18 week appointment :)

edited April 2011 in Pregnant
Due on September 20th

Had my 18 wk Appt...don't know what I'm having yet (will find out in about a week) but the little booger was moving all around And kicking the heart doppler while we were trying to listen to the heart beat! :)

Was told I need to gain more weight and eat more...in the Drs words "even if that means you grab a milk shake after work!"

Hmmmmmm Drs orders! :p

Anyone else been told to gain weight?!
