Pregnancy checkup
I went to the doctors yesterday to my monthly check up and found that I gained about 2kgs in a month. Christmas!! Damn it! Here I was thinking I'd done good. Anyway, I was chatting to the doctor about how much extra weight should I look at putting on. The doctor believes I should aim to be approx 10kgs heavier than I was when I had my first weigh in. Sounds fair I suppose since I'm overweight to begin with and I have a strong feeling I'd gained a bit before my first antinatal check at 3mos. So that is my goal and I think it might be achievable. I'm in my second trimester (I'm actually 17wks on Friday). Further than I thought, since I wasn't really counting.
I have a distinct belly, that is for sure, and for a while now I could feel the baby move. Andrew had his first feel, although it was really light - I doubt he'll get a solid kick until about the 6th month. On the 29th Jan, I'm going for my 18wk scan. Yes, I'm going to find out the sex. I believe in getting my half-time prize! :p

Happy 17 weeks! I'm so jealous that you can feel your wee one moving already!
Do you have a feel for what gender the baby will be?
2kgs isn't too bad, Jodie! When I was pregnant with my daughter I put on 20+kgs. Ouch!
I think it's going to be a boy. What about you Aimee?
Y- Good to know I wasnt the only one when I had my daughter! lol
Though I'd like a girl I think it's a boy.
Don't beat yourself up, being pregnant means you gain weight. It's the only time we're allowed, right? LOL
Can't wait to hear what you're having!
Congrats on the bellt flutters. This was the part I liked.
Good job on Amanda's site!! I need to sell something big so I can afford to have you do mine!
Hey Jodie! Welcome back. Good to hear that the pregnancy is all going well.
And yes, Amanda's site looks fantastic!
Hi Jodie! I've been MIA from divas a while and didn't realize you were having another baby! Congratulations!!
ROFL @ half-time prize - I love that! I'll have to remember it for later! Hehe ^_^
