26-9-2009 - 21 weeks with baby Noah.

My mood while writing this blog: BIG.

So I am 21 weeks along.

I had my appointment on weds

and i have gained a whopping 20 pounds. UGHH

that is soooo depressing!

i only gained 24 total w/

my past 4 pregnancies!!!

Dr. Blasingame blames it on

the depo shot.

I guess that has to be it because

i do not eat sweets.

i have maybe 1 sweet thing a month.

I just do not care for them at the moment.

i gave up soda.

I barely eat anything because i feel full after just a few bites.

TYPICALLY before i was pregnant i could eat 3 tacos, or 5 slices of pizza,

and now i can only eat 1 taco and 1 slice of pizza! So that tells you how much my appetite changed!

The other day my mom took me to olive garden and i ate some calamari, all of my salad..just one serving of it

half a piece of bread and then when the main course came out i only had 5 bites!

i took it home to my husband nad he ate it.

im hoping the weight just slows down now, and i just gain at the end w/ baby.

Not that being "skinny" is everything, but it's really difficult when you are use to being tiny.

Before i had my fi rst child i was 117 pounds. I am 5 ft 8 and a hlaf inches tall.

A lot of ppl said i was annorexic but i wasnt. I was very athletic in school, and i could eat and eat and not gain a pound.

i actually was only 90 pounds until doctors put me on a pill to gain wait because they thought thats why i was getting migraines.

before i got pregnant with thsi baby i was 148 and happy with that weight. i still had some tummy toning to do, but that was all

Im just afraid with this one if i keep gaining like this i will have a hard time getting it off! :(

With Noah i have gained all over.

With the others i was ALL belly.

i guess only time will tell.

He is measuring a week bigger than he should.

I hope you are all doing well!

Much love!
