Pregnancy...

So I haven't posted anything in awhile, and I now have posted like 5 things, so I apologize about not keeping up with my blog...I need to be better. I figure I should say a little something about my current condition (with the pregnancy that is). It is going much better. I have pretty much stopped the throwing up all the time and feeling sick. I still feel a little light-headed and I randomly throw up once, but it is so much better. My biggest problem currently is accepting the weight gain. I know that I need to gain weight for my baby, but I have been gaining a little too much weight for my liking, and my doctors' too. He had me in tears at my last appointment because I had gained too much in the last month, and in his opinion, I am eating too much take-out, ice cream, fried food, and not working out at all. I tried to explain to him that I am not eating that unhealthy (sure I have ice cream every once in awhile), and I have been trying to be more active, but he says if I were doing those things, the scale would suggest otherwise. Kind of frustrating for me having my doctor tell me I am not doing what I am supposed to be doing, even though I am. Anyway, this last month I have made even more of an attempt to eat only healthy things, and to get even more exercise. I have my appointment in a week, so we will see if it made any bit of difference. Needless to say, I have not been that impressed with my doctor, and I most likely will not be going to him for any of the future pregancies I have.

I am now 27 weeks, and can finally feel the light at the end of the tunnel. Next week will begin my 3rd and final trimester, so that is very reassuring. I want to have her so bad I can barely stand it. She is moving around all the time, and Jeff just loves holding my stomach to feel her kicks. I recently had my glucose screening test, and that came back normal, but I did find out that my iron is extremely low, so I have to take two extra iron supplements a day. I am getting more and more excited every day, and I can't wait for this pregnancy to be over so I can hold my little girl in my arms. I don't have pictures specifically of my belly, but there are plenty of me below that you can see maybe why my doctor is a little concerned.
