I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm sure I read somewhere that you start to lose weight when you are near the end of your pregnancy because you can't eat as much.....
Celebrate it! 5lb's less to lose afterwards! xxxx |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I wouldn't be too worried. If you think about it, not all the weight gained during pregnancy goes to the baby, so if you've been eating better and exercising more or something it probably just came off of the "security weight" that builds up. Also it's summer and before I was pregnant I would always lose weight in the summer no matter how badly I ate. Also the past couple weeks I've been eating so much junk food and barely exercising and I've only gained a pound. If your still worried though you can always call your midwife or doctor and double check. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | 5 lbs doesn't seem too bad over three weeks, that's right around where I have been so... I have to say that the whole losing weight thing has been a bit funny though, it seems like every pound I lose OH seems to find them all |
