weight check in

[melimeli]

I am 38w3d I have gained 40lbs!!! ugh I only wanted to gain  30 total but when I passed that I said ok 40... I am there.. I hope it is the swelling that has me there already or that I have her this week and don't gain anymore haha.. wishful thinking!!!

Well, as of the 12th I was 21weeks up 10lbs. I'm sure I packed on a few since then. My Mom and I went on a weekend getaway bus trip and lets just say we didn't go hungry. Then yesterday DD and I made chocolate chunk cookies (seemed like a good idea at the time.) I've eaten 8 of them so far! I think I'll suggest she decorates a few zip lock bags and we give some to Nana and Grandpa and Grandma and Pap as a surprise! I'm tellin ya I gotta get rid of theses things before I eat them ALL! ....(the recipe makes 6 doz. What was I thinking!!)

I stoped looking !!
when I noticed when I sit down.. my skin gets dimples, lines !! was just to much for me. smile
NOW who was it that said you dont gain much your last few weeks????? maybe its water?
Heck... Now I know why my ob wants to induce me at 39w !! I just hope this baby isnt to big for me. I see him Thursday... If I dont go into labor befor?

[azqtpies]

I gained 33 and lost 22 lbs at delivery... I had alot of water.. You will lose alot escpecially if you are retaining water which sound like it with the swelling !

I'm up 33 so far at 36w5d - I have 2 weeks left before my induction - I was hoping to stay within 35 but as long as I don't hit 40 I won't be too ticked at myself!

cake and cookies . . . yummy. I wish!  I just look at that stuff right now and gain 5 pounds. Looking forward to opening one of the boxes of stashed Girl Scout cookies after baby is born so I can enjoy them without the fear of getting on the doctor's scale every week.

Do you guys remember around what time you started gaining weight?

I'm 17 weeks and only gained 3.5lbs so far.  Starting weight 112.4 now I'm 116.  Ob doesn't seem concerned, he says I'll be putting on more weight later on.

[tahariel]

I'm still right there with you, girlfriend . . . 40 pounds here too. I was hoping to only gain 35, but I guess I should be happy with 40 since I gained 50 with my last baby. The prenatal fitness class really helped this time around. I went again this morning since I have not been having as many contractions as last week. Just the treadmill today, but at least it's something active for me to do. (39w1d)

[lissamjr]

27 lbs as of last week, will be another story after tomorrow's appt.

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

[AshleysMom]

I'm holding steady at 35 lb and we are inducing tomorrow at 2am!  I just ate a bunch of cake and cookies since no more scale for me.

I gained more like 45 with dd and it all came off within a few months.  Don't sweat it.

Rukiyar, I think you win!  Bite me.  LOL.

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

I started at 204 and my last appt I was 217 but who knows if that's true now.....you want to feel bad about your size well don't go there with me LOL....I was trying to get my bags ready for the hospital since I've got like 10 or less weeks.....well I thought I'd buy a gown in case I had a c-section and can't wear sleepy pants.....well that didn't go well I was gonna have to buy a 3X to fit around my belly......needless to say I didn't get one and ended up leaving wal-mart in tears......that was 2-3 weeks ago I hate to try now I probably need a 4x......used to a lg or xlg would be fine.....not anymore so my bag is still not packed I can't break down and do it....

[rukiyar]

[jifnif]

My goal WAS 25 but I am up 30lbs at only 26 weeks 3days!!!!!  I am really really really trying not to hit the 45lbs that I did my last pregnancy but it looks like I am gonna be close.  

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

my goal is 25 lbs.....LOL I'm suppose to gain up to 40-50 with twins

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

I'm 26.2 weeks and up 13lbs according to the doc but I think I've gained another 3 lbs since my last appt already....so I'm just gonna call is 16 lbs

[alikat1205]

stop looking! what are you going to do now anyway?  when you go to the dr.  stand on the scale backwards so you can't see!  lol.  with my first i gained 44 lbs.  and the second i said i was going to only "allow" myself 25.  yea, right, i gained 42!  i had a dr. who said as long as you weren't morbidly obese to begin with, and you don't gain 100 lbs in pregnancy, don't worry about it.  she was right, there is no point, especially as you get near the end.  your baby must need the calories! you'll have a healthy baby soon!
