I had a WIC appointment today and for those of you who go to WIC you know that you go every three months will I have to go every month because of my weight so I go today and I really felt good because I have been eating like a pig since I got out of the hospital so I get on the scale and guess what I have not gained a pound but I haven't lost any either I was so sad I was about to cry right there in the offices so I said to the lady since I didn't lose do I have to come back next month and she said yes and she showed me this chart and where my weight should be and I was at the bottom of the chart and I need to gain before they start seeing me every three month I will be six month next month and I have not gain a pound not one pound so I called my husband at work and he was very calm about the whole thing he said Allison you were in the hospital last week and I was starving (really)  and before I went to the hospital I probably lost weight and now that I'm trying to eat I put back on the weight that I lost which keep my weight at the same that it was last month and I said maybe so it did make me feel a little better plus he reminded me about the ultrasound and the baby's size the baby looked great it's just me but I'm still worried my nurse told me that she only gained ten pounds with her last pregnancy and her baby was almost eight pounds and that sometimes plus size women loss weight and then only gain gain a little amount of weight but I guess I should be happy that I haven't gained a ton of weight god only puts on you what you can handle and with the sickness and back aches sleepless night he is sparing me from the weight gain my husband told weight is not really important as long as the baby is healthy maybe gaining a ton of weight is just not meant for me but I'm only half way there maybe it will happen in my last three monthsOn a better note I went a pick out a border for the baby's room it is so cute I went with a light yellow paint and a cute teddy bear boy and girl it is unsex and really cute it take six days for the border to come in and we are going to pick up the paint this weekend and maybe start painting after my prenatal visit on Saturday I realy looking foward to starting the baby's room and after that we can go a pick up the crib that I want

So glad things are going well. I like the Pooh theme but I agree with hubby no pink. Please try not to stress about the weight thing. One of these days you will go to the dr and all of a sudden you will gain 9lbs. Remember the baby takes from you so he or she will get what she needs. Hugs and prayers to you. Angelique :) PS don\'t forget some baby dust for me this month.
