Dear Scale,

Please be kind to me today.  I've really been dreading stepping on you.  You always make me weigh so much more than I normally do at home.  Besides, I'm kind of emotional today and I don't think I can handle a huge weight gain.

So when I step on you today at 3:00PM, please rise slowly, if at all.  I really don't get where the weight is going since I'm still wearing my pre-pregnancy jeans.  Maybe my head?  It does seem a little bigger...  But I guess vanity is out the window because the last time I saw you, you displayed proudly in bold black letters that I weighed more than my husband.

Anyways, just be nice.

Ever grateful,

Mrs. V
