Celebrate

Well, it only took the fertility specialists 2 shots but it worked--I'm expecting. I'm in the safe zone now so I feel good to talk about it. I'm 16 weeks.

I finally gained some more weight. At first I lost a few pounds and I think the doctor was concerned. I certainly wasn't. It's not like I was counting caleries and I had been eating a few blizzards and shivers with candy toppings. At my last visit, the doc said you need to gain more. He'll be surprised when he sees me in a few weeks as I gained 10 pounds--eeks. I know it's healthy and that it's ok, but I'm not thrilled with the large numbers on the scale. It's difficult to accept. I can't wait until 9 months are up and I have a beautiful baby in my arms. So far, it's not been too tough of a pregnancy. I've just had a few problems here and there.
