So the big fat stomach did not start making an appearance until about 22 weeks. Then it was all downhill from there. That's when I had to start disclosing my condition to the managers at work. I got everything from congratulations to surprise to "I thought maybe you had just stopped working out". The philipino lady at work keeps telling me it has gone to my hips, and I am not quite sure whether that's a compliment or not.
1) No stretch marks!! Let's keep it that way, Pat!!
2) Gaining 9lbs in a single month. Seriously...who does that?!!
3) Being the only pregnant person in both my step class and my Body Pump class. Even with the 20 lbs attached to my stomach I still have more coordination and am stronger than most of the wussies at the gym.
