Fossie, thanks for the photo of pack and play, that is exactly what I was thinking of, but couldn't remember.
I too was worried about not gaining weight, but then all of a sudden it just went ON and had gained 8 pounds in a few weeks. As long as you're eating, I really do think it will come. I just read online that one goal is to have gained 24 pounds by week 24--of course this is for twins. Just want to encourage you to not worry too much, I know that's hard. My experience has been that my body sort of tells me what I need at that time and it fluctuates. Like today: cantaloupe and get this: red cabbage cole slaw salad. I hope to go shopping tonight and try to make that that for the first time. We'll see how that goes!
