Just need to vent a little...
I started this pregnancy at 225lbs. I wasn't "happy" with being that heavy, but I wasn't uncomfortable with my body. I've really been trying to love my body at any size.
Now, today I am 32 weeks. Up until this point I have been doing really great with my weight gain (mind you, I am the only person telling myself to keep my gaining under control. My doctor has never once brought up my weight because I am otherwise healthy with no GD).
But I weighed myself this morning and have officially gained 15lbs. I realize how this amount is going to seem insignificant to some. But to me, it is more than I was hoping to have gained at this point. YES I realize I am making a person. YES I realize that this isnt a huge amount in the grand scheme of things... But up until today, I honestly had just been trying to eat healthy, stay hydrated, and exercise when I can. My weight has not been something I was really thinking about. I think it was just seeing the "240" on the scale that has made me a little sad 😞
Anyways....thanks for letting me vent a little. I am fine. Baby boy is healthy. I can't wait to meet him 😍 I'm just in an emotional rut today.
