Half Way there...

Well...we are half way there 20 weeks to go till we meet this bundle of joy :) The first half went quite fast and I have a feeling the next half is gonna go even faster. There is soo much to do in preparation for the arrival that I have no idea where to begin! It was easier planning a wedding, moving and changing jobs.

What has been interesting the past few days when I have been around others, is how people are so fine in making comments about my weight gain. The fact is I am supposed to gain weight and as scary as it sounds the average woman gains 25-30 or more pounds during their pregnancy. But what makes me tingle is how people assume they can share with you how you are fat. Hello! People I look in the mirror too- I know I have gained weight and guess what so much of it is uncontrollable because of the body shape and size as well as water retention. But why do they feel they need to comment about it. For example, someone told me you have gained weight...and I thought oh they must not know I am pregnant. Then the next sentence was how is everything with the baby! Made me speechless for second. The bottom line is I just want to be as healthy as I can for the baby growing inside of me. That is going to mean I am going to gain weight. So if I can just let the world know don't comment on pregnant woman's body unless you are asked to do so! One thing I know for sure no matter what shape or size a pregnant woman is they are beautiful because of the miracle they have inside of them :)
