[Tennesseegirl]

ok.... I am 25w this wednesday and I have gained 12lb...
the dr said GIRL YOU HAD BETTER SLOW DOWN SOME. ever snice, I have wondered what the ?
I have never been one to diet. what the hell is diet food anyway?  I like to snack all the time. I infact have always been one to try and keep weight on.. no butt here.  anyway I lost my prego weight 16 years ago without even trying. I gained 50lb. + with her.
anyway.. just wondering what you gals have gained?

tahariel, i like your take on cookies vs carrots!!!  hope you don't mind if i use that one!!  heehee

I eat well and exercise a few times a week, but my body gains weight while pregnant. I've gained almost 20 pounds at 25 weeks. However, my doctor says I'm doing fine. I'd actually be very happy with gaining a pound a week for the next 15 weeks, because that means my grand total would be only 35 pounds . . . less than either of my other 2 pregnancies. Three cheers to the pregnancy weight gain club!

Given the choice of mini carrots or mini chocolate chip cookies for a snack? I'll take them both!!!  Carrots for the baby and a few cookies for me!  :-)

I am going to die!!!  I gained 10lbs at my first appt and I was 9 weeks then.  I have an appt next week and can barely wait to see what I am up to.  I also have not dropped the ten that was on w/ my previous pregnancy 18mths ago.  so I am pushing an extra 20 around!!  I eat good.  I have breakfast, lunch and dinner.  I don't eat **** (well, very often) but I do eat some chocolate here or there.  It is beyond me how someone doesn't gain any weight.  I am pretty inactive, but after 3 pregnancy losses I am sometimes afraid to breath.  That is also why I never tried to lose the prevoius 10 lbs.  I am usually 105-115lbs.  I didn't want to have a hard time getting prego and my dr said the xtra weight cannot hurt.  You girls make me feel like I should MOOOOOOOve on over to the "diet" forum.  Aren't any of you hungry??  I am a vegetarian and I don't over load carbs b/c I had gestational diabetes last time.  I still put on the pounds??

He had to have been joking.  I'm jealous!!  I think I had gained like 23 pounds by my 25th week, which was too much but still, my doctor didn't act like that.

You are doing great, don't worry about it.

Well I feel bad then cause I have gained 26 and I am at 31 wks today. I usually go by the 36th or 37th wks so I think I am looking at a total of 33 lbs or so. uhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
