Let's talk about weight, shall we?

It seriously worries me that I'm not gaining weight. I realize this is an irrational thing to worry about. The doctor told me less than a week ago that all was well with our little one, but I'm worried nonetheless. The belly is growing, so I'm sure baby is growing.

Baby Reeder should be the size of an onion this week, weighing in at a whopping 5.9 oz. Plus, according to my husband, I have roughly half a pound of amniotic fluid now (yes, husband, I looked it up. 15.35 fluid oz = 1 lb, so it is roughly half a pound!) So really, when you take both the weight of the baby and this, it almost equals the 1 lb I've gained. That can't be enough, right?

I promise I'm eating. Just ask my husband. Though it doesn't help that I've had trouble keeping some of it down the last few days (I guess I overdid it this weekend...) It's hard to imagine gaining 1 lb a week, as I should be right now, but somehow I'll get there I suppose.
