Hey ladies! My name is Jennifer, and I am joining this group way late in my pregnancy (due date is April 29th). But I never considered there may be a support group to join... I blame preggo brain . I have a 4 year old girl who's due date was also April 29th ( she was born on the 25th). I have a wonderful supportive husband who is also an April baby (the 28th), and am just really excited to see when this new baby girl will bless us with her presence ! I have been tracking my calories for only the last couple of weeks, but it seems to be helping. I was 215 when I got preggers and am now 242. I don't go by "recommended weight gain" because every body is different as is every pregnancy. I do eat to feel SATISFIED and having to track myself means I don't eat mindlessly. I did that all through my first pregnancy and gained 60 pounds. It was also the thought "I can eat this cuz I'm eating for two..." I do plan to have more kids (maybe a boy to shake things up lol) so I will keep in touch with this group . Hope that we can help and support each other in our wonderous and miraculous journeys!!!
