Put your scale away and don't worry about the weight gain. Baby needs the weight to grow and be healthy. In contrast, I've been in maternity clothes since the first trimester and have gained 30 pounds in 33 weeks. However, I try not to worry about the weight because baby needs what baby needs to be healthy. The weight will come off after baby is born, and faster if you are breastfeeding.
Be happy and enjoy this special time. You must be thrilled to be past the morning sickness! Best wishes!
ok put it in perspective you only have around 10w left and you have only gained 8 and 1/2 lbs!!! That is great! I have gained 29lbs and I have 7 weeks left to go.. so count your blessings... it could also be water weight.. but you need to know you are going to pop out sometime... you cant go all the way without looking pg and wearing your pre preggo pants... it just isn't feasible... don't worry girlll
lol yea.. I eat and enjoy all I can of it.. the dr laughs at me but.. who cares. atleast the baby isnt doing without and I get satisfication out of it.. It will come off when all is done. Enjoy... but I do hear you. sometimes you wonder wow.. how big can I get??? lol
lol tennesee girl I feel ya.. I wasnt able to hardly eat up until a few weeks ago and now I can eat just small meals cus I get full easily but I eat like 10 times a day and my boyfriends like geesh.. lol. but some days I sit and wonder how big am I going to get but like meli said its all for the baby and I should just enjoy it :o}
It was probably a fluke month. That's how my December went. I gained 5 out of my 15 then. Don't fret :)
you know, I like my doctors office.. they use the kilos scale and I have no idea what it comes out to unless I ask.. they just tell me how much I've gained and I have no idea what I weighed before so it's less stressful.. ahaha I wouldn't sweat it, the baby is growing and so is mommy!! You'll be fine!
