GRAPEFRUIT INDEED
I've lost six pounds since I found out I was pregnant. I haven't had much appetite, and for years I've been accustomed to eating big meals with my husband. But I can't figure out where the six pounds has been lost from...
Normally if I stand sideways in the mirror, I can suck my tummy in and look pretty skinny. But since my uterus is now supposedly the size of a grapefruit, my gut simply doesn't suck in anymore.
I just made myself dizzy and nearly passed out trying to suck my tummy in. Heh.
I guess I can kinda start to notice that I'm pregnant.

It's contagious, Tim! The Internet has unexpected side effects. Call the CDC!

My first trimester, I felt fat and ungainly. I told my sister-in-law (who has had four children) that I already felt like a house. She laughed and said that if I felt like a house in the first trimester, I'd feel like a whole city by the third.
I actually felt cute and round by the end of the second trimester, and a little weebly during the third. When I had to go on the gestational diabetes diet, I lost five pounds, even while Pie was growing. I didn't feel like a city: I felt like a bubble.
An early word of warning (because YOU WILL MAKE IT THERE): Don't eat too much at Thanksgiving. I'm serious. Don't even fill your plate. I just took a little of everything, had one plate of food and some dessert, and -- I am not kidding -- my belly grew a whole size. There just isn't room in the tummy when Baby is that big.
