And boy did I weigh in...
I had a doctor's appointment yesterday for my 37 week check up, and I almost started crying at least 3 times before I actually made it into the docotor's office. So there was that...
I think it was a combination of a million different things...
Thing 1 - hormones
Thing 2 - my boo couldn't come with me because he's still battling the shingles (it's almost cleared up), and this is the first appointment he's missed.
Thing 3- They were checking to see if I was progressing toward delivery, and I honestly am soooo not ready for that part
Thing 4 - I had gained 8 POUNDS! HOLY CRAP... Oh, in two weeks btdubs
The doctor walked in...took one look at my gigantic feet (it looks like I have that elephantitis thing that you see specials about on TLC) and said, "Well, no wonder you're weight is up." I was kind of relieved because that meant I wasn't about to get yelled at. I know I haven't been eating perfectly, but I certainly haven't been eating enough to justify an 8 pound weight gain.
Good news is that baby isn't even close to being ready to come out. I didn't get yelled at, and boo gets to come to the doctor with me next week.
Like I said, I've been eating pretty well.
Peanut butter and banana toast for breakfast
Chicken bites with new potatoes and squash for lunch
I actually tried something new for dinner last night! It was pretty good. My mom saw the Southern Plate blog on Pinterest, and said some of her recipes looked good. I tried the Hobo Sacks, and they were delicious! I served them with green beans and brown gravy. Yum!
I used lean beef for mine. I will add some type of sauce before I cook them next time. They were pretty good...and no mess!
Hi, stopping by from She's a Big Star! Congrats on the baby! Girl I gained a ton of weight w/ all my boys. I'm so wishing I had paid more attention to my weight because I wouldn't be in the situation I'm in now!!! I'm gonna have to check out Southern Plate, that looks so yummy!!!
