Still kickin’…

I’m now in the home stretch. 8 weeks to go! What’s odd is that I’ve only gained 20 lbs so far…. I think I put on 35 in my last pregnancy so I’m definitely not as large with #3.  I’m sure it helps that this time around I’m craving watermelon and nectarines rather than massive pieces of chocolate cake every day. (I’m sure the baby will be a hefty one like his sisters, though — they were 10-pounders. My husband was 13 lbs when he was born, so I’m gettin’ off easy. Sort of.)

I’m sleeping much better and no longer feel that horrible suicidal pull that I had several months ago. Amazing what a little sleep gives you. My extreme fatigue isn’t easy but evidently I’m anemic, so hopefully an iron supplement will help.

Meanwhile I’m thinking I’ll undergo a blog redesign (”re” is pushing it — it’s more like an actual design for once) and get back to my original theme of dropping the weight once the baby arrives in September. Nothing like fall fashion to get me in the mood to lose the puff.
