Weight Gain

When I first got pregnant I gained a bit of weight, but then lost it.  It scared the shit out of me, but now that she(?) is moving around, I am ok with the lower weight.

I had been holding steady for a while, but now I've pretty much lost another little piece of my previous gain.  I have a fairly obvious pregnant belly and the "girls" are getting a little more attention these days, if you know what I mean, but my weight is really just one pound higher than it was when I got my positive pregnancy test.

I just wish I could remember how I gained with Abby.  I know my end weight with her, but how I got there is a complete mystery to me.  I tend to think I gained more with her right off the bat, but I can't verify that.

I'm not fighting this.  I'm kind of glad, and my OB/GYN is pleased as well.  I just find it funny that my belly is sticking out so far (relatively), yet I've only got one more pound than what I started with.

I don't feel like I eat too little.  I don't throw up.  There's no reason for this.  It's just one more of those things that's probably overdrawing my Karma Credit Account!  I'm a lucky girl.  I know this.  Am I lucky enough to be one of those that barely gains and walks out of the hospital in her old jeans?  Be still my heart!  There's no way -- after leaving the hospital a bloated, "cankled" mess when I had Abby -- that I expect this, but a girl can dream, right?
