I know all the woman reading this are going to roll their eyes, but I am suppose to document my pregnancy and well a monumental thing has happened. I am now almost two weeks into my 5th month and I have finally gained (and look to be keeping) my first 3 lbs. Yes this may sound like a stupid thing to be grateful for, but when the weeks start turning into months and you haven't even gained a pound, you start to wonder if everything you are eating is somehow missing an important step - feeding the baby!
Now I will probably regret ever fussing over this. Especially when these 3 lbs lead to 15 lbs, which will lead to more pounds, which will finally lead to me crying; but for now I will just be excited and enjoy the small miracle.
Just tune back in later for part 2 of this saga when I regret even wishing I would gain weight in the first place.

I totally understand this. I only gained 6 lbs. by month 5 with the twins. It's the fact that the baby is stealing all the food that you haven't gain much. Good luck!!
