if you ARE overweight (like me :) ) then you need to really watch your weight. My body mass index is more than it should be (not insanely so but still) and therefore I need to be careful about how much weight I put on during pregnancy to avoid problems like gestational diabetes (pregnancy diabetes) and gestational blood pressure, kidney damage and all those wonderful things.
You should keep a strict check on your BP please, get one of those home BP apparatuses and monitor your pressure daily and record it for yourself. Also PLEASE stop taking salt so much, or at least reduce it significantly. If you are in your first trimester try to be very responsible about what you DO eat and refrain from carbonated drinks and overprocessed foods like snacks and junkies.

The most an overweight person should gain during pregnancy is around 15-20 pounds. During the course of the entire pregnancy.
Keep in mind girls, all of you, that a pregnant person isn't REALLY eating for TWO. It is just 300 extra calories a day. For perspective that is ONE icecream per day more. But those 300 calories should be taken in beneficial nutritional meals.
Try to include fibre in your diet girls, to avoid constipation. Avoid salt as much as possible to avoid problems of blood pressure raising which happens anyway since we have extra blood in our system for the baby.
I am going to begin taking a multivitamin soon, either that, or something high in vit C and calcium.

Re: Moms 2012- 2013
^ its college. 
Wow the name of devil and the devil is there 
Hope the moms are rocking 
gotta little problem here. Had my us on 9th of august and the doc read the baby development as 18 weeks 6 days. Now I did have another scan yesterday and the doctor said I was 19 weeks. Whereas counting from 10th august when I should have been 19 weeks, I should be 21 weeks and 4 days. I am really cross at these variegated us readings by each gynae 
Can anyone bring a solution here 
Re: Moms 2012- 2013

Re: Moms 2012- 2013
hahaha
I don't plan on having kids anytime soon. It just fascinates me because I love kids and I'm sure once I'm married I'll know a lot more pregnant or wives who have kids then those who don't.
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
^ well sooner or later 
and please do make a blog like that honey suckle one, please 
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
^ thats a great blog. i've seen a couple more like those floating around and it always makes me emo reading them haha.
i kept up a once monthly progress report on the kid for his whole first year- what he did, when he did it, big milestones, etc. i'm going to turn those into a book for him iA.
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
The first ultrasound that you ever had is the most accurate (the 8 week or 12 week one)…as the baby grows bigger it becomes more difficult to correctly give a number. Also, why are you having so many scans? There’s usually only 2 or 3 in the entire pregnancy (8, 12 and 20 weeks).
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
congrats all lucky mom to be inshALLAH...please remember me in your prayers also ....since someone told me that duas being made in this condition never returned unfulfilled!!:)

Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Demo says US are perfectly safe
Actually I havent been able to feel any movements so far. And I was literally eaten up by the fears. So had this US done in order to kill my fears. The dr told the baby is fine, just a little weak
So what to do about a weak baby 
people tell me its fine if the baby is weak now. It will get better in next coupla months. Is that true?
thanks fory our kind words akmoti. Be there
