28 week check up

[anm89]

Just had my 28 week check up. Man, my weight gain really depressed me.. =/ The Dr said it was perfectly fine and that I should start eating smaller portions and drink only water. I have gained 20 pounds overall now. Ugh. I'm just so disgusted with myself. I was already above the average weight when I got pregnant..so this just makes it so much worse. =/ Everything else was perfect though. Baby girl is doing wonderful! That's all that matters! I go every 2 weeks now! Yay! =)

Stacy-haha! When i told my husband about my appointment and having to come in every 2 weeks his eyes got huge and he said "already?!" Lol!
Shortimama-I wouldn't feel so bad about gaining weight if I could afford to...I'm already heavy and it just saddens me lol. I was a12 starting out..and i don't even wanna know what i am now.

Your supposed to gain weight girly! Dont be sad. It just means your baby is growing well. I started at 120 a size 2 and now at 33 weeks I'm 145.  Still wearing my size 2s unbuttoned with a long shirt lol. Weight gain is good!

And Stacy-omg girl..when he said the check ups were every two weeks I got so scared! Like this craps real! Lol!!

Awww thank you ladies! =) I am just so excited that my little girl is doing great! I know I can get the weight off afterwards, it's just soooo hard to lol. My Dr said since I'm 28 weeks then I start going every 2 weeks now =)

I started going every two weeks at 28 weeks and then weekly at 35 weeks. I think each doctor is just a little different.

I never liked looking at my weight. I always had issues with my weight. (Always thought I weighed more than I do) Ever since I got pregnant I refuse to hear what it is. I tell the doctor unless she is worried about my weight I don't want to know. So far she hadn't said anything about my weight. I know I gained weight but I'm not worried bc I know its baby weight.

[StacyAl91]

That's good that your little one is healthy, just start watching what you eat a little better. It'll go by quick, I'm getting seen every two weeks too. Kinda scary huh? Lol

[arnitia]

Don't beat yourself up love just think as it as the baby is gaining the weight, the baby is growing healthy no so when you have her just work it out that's my plan
