I might have gotten a little out of control

I have been blessed with not being sick the 2 pregnancies that I have had
The only thing that makes me sick is if I go without eating for more than a couple of hours
and this time around if I don't eat enough protein I feel sick all day long
This baby sure likes the food!
This can be a blessing but also a curse.
I did so well the first month or so with my eating so that I wouldn't put on any unneeded weight
and then I went from wanting hot and salty to sweet all the time
and the problems started
I love sweets but I limit myself on them for obvious reasons
Well for the past month or so I have been eating sweets and dessert pretty much every day!
I knew I should be doing better but in my head I thought I am pregnant....what the heck!
I also knew I had put on weight and I shouldn't have but I was okay


Then I went to the doctor this week
and my suspicions of how much weight I had gained was confirmed
and I was so mad at myself
I am okay with gaining weight but I know it was under my control at this time
and it just ticks me off I got out of control
So last night I threw away all of the cookies and junk food in my house
because pretending like it wasn't there was not working for my pregnant brain
and I am limiting my sweets intake once again!

Plus I have been feeling pretty crappy with all the junk I have been eating
and it has not helped my rather low energy levels
So here is to turning over a new leaf
and back to lots and lots of fruit every day for me!
And probably hot sauce because the stuff is so dang delicious!
This child is going to come out fire breathing!

P.S. I got to see my little baby again at my doctor's appointment. 
Portable ultrasound machine...best invention ever!
Next appointment we get to find out what the little booger is!
I can't wait!
Any guesses?

LOL... I'm sorry you gained some weight, but if it's any consolation, I can't even tell you've gained any! :)

You have to say what the heart rate is so I can guess! I always go by how fast the heart beat is before I will even try to guess.
