18 weeks to go! Miss Aleena is very very active these days. Sometimes I wonder if she sleeps at all. I bet she'll be a spaz like her dad lol. I'm up 3.5lbs from pre pregnancy weight. Glad I'm gaining, but also glad it's all baby. I feel like I have a tapeworm these days. Always so hungry. My SO is loving that now that football season has started, because I've got yummy meals cooking all day on top of making tons of snacks for game time. Sundays are awesome at our house right now! Lol! Still not sleeping well. I've come to terms with the fact that I princely won't for at least another year. I'm always uncomfortable whether I'm awake or in bed. Still having nonstop Braxton Hicks and cramping. Trying to stay very hydrated!!

	Comment from SarahEMcCormick » Posted Sep. 22, 2015 1:20pm You're so lucky to have only gained a few pounds, and that it's all baby. I am already up 13 lbs and I'm just now getting into the second trimester! I think its because I wasn't eating much before the pregnancy, and now all I do is want to eat - very healthy for the most part, but food nonetheless. Try to stay as hydrated as possible for those BH contractions for sure. xo

I have only gained 7 pounds back after losing 20+ in first trimester but Olivia is measuring great so I guess i will relax about trying to bulk up lol
	Comment from Summer0120 » Posted Sep. 16, 2015 1:38pm You're right! Baby needs it. It's amazing though how I was losing and then just not gaining at all, and then BAM a pound a week for the last three weeks. Definitely ok with that as long as she healthy and getting what she needs!
	Comment from pbc910 » Posted Sep. 16, 2015 11:02am Thinking about yummy gametime snack food is making me hungry!!!! Don't worry about weight gals, baby needs it and 10 lbs by 26 weeks is still pretty awesome. I gained 10 lbs between appointments and was feeling pretty crappy about it but oh well...there are some women who end up gaining 60+ lbs.
	Comment from Summer0120 » Posted Sep. 16, 2015 10:26am Lol ladies!!! I'm pretty proud of my tiny 3.5 gain. With my first daughter, I was only 117 the day she was born cuz I lost 32lbs at the beginning of the pregnancy. She was premature and it was scary. With the second, I didn't start gaining at all until the third trimester. It runs in my family I think.
	Comment from MalPal85 » Posted Sep. 16, 2015 10:20am Congrats on 22 weeks! We're loving Sundays too now that football season has started. I love me some good food, haha. Pretty jealous that you have only gained 3.5lbs. I was told "you have only gained 10 lbs so far......but 5 of them were since last months appointment." Oops! Glad to hear Miss Aleena is so active. Baby Colton is pretty chill as I feel him but not a lot. Thank God for my doppler, lol.
