    You look really good and congrats on you pregnancy. When I got pregnant for the first time I thought it was a permission slip to eat whatever I wanted no matter what and sleep and sit on my rear. I gained about 50 pds with my first....needless to say, I had a 6pd 9oz baby so I had about 30 pds to lose. Boy that was not easy!! Anyway, on my third pregnancy I actually really watched what I ate and really made an effort to only give my body nutricious foods and I only gained about 20 pds. I wasn't really excercising and my dr. said I was just all belly....lol...keep up the good work and I know will not deprive yourself or your baby but will eat healthy for the both of you!! Labor is easier when you are fit ;)

    If anyone can do it you can! You have done an amazing job getting healthy. You are my inspiration when I feel like giving up! So glad your my FP friend :smile:

    Sorry you are feeling so sick, I was the same with both of my babies off and on the whole nine months, but on a bright note, they were both very healthy when they were born. I really think it was the vitamins that made me feel yucky. Those suckers were the size of my thumb, I nearly chocked to death every time I took them lol! Wishing you health throughout your journey. It is such a wonderful time and it goes by so quick! Enjoy every moment!

    Thank you both!! With the nausea and exhaustion, especially in the first trimester, it's so easy just to use that as an excuse to sit, sleep and eat, for sure. I've noticed myself falling into that trap, and have decided to do something about it! :) I'm looking forward to a fit labor and delivery, too. I had an epidural with my son, and I'm hoping to avoid that this time.

    Thank you!!! I'm SO happy to have finally conceived -- my fiance and I've been trying for over 2 years (with 2 miscarriages along the way). I intend to stay healthy so this baby is healthy, too! :)

    Thank you so much!!! I'm so happy to have you as my FP friend, too! Ohh those prenatal vitamins -- I couldn't take them with my son, they literally made me throw up every time I took one. This time, they don't seem so bad, but they are HUGE. I don't always remember to take them, so I have to get better about taking them every day, as well as stepping up the exercise routine. Thank you!! I'm savoring every moment of this experience, the pleasant and the not-so-pleasant alike!! :)
