The ONLY thing I DEFINITELY have no issue doing is gaining weight! I found this stupid chart on some pregnancy web site when I was early pregnant and I obviously LOVED it for the first 18 weeks or pregnancy. I now have a love/hate relationship! :)
I do have one thing I'm OOBER excited about coming up:
Babymoon 2011 coming up NEXT weekend! Mimi and Papa are coming up from south Georgia to watch our little man while Chris and I have a relaxing weekend at his boss' cabin near Helen. I don't really plan on doing the whole "tour Helen" thing in mid-August weather... but I think a few short hikes, some nice "out to eat" dinners and a 2 mornings of sleeping in as long as I want are definitely in store! OH - and I've already booked our COUPLES MASSAGE at a spa near the cabin that Chris' boss has been going to for years! I don't think Chris has ever had a massage - and I haven't had one since I was about 8 months pregnant with Parker - so I'm SO due!
Life is going to change for the Hull household very soon... I CAN (yes - can) wait! I want this baby to stay in me for much longer than 10 weeks. I feel great. I love feeling the baby move. I love being pregnant. SO different from my last pregnancy! We'll see! :)

I share the love/hate relationship with this very weight chart. It started out as a love that has slowly progressed to a hate. But we're both exercising and eating well, so that's what matters :)
Hill- I'm pretty much following YOUR exact chart!! I say we just ditch the guidelines and make our own. There is absolutely no reason a silly chart should make a prego lady feel bad about herself! =o)
whoa! that chart is totally bunk! 30 lbs for a 40 week pregnancy?! i really doubt that is on the high end. i gained 50 lbs. with sibby and tate didnt bat an eye! ask him about the charts, pretty sure he isnt a fan! dont worry hill....you are healthy and you look wonderful!
I used this chart for both of my pregnancies. I found it most helpful in the beginning when the Dr visits are 4 weeks apart and I didn't look pregnant yet. And also in the middle when I really started to gain some weight I could look at that chart and be like okay don't panic gaining X pounds in 2 weeks is normal for this stage... Of course I lost so much during our move this time that I'm not on the chart either....
