Swelling!!


Yesterday I went to see the doctor and I had to weigh in. The first half of the pregnancy the doctor was worried I wasn't gaining enough weight. At the last appointment I gained 4 lbs over the holidays to total 30 lbs in 36 weeks. Well... in seven days since my last appointment I gained 9 lbs! The doctor said it was most likely from the crazy swelling in my legs and feet, but seriously... 9 lbs in 7 days... CRAZY!

I hate to say it but welcome to the world of bedrest!

on a much more positive note, that weight comes off really fast!

Bummer about the bed rest - but I'm sure you'll miss such opportunities after she's here! And after looking at your last prego photo, can I just say that you have the most perfect pregnant profile I have ever seen?! Seriously.

Since I gained 45 pounds with Brian, 55 pounds with Lisa and 65 pounds with Mark, I won't say one word about your weight gain, I think you are doing fantastic and I still say you are be best Pregnant Lady I've ever seen!

Oh my gosh Kelly, I'm so sorry to hear that you are on bed rest now. I hope things are ok. I bet you can't wait to have the baby now. We are so excited for you! Everyone tells me the crap you go through is totally worth it once the baby comes. Do you guys have names picked out?
