So, I'm pregnant! Yeah! After our miscarriage in May, I am happy to report that I about 14 weeks and things are looking good, despite some early bumps in the road. I'm super excited.
You know what's great about being pregnant? Eating! I am super lucky to not really get sick while I'm pregnant and truth be told I use being pregnant as a sort of free pass to eat without guilt. Oh I know you're not supposed to, but really, this is my last kid and I'm going out with a bang.
When I was pregnant with Collin, my husband was super supportive of my need to eat. He gained about 20 pounds while I put on my 50 and all was well with the world. Here's a shot of myself dangerously close to morbid obesity if I wasn't carrying a child:
But this time???!! Oh no, he's on a get in shape kick. He's eating better, he's exercising multiple times a week and I have to say I'm jealous, even a bit perturbed!
I mean really, can't he wait another six months and then we can both be on the get in shape bandwagon? It is truly no fun to be gaining at least a pound a week while your husband is losing it. Sheesh!
So, while I usually love my hubby, this whole working out thing needs to take a six month hiatus. Ok, I gotta go eat a piece of cake now. I've worked up an appetite typing this.
HA! Yes! My hubby started really working out last August, I was in my LAST trimester and got my biggest as he was getting smaller. Then this whole year he has only UPPED his workout regime and has lost weight and totally and utterly toned up and is cut and everything. I just had a baby in Nov, then all year i'm trying to lose weight to no avail and he is literally wasting away as I stay chubby. NO FAIR!! He also has the pleasure of not getting interrupted while he exercises, but still, its hard cuz now I'm the chubby one. I'm not even pregnant anymore so that can't be MY excuse.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your last pregnancy!! anyone who says they only ate carrots and salad while their baby was in their body is lying. Enjoy your cake, enjoy your hubby's new hot bod. But i do get it. I get jealous too, but I don't want to start another year wishing i was in shape, hopefully by 2011 i'll be good and I can have a great year, just like my hubby has. :)
