25 week check up

[Flickan]

So went in for my 25 week check up. Thus paat month I gained 15lbs!?! I've held steady all this time til now. Anyone been through this and not have gd?

[Flickan]

Thanks. It was odd...she also asked if I'd been bleeding which I havent. My BP is perfect and no swelling. So not sure what she is concerned about other than gd but its definitely gotten me nervous

I actually gained 15lbs in one month earlier on in my pregnancy. I am now 6 months &have gained a total of 25lbs already lol my doctor doesn't seem too worried &tells me my weight is good so I'm not too worried about it!

Yeah...I just woke up from a 30 min nap, so I hear ya. And I can't keep my eyes even partially open a minute past 11.

Hey, we've got preggo brain ;) months weeks..we get it.

Yeah, I'm just hoping and praying that while on vacation and with all the family stress my in laws have put me under (and it's a doosey) that it is emotion eating I didn't realize is as bad as it was.

I meant 18 weeks lol not months haha

I'm so annoyed about weight gain as well up to 18 months I only gained 3 lbs my bmi for my height I'm considered over weight so I've been super careful not to gain to much to fast well around 18-19 weeks my nausea wasn't so bad and I was finally able to keep food down well I have been eating like crazy I'm always starving but I've been eating for the most part healthy well in 4 weeks I gained almost 10 lbs my doc said he wasn't too concerned as longs I'm not gaining at this rate at my next apt in 4 weeks he said that it wasn't a huge deal that it just meant I was gonna have more lbs to shed after baby .. I'm bumped my daily walk up to an hour 1/2 and tried to eat more salads then sandwiches my weight in was 3 days ago and so far I haven't gained any weight .. I've tossed out any sweets or junk in my house and try to keep indulging to one day a week it hasn't been easy.

[Flickan]

A bit. I think she's waiting to see the results of the GD testing. Belly measured 2 weeks ahead as well. I will do that in about 2 weeks.

Is your Dr concerned?

[Flickan]

Last check on my thyroid was fine. I was overweight to begin with which is why with my daughter I actually lost weight. 3 days before my water broke, I was 5 lbs under my pregnancy weight. Up until now I have lost 10 lbs but now I am 5 lbs over pre pregnancy weight...it's the fact it jumped 15 lbs in a month that has me concerned.
