I completely understand. Since I have been pregnant when I have gas before I need to go #2 I will have horrible shooting pains ripping through my stomach sometimes. It is horrible. But usually within 30 minutes and trip or more to the bathroom I am better. Did yours not go away quickly? Also the talk yesterday about being up 1.5 lbs. After going to #2 yesterday I am back down to 132. Crazy how that works. Also have you been feeling your little girl moving much in there? :) 

I can feel her moving around a lot. I have only felt a "kick" once. But she rolls around a lot and I love feeling her. It's mostly in the evening and I think that's because that is when I am sitting still and can pay attention to her. For the stomach pains, it usually takes several days to go away. Mostly after I use the bathroom several times. Are you wearing any maternity clothes. At first, I just felt bigger even though I didn't look much bigger. My hips felt huge. But I honestly feel more like myself and I am 19 weeks this week. I have been getting in really great workouts (except the day that I was hurting). I am doing cardio and strength training on a schedule I made myself. I just have had to modify some of the ab work, of course. What kind of exercises do you do? 

I do a lot of holding my couch down and walking. Lol. I probably am more active then I realize considering my 2 year old is all over the place and I clean up after 7 of us. I still haven't quit feeling tired though lately. I have only gained 2 pounds so far so I can still wear all my clothes but I have wore my maternity pants a few times just because they are more comfortable. The only thing that is really getting big on me is my boobs. In 3 weeks I have went from a little girls training bra fitting fine to a B cup. I am not sure why I am not gaining weight very quickly. I just figured my body is using up the extra fat I was already carrying. Even when I feel like I have eaten a lot in a weeks time my weight doesn't go up very much. But after being 190 the last three times pregnant I am not complaining. If the doctor becomes concerned though I guess I will eat more nuts or something. I will have a better idea how it is going inside my belly when I go have my sonogram. That will make me feel better too since they will be able to tell me if the baby is gaining weight at a healthy rate. Trust me I feel really weird to look so small this far along still. I just want a healthy baby regardless of how big I get. 

I am sure the baby is great! Most people don't realize that you don't have to gain that much weight for a healthy baby! I agree that maternity ones are the most comfortable, and most people don't even know I am pregnant until I tel them. LOL But my belly is starting to stick out. I have gained 14 pounds but my goal is to not gain much more for about 7 more weeks.  

Yep my goal is to keep it under 150. We will just stick together and keep each other accountable.
