy and its hard because I am so scared of gaining the weight and not being able to lose it right away. So be careful but I know those cravings can be hard to beat had my moment's!
