Do you know if she likes to read? When I was in grad school I pretty much gave up reading for pleasure...what about a Barnes and Noble or national chain book store certificate?
Last week at my (32wks) appt., I was up to 23 lbs. Havent checked this week. With ds1, I gained 34 lbs, ds2, I gained 24 lbs. This time I fig maybe 30-ish lbs?!
22 pounds at 30 weeks. I wanted to keep it under 25 for the whole thing since I was slightly overweight in the beginning (by 5 pounds) but it doesn't look like that will happen.
Well I was up 25lbs.. then I lost 17lbs because of water weight from my kindey issues... so I was up 8, and at my last appointment (last Monday) I was up a total of 11lbs.

I was 32 weeks 5 days at my apt today... was up 16 pounds. My doctor would like me to gain a little more (I started at a 19.8 BMI)... but he is measuring ok, so she is not too concerned.
I was up 26-27 pounds at 33 weeks. I have only gained maybe a pound since then, if that. My gains seem to be slowing a lot since 32 weeks. My goal was 35 pounds total so I think I'm right where I should be.
Re: I know everyone hates weight posts, but at 33 wks...

Well I was up 25lbs.. then I lost 17lbs because of water weight from my kindey issues... so I was up 8, and at my last appointment (last Monday) I was up a total of 11lbs.
