maybe its the calcium in the cheese and the milk that makes us crave grilled cheese, milkshakes, and ice cream.  Aren't our babies bones getting stronger everyday?  I say eat that calcium for the sake of your baby!   They need it!  (We however do not) LOL

I understand where you are coming from! I have been craaaaaaaving strawberry shakes! I have to limit myself though b/c I think I may be a little lactose intolerant and sometimes it upsets my stomach.

grilled cheese isn't bad- calcium, protein, ..... that's not bad!  I justified the milkshake that was too- calcium!!  I think it's all about moderation.  I've had 3 milkshakes my whole pregnancy so I don't feel so bad about it.  I think I've only had regular ice cream twice so 5 times in 29 weeks isn't too bad!  I try to munch on carrot sticks, apples, or bananas or if I need quick a fiber one peanut butter bar but I also have a few chips here and there, etc. but I think it's just all moderation!

Im down almost 50lbs at 29 wks. But I was over 200lbs when I started. Now if the breast feeding can take off another 20 I can probably get in a size 10 dress later down the line!

At my last weigh in I was 147 which puts me at gaining 17 pounds at 28 weeks.  I'm kinda freaking out as I only gained 23 total with my daughter and I did gain 30 with my son but had 8 weeks of bedrest so I'm sure that contributed to the extra weight.  I'm worried I'm going to gain the most with this one and I feel like I never sit down chasing after 2  kiddos! AHH!  I know little man is weighing big and weighs about 3 pounds so that makes me feel a little better but what abotu those other 14 pounds?  Oh well...it will come off!

I have gained around 20ish pounds at 32 weeks with twins.  It is hard for me to calculate since I was not weighed until 11 weeks.  I lost 8 lbs. the weekend I was in the hospital...it was all fluids!!
Supposedly, the babies are around 4 lbs.each...but it is my understanding the u/s can be up to a pound off..... up or down.

I actually lost 3 pounds while I was in the hospital, but since have gained back 4. So, total weight gain at 32 weeks is 14 pounds for me. A little on the light side, but my doctor isn't worried. I'm measuring ok, and baby weighed 3.7 lbs at 31 weeks.
