Healthy Boy !!!!!! So very exciting. He was not shy at all . I had a feeling all along it was a boy . My only doubt was about the heartbeat but that just goes to show that its an old wives tale . My dd was 160's , ds was 140's- 150's and this one was 160's and today it was 150 !!!! He weighs 13 oz which is good for 20 w. Measured 20w 3d. So hes growing on schedule , in which i was worried cuz of the not being able to eat much . Btw how much could you all eat at a time during pregnancy ? I can eat 2 scrambled eggs and half of an english muffin , or 1 /3 cup oatmeal , or a whole turkey burger w/ 1 slice whole wheat toast . Seems like more than the norm for me but no sure?

Congrats on the little boy. Do you have a name yet? Can't tell you anything about the eating because I've never been pregnant but hope to be next year.

Congrats on the baby boy....As you probably know I also had a healthy baby boy 3 months ago!

As far as the eating goes, I was able to eat more right around the 20 week mark all of a sudden my appetite picked up as I was so worried I wasn't eating much. You sound like your doing fine. When I was around 20-30 weeks I was able to eat 2 scrambled eggs, or one kid size hamburger. So sounds to me like your doing fine. Make healthy choices and I am sure you are going to do fine!
BTW- I gained around 30-35lbs my whole pregnancy and lost every bit of it by the time he was 6 weeks old so I wouldn't worry much about your weight gain either..Try not to stress and enjoy your pregnancy!

Congrats on the new man in your life. Everyone is different when it comes to the eating. I started to eat about 6 small meals toward the end of my 2nd trimester. It helps out during pregnancy but it is a hard habit to break out of post-pregnancy.

Congrats!!! That's awesome!!! I'm sure you'll be fine. I can eat quite a bit now, and I'm not even pregnant! Enjoy that food! You are eating for 2!! You will have plenty of time to get any extra weight off after that beautiful baby boy is born!!!

Congratulations! I love the name very strong sounding. Our bodies never cease to amaze me. Somehow no matter what they are able to alter and change as we need them for. Enjoy your pregnancy!
