Dee - we can all be constantly grazing cows together! I have been thinking of myself more as a pig though!
Oh no, Danni - after you posted about how the gain should be around 300g per week, I got out the calculator, and I've been putting on 571g per week, so at this rate I will gain another 10kg and will be almost 20kg heavier than my pre preg weight. Nooooooo!!!!!
I've put on 7 or 8kgs since falling pregnant and I'm sure my hips, boobs, butt and belly are in for more weight gain over the next 17 or so weeks!!! haha!!!
I too, since getting my appetite back after about week13 onwards, i've been buying chocolate blocks (family size) and packets of chips etc and just can't help myself most days!! Not every day, but most days I eat something naughty!!! I didnt' feel like chocolate or potato chips in the first trimester as i was nauseous and tried to eat healthy so now i'm making it up haha .....I figure, as long as i'm eating my protein, veges, fruit, etc then why not!?!
The last week or so I have gone sugar crazy, I eat all the lollies I can get my hands on and even baked about 60 sugar cookies and iced them, I have eaten about half in the last 2 days It's totally normal!!!!
