Both yesterday and today I've been Super Puff Lady. I have water retention that is amazing and despite what some of you maybe thinkig -- I drink water like it's going out of style. Mostly because I'm actually thirsty for it -- but also because it's good for me and the baby. I have NO IDEA what has set off this water retention. The books say it could be due to hormonal changes -- what's NOT due to hormonal changes at this point? Whatever the case -- it's early in my pregnancy for crazy water retention I thought. So here I sit drinking MORE water and propping up my legs. I'm going to have to move to flip flops soon if this doesn't slow down.
Dear Baby,
Stop making me bigger than I need to be.
Love,
Mom

Hi,
I'm Keelee's friend and I read your blog, mostly because I'm preggers too and I get a kick out of your posts! Anyway, I am just starting the water retention, too, at almost 25 weeeks. When I was pg with my first it was closer to 19 weeks. My theory is the weather warming up. I'm on bedrest 6 hours a day and I'm still puffy. It stinks, but the good news is after baby comes that water weight flies off in DAYS! Good luck! :)
OH my GOD! Even after bedrest you're still puffy! Ugh. Today I got a puff attack again. =(
