And it's not just coming from him, it's coming from so many people.
I didn't anticipate that when I got pregnant. But a lot of them are just really really hard on me and some aren't polite either. I get called a bad mother all the time and It's just not fair. I cry myself to sleep a lot. So maybe I should just give in? Even though my diet makes me feel great
I eat a (mostly) raw vegan diet. So basically fruits and vegetables and sometimes nuts and seeds, but nothing cooked. My husband never had an issue with it. He would usually eat what I eat and sometimes I'd make some meat on the side for him.
My doctor says it's an uncommon diet so he wants to keep a closer eye on me but so far everything is perfect. So there is really no medical reason for me to change it.
Most people say I didn't gain enough weight though. They say I look too skinny for being 5 months pregnant.
I went from 115 to 122 lbs with twins which is a bit low but my doctor says since everything else is fine I shouldn't worry about it. I'm just wondering if I don't know I should do something to gain more weight, just so people will shut up about it? For my mental well being and maybe give my husband a bit peace of mind?
Exercise is another thing. I don't do anything heavy, just walking, pilates, yoga and swimming but I get so much critic for it that I sometimes think I should just give it up?
For the record I'm not anorexic I eat a lot of food. On an average day I have well over 2000 calories. I'd have 3 or 4 bananas with a cup or two of berries for breakfast. A big smoothie and a pound of grapes for lunch and a huge salad, sometimes with cooked food for dinner.
