What can I do?? I eat healthy and walk a lot!!! Is there anything else I can do I feel huge and ugly!! Already at eight weeks

My goal isn't to loose weight trust me. LOL. I just happen to be. As long as baby is gaining weight that's all I care about. I have a history of preterm labor so I try to make sure baby is getting fat. If I gain that's fine, but I wanna keep it at no more than 20lbs. LOL. I have about 17 weeks left!!

I am not trying to point you out in particular but when I asked my doctor if I had to gain weight (I weighed 165), he looked at me like I was a horrible person. So now I feel I have to gain weight, when in reality... maybe I didnt?

I'm considered to be overweight.. so no. I'm eating and doing what I should. Baby girl is healthy and gaining like she should.

This is my first pregnancy and all, but isnt it not good to try to lose weight while pregnant?

Some of that is bloat and water weight. With my first I gained 63 pounds, so I understand your worries. I was determined not to gain that much with my second. I watched what I ate, how much I ate, walked and did stairs, and swam a lot. I eat pretty good, I just have my moments. With my second I ended up gaining a total of 25 pounds. I was much happier with that!!
  Now I'm pregnant with number 3 and didn't loose all the weight... So I'm trying hard not to gain too much or too much too fast. I'm 20 weeks and so far I'm down 5 pounds from when I found out I was pregnant.
