2nd Trimester

Apprently I gained a "boat load" of weight.

 Those were the words my doctor used. I tried to explain that it wasn't my fault and that it was because the baby needed those girl scout cookies.Angel He just raised an eyebrow at me so I don't think be bought my story, lol.

  • That was rude! Im a little worried that my OB my say something about my weight at my next appt but I would be horrified if she refered to it as a 'boat load'.
  • mmm. girl scout cookies!!! I always tell DH that the baby wants it if it's something I shouldn't be eating..

    I have a recipe for cookies that taste just like Thin Mints and are super easy if anyone wants it.

    Ok, yes 7lbs is more than I should have gained in a month but I wouldn't exactly call it a boat load.

  • I got that lecture last week.  The truly sad part is.... I don't remember eating a lot.

  • Last night, DH and I were sitting in bed (eating ice cream) when I commented how he must be glad that I didn't put on a "whole lotta weight" in the process of having kids.  He looked at me sideways and said "I think there's still time."  LOL.

    Also, just wanted to say, though I am quite a few weeks behind you, we are both expecting our 4th!  Congrats.

  • Don't feel bad, I was also told about my weight gain at my last appointment. Like that's what I want to hear...I know that the Dr. is just looking out for my health & the fact that the weight needs to come off after baby gets here, but she sure can be brutal about it! I almost cried last time (stupid hormones)!

  • I gained a 'boat load' of weight @ last weeks appt., 10 whopping pounds! I was a little scared but Dr. said since I'd only gained 1 till then that now I'm where I should be. Big shocker to me, I was expecting to hear her tell me to lay off the GS cookies! But whats odd is I haven't changed my eating habits the entire time.- or so I think.
  • i got that too,,,but what time of day was your previous appt compared to thisone?  Mine was Mar 5 at 9:30am and the next one was Mar 18th at 6:45 pm.....after brreakfast, lunch and dinner.  the 9:30 one i barely ate, (only one donut from DD) My dr said i gained 6lbs, but when i weigh my self, every morning before i shower ( which i always did) i am the same weight from mar 5th!!!!

    Don't stress!
