How many 125g of flakes do you go through? They seem so small and how much do you take?
Lola every one of those 28lbs will be worth it when you hear blue! I've been surprised that my weight hasn't gone up much (about 5lbs) given how much cardio I cut out. But I also cut out about 600+ calories a day and a ton of processed sugar. I'm still hitting around 2400 cals a day though so I think my intake is high enough for the TW magic :-)
Aqua you're so sweet :-) My DD2 is so crazy active! It cracks me up how different my girls are; I am sure lots of the other moms with multiple ladies can say the same. DD1 just never was the type to do anything remotely "wrong"... never opened cabinets up or drew on walls or salted the dog, thank goodness. DD2 has a new adventure planned for herself everyday. And I never know what it will be. But I did put all our shakers of seasoning well out of her reach in this house! I'm glad you found a new job so quickly and how great to be able to carpool! Do they know yet that you're pg? I suppose not since you've just crossed out of 1st tri... do you think they will take it OK?
Spicy that research study will be great! U/S are the greatest thing ever when you're pg, how fun that you'll get to see the baby so much. Now you just need to get pg! When is your attempt?
Boyjoy I am so sorry to hear you have m/s. That is just rotten stuff. Had it with 1 dd but not with the other. FX yours passes soon!
Spicy my jar has 17 servings, 2 "heaping" TBS each it says. I usually only manage 1TBS a day right now. Going to try dumping some in tomato soup for lunch today though!Quote:

Begonia, thanks for good wishes!
Our DDs are like identical twins :D DD1 is like a grown up, always calm, nice, well organized, predictible, helpful, smart she started to read when she turned 4 just by watching super y and electric company :) DD2 is highly active, stubborn, messy, wall decorator (crayons), i think DD1 was extremely good and DD2 is just an ordinary kid :D
Have to say, I had terrible M/S with DD1 i don t even wanna remember, but very easy baby and child, DD2 was easy pregnancy but hard baby and kid .. As far as i am having hard time with this baby i am hoping this is gonna be an easy baby :D
That's the best first step! Gotta eat some brekkie. I used to HATE it, but now I sit down and eat with my girls before school, and it's good fam time for us.Quote:

No wonder I have girls and hulked up like a hippo when I started eating a full breakfast and meat and taters all day.
Yeah, that bfast is pretty important. Begonia, I did not gain much either. May be 8 pounds. It sways boy if you are gaining weight towards O. I have not informed my new employer yet abt the pregnancy. May be after 3-4 weeks when its really obvious. Yeah, they will be ok. Its a big place and I am fine with not working after having the baby for 8-10 months.
You guys are cracking me up about the DDs....I think it is some birth order thing with daughters....my DD1 is SUPER organized, she calls me out some times. And my DD2 is a spicy meatball, that girl. I think #2 has to vie for attention so they just figure what the hell and go all out.
Aqua, I was totally thinking about the job thing with you a while ago.....a GREAT new job opened up in my town that I so want....did you tell them you were pg when you interviewed? Hope it is going well!!! So nice that you can carpool...that is the one thing I love about mine, as DH and I are in the same building.
My DD's are opposite. My oldest is all about being the center of attention. Very full of attitude and craziness. DD2 is very calm and all about going with the flow.
Boyjoy we are pregnancy/DD TWINS! I would say the exact same re: the m/s and DD1, and the easy pg with DD2, my current wild child. Part of the reason I want a 3rd is it really is just so fun to see what the little people turn out like! I can see why people have lots of kids. But I know for sure that 3 is my limit :-) Well, actually ... I could see 4 (twin boys please!) but DH is definitely going to be done at #3.
Aqua that is so great that you are in a good environment! I remember DD1 I got pg the month after I started a new job that I had wanted for years. She was unplanned and I was so bummed about being pg, but luckily my boss was beyond thrilled when I told her the news and it really helped me out emotionally. I'm glad to hear you didn't gain much either; it kind of concerns me b/c I know the gain is supposed to help. I think the month or two before we TTC I might just stuff my face like crazy with some good sat fats! Avocado and bacon sandwiches all day!
Lola I can't believe you were on 800 cals a day! That is intense! So are you applying for the new job? And I think your point re: the 2nd DD's working to get attention is totally valid. DD2 is a very hard worker ;-)
Mmsgirlie I was never much of b'fast eater either until boy swaying but now I must eat first thing in the am; it really is funny how my body has gotten used to eating by 7am now. I wake up starving. I like it :-)
