I'm up 24 pounds at 30 weeks.  And the weight gain is slowing now - no gain this week.  This is totally my pattern - I imagine I will not gain too too much more - maybe 5 more pounds over all, I'd bet.  I usually end up...

Hi Everyone!    Leann - sounds like you just overdid it to me... I know the feeling.  It really sets me back if I push too hard, and I still try anyway sometimes.  I tried to run two days in a row this weekend...

Congratulations!! Your boy is totally darling.  Wow - I'm very happy for you and so glad all is well.  Yes, please keep us posted!!!
