My pre pregnancy weight was 100-105 pounds and now at 32 weeks im sitting at 139.4 pounds! I thought myself that it was to much but when i asked the lady at the maternity clinic she told me that my weight was perfectly on track! I feel huuuge this is the most I've ever weighed in my whole life lol. Surprisingly not a single stretch mark so far :)

She isn't a doctor so what she says is irrelevant

I have had great people at Wic and terrible ones too. I had one lady with my first pregnancy tell me to my face I was a liar when I told her about my food allergies.  I am severely allergic to peaches, plums, avocado, and a few other pitted fruits. I carry an epipen just in case something gets cross contaminated. She told me that I had to eat those fruits even if I didn't like them. I told her you want to see what happens to me bring me a peach but make sure an ambulance is standing by. I was so mad it's not like I don't eat any fruit. I love berries and citrus I eat bananas and apples. Some people are just miserable with their jobs and take it out on others.

I'm already overweight and I have only gained 3 pounds and I'm 17 weeks and the app says I'm underweight lol you can't go by what this app says

By the way my pre pregnancy weight is under 100 lbs. A few days ago I weighed in at 136. And honestly I'm still super tiny, can't really even see my bump half the time, it depends on you, unless you are actually OBESE and very unhealthy, then you shouldn't even worry about it.

[hannahkn81]

think it's their job to just be mean! I'm 32 weeks and gained over 34 pounds. my obgyn says she's really happy with my weight gain, and the baby itself is just about at four pounds. And a few of my friends with kids have told me when they go into wic they're told they andd the kids are "obese" which definitely isn't true. Lol your post made me really mad.

That is gaining a lot I'm 7 months and I've gained 12 pounds I'm pregnant with my second. Everyone is different but you want to watch what you eat and how much eat like your eating for 1 not 2

Lol they don't weigh me so I lie

[marieramirez]

i know and they say yu could only eat so little!!  n i really do think they exagerate .. my doctor hasnt said.anything so i am just goingto continue eating the same way thank yu ladies!! :)

[crsjv_0415]

I maybe gained the same, maybe a pound our three less im also 6.5 months. I honestly think the wic over exagerates because when i went the lady was freaking out because i gained 16 pounds at 22 weeks, i thought i was doing fine if your doc dosent say anything i would worry!

Just tell her your doctor hasnt sad anything bad about your weight, not everybody is the same, plus it seem like they are always grumpy there at the wic office lol, try to get a morning appointment next time so she wont be taking out her anger on you
