For the record, Ransom’s pregnancy for me was just not a lot of fun… weight gain was off the charts and everywhere, my skin was in bad shape, and I just wanted carbs and sweets all the time. With Avery, it was completely opposite–I had an incredibly easy pregnancy, had radiant skin, ate amazingly delicious foods, only gained baby and fluid weight then dropped it ALL the week after she was born. This time around, it’s back to the beginnings…I have to be so careful to work out and stay on top of my food intake (which I often just kind of stink at because, well, sweets are delicious) I suppose if I have a boy, I will have a set pattern, just not a very favorable one…
