Re: weight

How far along are you? It does seem odd for you to gain so much when you are not even over eating and staying so active.

When I went in for my 7th month checkup, my nurse told me that I was gaining a lot of weight, although my weight gain was just 20 pounds during my entire pregnancy (my baby was 6 weeks early). She made me very nervous and I consciously started to eat less and skip breakfast before my next weign in at the clinic. Now when I think about it, I feel it was very wrong of me to jeopardize my health, and wrong of the nurse to reprimand me like that. They follow nothing but a weight chart, and judge you according to the standard/general weigh and height charts that they have. Don't worry too much, as long as you are eating healthy and doing some form of exercise (walking is the best). Try to stay away from cookies and ice cream though, coz that fat will stick to you even after the baby is born. I lost 7 pounds the day my baby was born, and I'm sure the weight loss would've been greater if he was a fat baby; he was just 4.5 pounds at birth :) So don't beat yourself, and enjoy your pregnancy and the baby moving.

Re: weight

I've heard and been told so much about this whole weight gain thing. Honestly in the end, if you know you are fine and on right track don't worry about it.

This month you've gained 7 kgs .. What if next month you gain only 1 kg. Don't stress about it. Everyone gains weight at a different pace and at different time of the pregnancy.
