eating habits
I am still eating my normal amount that i would eat before i was preggers... i eat breakfast/lunch/dinner.... i sometimes will have ice cream after dinner, but other than that i am not eating to much. I actually commented to DH that i think i would sometimes eat more before i was pregnant!
Should i be eating more?

Re: eating habits
as long as the baby is growing, you're fine.
my paperwork from the Dr says that a normal weight woman only needs an extra 300 calories when pregnant.
I'm nearing the end, haven't gained a single pound, and my baby is measuring approx 7lbs right now. With the placenta, increased blood volume, and amniotic fluid, 20lbs of me is "baby related" right now. Our bodies work in funny ways!

This!
I am 37 weeks and up 19lbs. It's all belly. The baby is probably 6 or 7 of that, plus fluid and everything else....
I was worried too in the beginning about not eating enough but I always ate balanced meals. Turned out at the Level II the baby was measuring a little ahead.
Everyone is different. As long as your doctor sees no problems, then you're fine.
Edit: Sorry for the italics. I can't quote correctly.
