[Twisti]

All the preggys in here, how much weight have you gained and how do you feel about it....?

Me ive gained exactly 20lbs...its a bit depressing, but its due to me not paying close attention to what i eat...cant blame anyone but myself...

Re: Okay fess up ladies...

I haven't gained any yet, in fact I think I have lost a few depending on the day of course but I am only 13 weeks pregnant. I was 180 when I got pregnant for my daughter and only gained 20 pounds the whole pregnancy but now I am at about 208 so I am hoping to gain even less. This is a lot of weight for my 5ft 2in frame so I think that is why I don't gain.

::disclaimer : I am *not* pregnant and would probably committ hari-kari were I to find out that I was pregnant. - Of course, if I found out I were, rejoicing would be happening among the masses because it would mean it was more than likely the second coming of Christ. heh heh heh::::


That said - Twisti - You're 33 weeks pregnant and have only put on 20lbs? Lady - that's no small feat and certainly nothing to hang your head about!! Yes- I get the big picture and that with your current weight you were hoping for less - but come on!! 20lbs?! In my book that's fantastic and I just wanted to congratulate you and give you a seemingly needed pat on the back. Thoughts & prayers for a happy, healthy baby girl. The world could use another living angel & I'm glad you get to give us one

Re: Okay fess up ladies...

I have gained 12 pounds with 4 pounds coming on between the 6th an 7th month. The doctor said it was fine that the baby was doubling it's weight so he wasn't worried but it sure worried me!

Great job with only gaining 20!

Re: Okay fess up ladies...

I don't usually post, but I do lurk. I am now 17 weeks pregnant, and at my last doctor appointment (which was 2 weeks ago) I have only gained 4 pounds since becoming pregnant. My doctor is very pleased since I was overweight when I found out I was pregnant, and he only wants me to gain 15-20 lbs. total. I think the biggest thing that has helped me is that I have only had cravings for "healthy" foods (like CELERY and V8 Juice of all things, lol) and spicy foods. I haven't had one single craving for chocolate or ice cream (doesn't that seem strange?).

Re: Okay fess up ladies...

just wanted to add a way to go all you Atkins maintenance preggos.

Twisti with your diabetic high risk med preg you have docs all over you watching you and advising you. if for one minute they thought you were gaining too much they would put a stop to it.
