I started the first pregnancy weighing 20 pounds too much, and then just packed on. After giving birth I was 6 pounds above my before pregnancy weight and when my son was a year old I had managed to pack on even more. And I have given my old (very cheap) maternity clothes to a relative whom they fit though she weighs about 20 pounds more than I did at that time.<BR/><BR/>The only thing I liked about being pregnant was feeling the baby inside of me. I hated everything else.<BR/><BR/>But there are good news too: since my son turned three I have lost about 25 pounds again. So your husband is right. Don't worry about your weight now.

I will however, be unable to bring along any donuts. The best I could have done was cookies but the Husband was greedy and decided he really had to bring all but two to the work potluck today.

Still, maybe we can just dump cream in our tea. :)bren j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09132628402113226709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31817632.post-72705067755965669112007-09-12T08:25:00.000-04:002007-09-12T08:25:00.000-04:00oh god! remember that feeling of being so HUGE. ...oh god! remember that feeling of being so HUGE.

It sucks, honey.
