I haven't really had the so-called pregnacy cravings other than I have been drinking a lot of milk lately, oh, and ice cream I have never been big on milk until now. I have been told that the cravings you get are ones that you actually need more of. There is actually an article about this so if you are interested, http://babycenter.com/0_food-cravings-and-what-they-mean_1313971.bc?scid=momspreg_20080610:2&pe=2Uvj5dT. So if that's the case then I'm doing good giving my body what it needs. The two things I miss the most and are not allowed are my weekly sushi outings and my random drinking nights. I know they are things I can live without but they are both TOO good!

11 weeks 118 lbs. Just a few months before I became pregnant I weighed 122. So I actually lost some weight in the beginning. I guess it was the morning sickness, but it could also have been that I wasn't drinking all that alcohol that I was used to drinking before.

15 weeks I only gained 2 lbs. but man am I bloated and can't fit into any of my size 1 jeans. Maternity clothes here I come.

19 weeks I gained 4 lbs. so now my weight is at 125lbs. I promise I am eating a lot!

23 weeks Here comes the weight. I now weigh 131lbs.

27 weeks 136lbs. I never thought I would see that number!

30 weeks 139lbs. The doctor says I'm doing great and gaining just fine. I sure hope it slows down a little bit, lol.

32 weeks 145lbs. Still a healthy weight, not too much not too little.

So has any other ladies out there experienced those red spots they call Spider Angioma? What they are in case you are wondering are red dots, about the size of a pinhead, which small blood vessels radiate (looking like a spider). They show up on the face and arms. I have counted mine and noticed almost 10, some small. Supposably they go away soon after delivery. I sure hope so because they aren't the most attractive.

Has anybody else been having crazy, vivid dreams? Most of mine are nightmares and when I wake I am a little confused as to if they really happened. This has been going on for months so I took a little time and looked this up and apparently it's because of increased progesterone and increased awakenings. If you are experiencing this same thing well here is a helpful website http://babycenter.com/0_deciphering-your-pregnancy-dreams_7569.bc

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will tea ch you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
God said, "You will call her, 'Mommy'."
