As I've stated before, my first pregnancy resulted in 70 lbs weight gain, water retention, and a terrible diet with no exercise. The end result? An emergency c section and a body that did not go back to pre baby weight. Although - I did get 10 lbs away before I got pregnant again!
Anyways, it just so happened that I found a picture on my
facebook album that had me pregnant with #1 at 34 weeks and 5 days. I had to take a picture with #2 and compare! I was amazed and my midwife couldn't believe it!
I do feel different and so much happier that I am feeling better with this pregnancy. It gives me hope for a VBAC and hope for a successful weight loss after baby is born. I wont lie though, this third trimester is kicking my tushy! My cravings are simply insane and I am feeling very tired. I know it's just how pregnancy works but wow... I've decided to become a little more strict when it comes to sleeping. In bed by 10, read a book, knit, whatever but no tv, facebook or anything else. I usually read. Right now, I'm reading
The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. The sleep schedule is really helping. I also am staying strict with my diet. I have too. I worked way to hard to have a healthy pregnancy through this that I wont give up now!
So thats my update for now. It is possible to make a difference in your pregnancy and your life! Feel free to
message me if you have any questions!
