I had noticed that ever since my stay at the hospital my weight dropped a couple of pounds. When I went to the Dr. this past week they also noted the loss and wanted to verify that I had been eating enough. I feel like all I do is eat! I eat three regular meals, and I also snack quite a bit in between. I certainly NEVER feel hungry!
I attribute some of the weight loss to the Nifedipine that I was on. I probably didn't eat quite as much while taking that medication because everything I swallowed was so painful. I also think that now with me drinking over a gallon of water a day I may also be flushing all the junk out of my body, and in turn losing some weight through that.
Either way...I am happy to announce....that today I got on the scale and I saw a new number! It is two pounds over where I had previously been at my heaviest. Oh so good to see! I just want to be sure that these boys are growing and getting all the nutrients that they need. I think it's working!
And now, time for a peanut butter cookie.

Great job Beth! Who knows what is physiologically going on with everything now, but God surely does and He is going to nourish those little fellows with all the goodies they need using their sweet little mama as the vessel. So you go girl and eat that cookie:)
Love, Mom H.
congrats on your two pound gain Bether. Have fun eating those cookies. I will celebrate for you and eat a few of them also. It's just a matter of weeks now my Girl!
At church this morning many were standing to give thanks for different thing--I guess you know what your mother gave thanks for today! God Bless you all and we will be seeing you soon now
Love DAD
Yes, and do you think I could acknowlege God's grace without a teary face and quivering voice? OH NO! I am just about as emotional as a hormonal pregnant mama!!
Love you little one. Love that precious father of your little ones too.

So lucky! Not even most pregnant women get to celebrate their weight gain at the very end. Almost always at the end it starts to get a little depressing. You, however, get to enjoy each new number and strive for more! And do it all knowing you are doing what you are supposed to do for those boys! Its a tough job.... eating those cookies day in and day out... but you are just going to have to take one (or two or three) for the team!
Miss ya!
