Getting Bigger on my 7th Month!

The Little Princess - Now I'm beginning to doubt if she really is a girl! Her kicks are really different from Alex's before (of course every baby is different as people would say). Her kicks are harder and bolder. I can even guess that it was her foot or knee. She moves like crazy every dawn. I bet when she comes out, she will also be awake in the wee hours of the morning! LOL! I'm not complaining about her kicks and movements. Actually, I'm happy that she is getting stronger everyday! Baby's weight is also normal according to my last checkup two weeks ago.

My Food and Weight - You won't believe how much weight I gained from last month! 12 lbs! Yes, you read it right! I gained 12 lbs in 4 weeks. Bad, bad, bad. But the good news is that my OB said it was me who got bigger and not the baby. I can actually feel the weight in my legs. Hubby even agreed that they got bigger. Aarrgh. My only consolation is that at least I can still move around and that I don't have to wear a maternity belt since my body can manage the weight of my tummy. No more food cravings for this month. I've been pretty successful in eating half rice per meal and been sticking to that diet ever since. Except for parties though wherein I tend to eat more. I've been eating a lot of cakes too since it was my birthday and my Mom's, but thankfully my blood sugar is still normal (so far!).

How do I look now!? - I feel happy with the way I look now. It's like I'm taking progesterone pills but I'm not of course! :) No more pimples and acne so far and my face is now clear. I just hope they won't go back in the next few months. Although I don't like how big I am now but I'm just thinking that this is all for the baby. :)

How is Ate Alex coping up? - Alex is growing up so fast! Now I can say that she will become a wonderful Ate! When her baby cousin was in the house last weekend she was so hospitable, she made her sit in her high chair and then tried to put on the belt. She also tries to talk to the baby inside my tummy and when she felt that it moved, she laughed so hard! LOL!

Two more months and then we will finally meet our little Princess. There are so many things to do in two months. We need to prepare the baby's room, clean it up, setup the bed, wash baby's clothes, and the list goes on and on! But I'm getting excited on the big day. :)
