Weight Loss

I have really been trying to lose the pregnancy weight, and I guess most would say I have had great success, but it is not the success I thought I would have.

At the end of my pregnancy, I was only 5 lbs. heavier than before I got pregnant. Yesterday, I weighed myself on the wii fit and weighed in at 21.5 lbs. less than when I got pregnant. However, today, I weighed again and I am up to 6 lbs.. Is that even possible?

I am thinking that because I weighed myself first thing in the AM today, the baby had not eaten very much and maybe because I was full to capacity of milk, I weighed more???? Yikes I hope so!

I have lost all patience..

Not that I have many to begin with... I am half Italian. I know she is not due for another week, but I have already tried doing all of those "Labor Inducing" tricks. We walk like crazy with the boys, eat eggplant, zucchini, even labor cookies. I have had spicy Mexican food and spicy salsa. Nothing.

We are just so ready for our outside baby girl. My belly is ginourmous, I can no longer sleep, I have LOST my appetite and I cant really take it much longer. If this baby is late, she is in so much trouble!

Traveling Baby

At 26 weeks, the baby can still change positions very easily. At our last appointment, she was head down, face down. Perfect position for birth.

Last night, I had my first taste of how it will be when the baby drops. She was really low in my pelvis all afternoon. After dinner, I went to get off of the couch and almost could not walk. It was like my legs had been dislocated because of the shape my pelvis was in.

So to you ladies who have gone through this, how the heck do you deal with that awkward pain? I do not think I would get off the couch if there is nothing to do for the discomfort. I will put myself on bedrest :P
