Hello, i know this is a stupid question but i am worried about eating to much sugar so i have not been eating to much snacks but i had ice cream today and i feel soo guilty. I am afraid that i have had to much sugar now and that it will harm my baby. Do you think i am just being a worry bug?

Yes, you are worrying too much! As long as you eat a mostly healthy and balanced diet (grains, protein, veggies, fruit, dairy) if you indulge in a daily treat you will not harm yourself or your baby.

In any event, the "harm" will not be to your baby.... it will be the extra pounds you will have to lose once you have the baby. Your baby will be fine.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
