Best of luck Tricia! Don't stress--only thing you need to do is go get that baby!
My stomach has been achy all day, and I am having either BH contractions or early labor contractions... no idea which. Probably BH. They hurt though.. not horribly ...
Mine is July 8.
Hey guys, we ended up doing the nonstress test today instead of tomorrow. Everything was fine, so no more worries! I'm off to a breastfeeding class at the hospital. Maybe I'll go into labor while there... that'd be good. :)
I do that with groceries too! The other day I was very diligent when I was putting the bags in the car to keep the cold separated from the hot so that I could just worry about the cold! I hate putting up groceries.
Have fun at the baby shower.
Hey guys--doc appt was kind of scary! Lily was doing somersaults and they first couldn't find her heartbeat. Then, her heartbeat was really slow so they hooked me up to the monitor where it records the heartbeat on paper for a while. Her heartbeat...

- About Me:
- I am a 28 year old art teacher who has been battling weight loss for 10 years...and losing (not in the good way). This site has helped me regain and maintain my motivation. I am inspired daily by these wonderful BTL members who are fighting to be healthy each day. Join me as I figure out what is holding me back from living the life I deserve.
I found out on October 30, 2008 that I am pregnant! I am super excited. I'm due July 8, 2009. Right now, I am now focusing on eating as healthfully as possible, not gaining a lot of weight, and drinking a lot of water. I just started counting calories (but not restricting) again to get in the swing of things before my baby girl is born.

Trying to get back in the habit
So counting calories has been a failure so far. I keep forgetting. I think it was because Sunday and Monday I did nothing all day so it was easy to keep track, but Tuesday and Wednesday were very very busy plus I ate with friends once each day and ate out with the other meals too since I was out and about. I shouldn't have any trouble starting Sunday. The next few days will be super busy because family will be in town and my baby shower is Saturday! It'll be fun.

I'm baaaack!!
Hey!
I'm back! Gonna soon visit my pal's pages (I hope you are all still here!!) and catch up and say hi, but I thought I'd give you guys an update on my life.
School is out for summer! It has been a crazy hectic last few months with the full-time teaching and the part-time teaching night job plus being pregnant on top of that and trying to find time to spend with my friends, etc. I'm sorry I have to leave you guys, but I am happy to be back.
I told myself for months that whenever school was… Continue

It's a girl!
Hey guys, I found out Monday I am having a girl. Her name is Lily, and she's gonna be cute...
I'm sorry I haven't been on here. I just have so much going on these days, and especially now that we can start prepping the baby's room and stuff. I probably will check in occasionally, but I don't see my activity on here changing much. I'm just swamped with the two jobs and other commitments. Sorry. :(
I'll be back full force after the baby's born though to continue my weight loss! If anyone wants t… Continue

checking in
Hi guys, Sorry I have been inactive. I've been really busy, and I haven't felt like I haven't had much to say lately!
Here's a recap.
1. My belly is sticking out. I hate all the pictures we have taken so far, but I'll post one anyways. I hate how I look in pictures so it upsets me that my belly pictures, which I am supposed to love and remember, make me unhappy. I wish my husband would have told me my sweater was all jacked up when he was taking the pictures!!

TIme to reign this in.
Okay, I had a 2 lb gain this week. I need to reign in my eating, stat. I'm trying to maintain and don't need to be gaining this much in a week. So, I'm gonna start writing down what I eat. I'll try to post it, but I may just write it on paper because of time. I've been eating too much fat and sodium. I have had too much soda lately too.
Blah.
Blah.

- I know... it has been so nice to be pregnant together. I like that you are a few steps ahead of me... I have learned so much through you :~)
It'll be fun to be in mommy and losing mode together too! I plan to count calories, so we can do that together.

- I'm so glad you're back. WE SURVIVED OUR FIRST YEAR OF TEACHING!!! I have graduated (although not officially since I still have to defend my Master's thesis first), I got a puppy (I LOVE HER!) and I'm looking forward to a relaxing summer before I start a new teaching job in another town. I bet you can't wait for Lily to be here!
