The Bub in the Belly

So, here we are... final score is 14 kg. The last few kilos from the 10th kilo onwards have been completely uncontrollable and I've been yo-yoing up and down. I suspect its due to water retention, which on the one hand is good because it will just disappear once I deliver. On the other hand, I feel the water retention in my wrists and fingers - painful! I've also had to buy larger-sized shoes to accommodate my feet which magically balloon up throughout the day, particularly if I'd been walking a lot.
