finally gaining weight!

Yaaayyy!!! My dr has been worried because of how much I have been losing, and when I got my last ultrasound my lol man was measuring a few days behind so I started to worry a little too. But I just stepped on the scale for the first time in a week and I have gained 5 pounds back! Never thought if be excited about gaining weight but thanking God today! :) Just wanted to share my excitement because my family is looking at me like I'm crazy lol

Wellll I got a u/s at 6 weeks to make sure I wasn't having another ectopic pregnancy and the heartbeat was slow so she had me come back at 8 weeks to check on it. Then I had my gender scan at 16+4 and found out I have an anterior placenta so she scheduled me to check on it on the 3rd, and when I went to the er last week they did another....I don't suggest that btw, they have to do a catheter and those are no fun!

My baby is sucking me dry lol he was 6 oz when I was 16+4! And measuring at 17 weeks...then at 18 weeks he was only measuring 17+4 so I've been a little worried since then. The dr said he was laying in a bad spot though so he might be bigger...I hope so :/ get to see him again on the 3rd!

i drink boost with protein. like one a day to try to gain some weight. but baby is prettyyyyy much on time lol. i'm not even worried about it yet. i just eat when i'm hungry until i'm satisfied. i think as long as i don't keep losing weight, then i shouldn't freak out.......yet haha baby only weight six ounces right now anyways!

Drink a milkshake every day and you will gain weight! That's not what I did but it was suggested to me. A fresh fruit one so you can still be healthy about it and make then at home!
