lol I did read that I should have gained between 11 and 15 lb by now in my pregnancy, so your DH is right in a round about way. Shell explained it well that most of the weight gain is increased blood / fluid etc. Makes sense really.
My baby is supposed to be just under a foot long now and just under 1lb in weight.
I read about a baby abroad who was in a cardboard temp coffin home to be 'prepared' for the funeral and the parent found it alive and crying!! if thats the same one, then yes indeed it is shocking!!
I can't wait to be 24 weeks next - as that's the date when if baby comes early they get all the care they need - like Shell is waiting for tomorrow. I know a lady who had a little girl who was 23 weeks and nothing was done for her
She died and it was awful. She had twins a few years later at 24 weeks they did EVERYTHING for them and they both survived, one has special needs but the other twin is fine. They actually weighed less than the baby girl when she was born so it was really hard on the mum to accept that they couldn't have saved her baby girl.
Fingers x'd none of us need scbu or the 'viable' date and just march past it with no trouble.
Have been busy collecting Avon catalogues I dropped off - just started doing it. Am off to drop more later while the day is quiet! lol
As for being off Crisps.. I never normally eat them. If the world was full of crisps I'd be slim honestly! lol But ate LOADS in the first 4 motnhs of pregnancy.. like you was craving them! lol So am glad to be back to not being bothered by them! lol
Bought loads of fruit and veg earlier, am having falafals with veggies in pitta for dinner then fruit salad later.
Even avoided a bar of Choc in the supermarket today - LO had a sweet but I didn't give in! lol
