No pictures in this post, sorry. I went for a check-up yesterday on Baby Will. His heart rate is 164 bpm and very strong. I was a little nervous about what the scale would show since I didn't hold back this year at Thanksgiving (I gained 3 lbs during that week alone!) I couldn't quite remember my weight at the last check-up, but I'm pretty sure that I gained 7 or 8 lbs in 1 month!

When the nurse practitioner came in to talk with me she kept saying over and over how great my weight gain was going. I was a little confused and said, "but i gained almost 8 lbs this last month, with 3 lbs of it in 1 week." This is what her response was:

"Don't worry about it at all. I saw a patient the day before Thanksgiving and then on the following Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Her weight gain in that short period of time was 18 lbs. So, you are doing well."

Needless to say, that made me feel better...

Thanks for checking in.
