A new nurse today, but she was good as well. Must have just been the one nurse the other day. Icing my bum now, which thus far has worked to keep the swelling down in previous weeks. We'll see how side effects go this week. It seems I am adjusting to them slowly but surely.
The big news though is I have lost 6 lbs of weight this week alone, which now puts me at 16 lbs below my pre-pregnancy weight. I am finding this more and more disconcerting. I actually requested to get on the scale today, which as any woman knows, that just doesn't happen. Since the OB last week was not worried about my weight loss I am going to see if I can get into the Peri again I think. 10 lbs was one thing, when it was 13 I started to worry a bit, but now at 16 lbs, 6 of which are in the past 7 days? Yeah I am worrying a bit to say the least.

21 weeks...
Okay, this last week has been by FAR the longest week yet. It crawled by. However, the good news is, I am feeling her move much more. So much that she even wakes me up at night. I am quite happy with that!
I think I look smaller this week, but I am going to attribute that to the fact that I am losing weight left and right. I went from 10 lbs below my pre-pregnancy weight last Monday to 13 lbs below it on Thursday. The GD diet is to blame for the initial loss, but I think stress is playing a bigger role in the more recent loss. Even my face looks thinner to me. Of course the OB isn't worried about it at this point, she says that from 20 weeks on I should be gaining weight now. But I just don't see it happening. As long is Bella baby is growing as she should I am fine with the weight loss, even happy about it, and so far it looks like she's right on target.
As a side note, I am at about the point where I need to go but *smaller* maternity clothes. These ones, that fit fine before, are baggy and my pants fall down. >.<
