Linda! Grrrrr! he had no right to make that comment & I am appaled at his lack of proffesionalism to do so.

I had all these ideas about what weight I would put on & when (after all the reading I had done telling me that 12-14 kilo's was average) & I am here to say that only in the past few weeks have i actually been able to let it go.... THANK GOD!

I am 30/31 weeks & I have put on 15 kilo's. I was small to begin with & aside from a few treats here & there I have eaten extremely well.

Nobody on this planet shares your particular genetic make-up or that of your developing baby. Let these expectations & fears fall away & concentrate on doing the right thing.... lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, salad etc. Go for healthy nutritious meals & give yourself that little treat... you deserve it. Get through this by nurturing your mind as well as your body & give yourself a hug.

Relax... you are doing fine! Other people's expectations & opinions are just that... theirs!

You know right from wrong so go with that
