weight gain while ttc

[tea_berries]

Hi ladies. :) sorry I havn't been logging on recently.  I had to clear my head with the depression due to AF LOL> Anyway... did any of you realize that thet gained weight while in the process of ttc?

I have been taking prenatal vitamins lately.  Is my body reacting too much to the vitamins? I never used to go beyond 108 to100 and I am 5'-3" now i am 113lbs.  that's five pounds from 108.  

Just wondering if any of you ladies had this happen during ttc

When I found out I was pregnant I weighed 125 and I am 5'2 I have always been a bit chubby but nothing horrible. I miscarried at 8 weeks in Sept. By December I weighed 145. I gained twenty pounds! lol I am still weighing that but I am thinking of ways to lose it and excersizing more. I naturally hold in my belly so I pretty much look the same but if I push my pooch out then I look 5 months pregnant! I feel cheated!

it's always nice to hear different opinions.  Thank you ladies :)  I just need some new pants now since my pants from last summer won't fit anymore. I have to unbutton it and rely with the zipper to be able to breathe in them LOL.

It took me over a year and a half to get pregnant this time around!! Its funny that you should bring up the subject of gaining weight while TTC!! I put on between 25 and 30 lbs in the time I was TTC!! Every month I would look at the scale and see the numbers going up and up!! I would just tell my self that it didnt matter cause this month I was going to be pregnant and I would gain weight anyways!! Boy was I fooling myself, lol. I didint want to try and lose weight or take diet pills or anything.....It sure did add up!! I am now 25.6 weeks pregnant and have only gained 7 lbs!! I guess the baby has a lot of fat to feed from:)
Good luck TTC and lots and lots of baby dust!!!!!!!!

I had a friend way back that she used to say that sex made you gain weight.  i always thought it was bs until I started having sex frequently and sure enough I was bloated all the time.  As if I was retaining water.  I could have also been eating more since new bf go out to eat, have sex...  So I don't know.  You may also be improving your diet.  And I have noticed some weight gain and I think its the prenatal vits.

my weight went from 115 to 120 then back down to 116 after AF showed then in march i went from 116 to 124 and after late AF showed went to 117 now i am back to 120 since March! and now i am 3 days late for AF again and weigh 120 so i guess you could say i have had the weight problem the whole time ttc!
