Looking for PREGNANT MFP friends!

Hey y'all! I've been on MFP for about five months now- maintaining my weight (I am 5'7" and was maintaining at 124) - exercising like a crazy lady, and just basically wanted to be accountable for the quality of food I was eating! I'm 26 years old and have two kids - a 7 year old daughter and 2 year old son. We just found out we are pregnant with baby #3 and are THRILLED!! (Although a little nervous after going through a miscarriage last year).

I have a great group of friends on MFP that I love, but am looking for some new friends who are ALSO pregnant and plan on logging consistently and trying to stay healthy while pregnant! I follow an 80/20 rule when I'm not pregnant, and plan on doing the same throughout this pregnancy. (80% of my foods are "good/healthy", the other 20% I allow for treats/snacks/deserts. This has worked for me FOREVER and hopefully I should be able to keep my cravings in check by doing this same thing while pregnant!)

I'm hoping there are some others out there wanting to make "pregnant" friends! xox

    I understand completely! We just experienced a miscarriage but are hoping to be pregnant again real soon. So I'll be your pregnant friend then :)
