s/o weight and laid back dr.

JessandHankJessandHank
in 3rd Trimester
I gained 9 lbs in two weeks... and they didn't bat an eye... told me it was all fluid... doesn't that seem like an INSANE amount?????  My BP was perfect, and no protein at all, but still scares me. It bugs me sometimes that they are so laid back about everything.  I love the practice I go to, and I know women have been having babies forever, but my legs literally look like tree trunks, and the pants are now tight around the knee!!!!!!!!!  I go again friday, hopefully that won't happen again :-/

    I've been all over the place.  I've only gained 20 pounds total, but I gained 10 pounds in a month once, lost 7 pounds the next time, only gained 1 pound at my last appointment.  My doctor has never said a word.

    That happen to me with my last baby, but it did end up being just fluid and I lost around 30 pounds right after I had my baby because most of the weight was fluid, baby, and ect. Try not to worry to much. I know it is hard to do, but keep you'r chin up.
