22 weeks 3 days

So I found out that I start a new week on Mondays, not Tuesdays.  But it's not that big of a deal.  I feel like this last week went realllly slow.  I had a checkup a few days ago. Penelope's heartbeat is in the 140-150 range.  We met a new midwife and intern and they were great.  At our next appointment we meet the last one.  There are 3 total and one of them is always on call, so we don't know who will deliver the baby.  Whoever is on call that night. 

So at the checkup, I was weighed and it shocked me.  I gained 10 pounds in one month!  I know my belly had grown a lot in the last month, but still... I honestly can't believe I've gained 22 pounds since I got pregnant.  I'm not gaining weight in my face at all.  If I put my arms over my head, I can still see my ribs, backbone and hip bones.  So where is all this weight going?  I know I've gained some in my legs, but not ten pounds a leg.  So I guess I need to just start being more careful if I don't want to gain a whole bunch.  I've gained about a pound a week pretty much throughout my whole pregnancy.  I've started eating grapes and bought a prenatal workout dvd.  It's a start.  Yesterday a stranger guessed that I was only 3 or 4 months along and was really surprised when I told her I was 5 1/2.  So that makes me feel better.  Just can't figure out where all this weight is hiding... I'm just worrying about getting the weight off after Penny arrives, but I heard that if you breastfeed, you loose the weight quick.
