Hey all,

Dr. appt friday was a waste of time. We didnt do anything. It was like a first visit. I was hoping to heaar the babys hb, but NO he said he wasnt even going to try!! :o( But he did sch. me for another u/s!!! yay. But not intill monday the 14th. He said it would be good,because everything happened at around this time last time. So I just have to wait again.

I really do hope you get to hear the hb!! Doc said I would just worry if we didnt. I guess he is right! I wish I could loss weight! lol With my 1st son I didnt care how much weight I gained, I was pregnant and happy. I gained about 42lbs with him which is ok, but that was 2 y/o and I have only lost 20lbs, of that and then I gained 15lbs after the m/c. Im just really hopeing tostay around 30lbs this time!! My sister inlaw had her baby last year she didnt gain much and what is didi gain she had off in about 2weeks!! Dam her!!!!

I'm 17w4d and I've only gained 5lbs.... I'm not trying to lose or not gain, I'm just not gaining. I have had a lot of nausea and not really wanting to eat much. I am a BBW, but should I be worried?

as far as the weight goes.... I gained 62lbs, and with my 2nd I gained 54lbs. I didnt lose much of it at all! I really dont want to gain to much with this baby!!!! My cousin just had her 1st baby last night she only gained 14lbs who pregnancy and her baby is 8lbs 4oz....... How lucky was she????  They say to gain on 1lb to 1/2lb depending on your BMI in the 1st trimes.  then 2 to 5 lbs the second trimes. then 1/2 to 1lb every week in the 3rd. trimes. All depending on your BMI # again! Also that would be for only one baby

Good luck to you!!!

I have never really understood the whole due date idea... But thats all it really is because the babies will come when they are ready. My daughter was 5 days early and my son was 9 days late when I opted inducing the labor... Little stinker never dropped until I was in labor.... Thank heaven it went fast and this time I used the epidural!

[mamaofonetrying42]

Oh yea, So when I went in for my u/s they gave me a due date of aug2nd. but at the dr's he then gave me a due date of aug4th?? Way am I getting two different due dates?? If you do the math, my due date should be aug 2 . i guess its not a big deal, but would like to know why??

Everyone is different you may gain or lose weight in your first trimester. I lost 8lbs, since my first visit and I am now over 12 weeks. Besides pregnancy weight does fluctuate lol, though you are one weight today, tomorrow it could be different. I wouldn't worry about the weight, just eat as healthy as possible.

[mamaofonetrying42]

Oh yea, i have also gained 5 pounds. Since the last appt at about 4w5d. Do you think that is bad or normal ? Im in my 3rd month?? I just dont want to gain to much,since I havnt lost all of my last "baby weight" that was 2y/o?? LOL,LOL

[adawning4]

I hope that all goes well for the u/s! I will keep you in my prayers!

Best wishes
