I didn't mean to offend you either. I despise putting on the weight (especially when I'm a bit heavy to begin with). I get on my scale a couple times during the day. I gained 5 lbs in Dec. and I don't want to start gaining a lb a week yet, ugh....

yea.. and they say a c section is really hard to get back into shape to loose the belly... yea I know what you mean melimeli...I hope I didnt defend you any.. was just kidding with you.
My porblem is just the oppisite as yours. I have to work to keep weight on.
Perhaps he just doesnt want to hurt the baby? I know mine is alittle worried hes hurting me or the baby. especially now that he can fill the baby move. when he fills her kick...he gets all grossed out. and eeeking feeling.(I just laugh at him)  It does suck though... because this is when we enjoy it the MOST... atleast I do... :p

Geeze, most of your questions are weight related. Don't fret, the weight will come off like Tennesseegirl says. Just don't make a habit of breakfast lunch & dinner ding dongs. With dd, honestly I can remember going to McDonalds, Taco Bell and KFC all in one stretch.  I'm not doing that this time because I still had about 12 to lose before I got pregnant again. I had a c-section too, its not that bad and you will be fine. I feel sorry for you though because my husband thinks I'm waaay sexy pregnant. Sex is great pregnant! All men are different. I hope he comes around (for your sake :)

what happens is that my dh does not want any s e x with me now that I am pg.. he is not at all attracted to this kind of a body... it sounds bad but hey I cant stand to look at myself naked so why should he... anyway... he tries and never says anything but I know... I want to get back in shape as soon as possible.. I will probably have a c section so that puts off exercise for like I don´t know 2 months... I was a size 14 ever since I have known him so it is not like he wants a supermodel... just someone of normal american size.. haha.. anyway also on top of that I lost 100 lbs 2 years ago and ughhh the thought of having to go threw that again is hell...  He really is´n´t an ***.. he is the most affectionate man I have ever know.. he treats me well.. but just doesn´t get turned on with the way I look now... so if I ever want se x again and believe me I WANT IT haha... I need to try not to put myself into the hole and be able to loose all this relatively fast... ya know

You know, my weight has a mind of it's own .  I give up.  One week I eat super healthy, I gain a pound.  I eat like a hog the next, I gain a pound.

Whatever.  Just go with it!

you crack me up!! your really worried with the weight thingie arnt you? ugh.. I dont want to defend you but when I had my first child in no time I was back in my same ol clothes. now I did breast feed for 6 months.
do it for the babys sake......EAT and be Happy!!
maybe I should be more concerned because of age and all but. this is the time we really really really enjoy all kinds of food. and I will worry about that later after the baby is born... smile    thats my story and Im sticken to it.
now thats all said and done watch me go into my drs office and he tell me I need to cut down..
yea... I just keep getting bigger and bigger too... makes you kinda fill like that cartoon girl with the piece of cake. I think her name was cathy> shes my idle these days. lol
