3rd Trimester

I Hate Weight Posts

But I'm going to do one anyway.

I went to the OB today & learned I've gained 47 pounds so far. Forty fvcking seven pounds.

This kid had better weigh 15 pounds or something. I know my body is doing what it needs to do, I know I'll take it off, I know that probably at least 10 pounds of it is the massive amount of water I've started retaining over the last few weeks. But OMG.

Vent over. I'm back to being okay with my pregnant body again, I swear.

  • I've gained 40-50ish. It goes up and down with my swelling. It will all go away, it's just water weight!

  • WTF, I've gained 36 pounds and my doctor lectures me every single damn time I go there. I stopped crying after the second or third time. Now i just say "yeah, well I'm fine with it"

     

  • I hate the fricken scale these days. I have gained 28 to 30 lbs so far. It depends on the day and I guess my scale. Today it was 28lbs. At this rate I will definitely hit the 40 lb mark.

    Also, I had lunch today with a friend who has a 5 mo old. She weighed approx 145 pp and gained 25 lbs during pregnancy and she told me today that she is at 126lbs. God I sure hope I can loose it like she did. She only dieted, no exercise.

  • My dr gave me crap about gaining 3 lbs last week.... oh I am sorry lady I have two kids in me and have only gained 26 lbs, personally I am not too worried about gaining 3 lbs last week especially when I am on bed rest and get bored and eat
  • The last time I had a dr apt I left and cried, he wasn't happy that I had gained 32 lbs.  now my next apt is monday and I feel like there is nothing I can do about what I will see on the scale.  I eat pretty well, not perfect.
  • Man, I'm right with you!  I hate getting on the scale at the mw's office and seeing the number - especially as I had a specific weight gain limit/goal in mind and my body rebelled and did it's own thing.

    I keep saying I can't wait to get my pre-pg body back but then I realize - nope, that's gone forever so then I get sad.

  • My friend gained about 45-50 pounds and she lost 30 by her follow up appt without even dieting or exercising. Thats 30 pounds in about 6 weeks after birth! 

    She started WW last week and lost another 5. 

    It'll be ok. 

  • I hate that my husband, who is 6'2" and slim, has lost 10 lbs since my pregnancy and weighs 170 lbs.  I've gained 23 lbs thus far and was at 163 on Monday. I'm going to outweigh him.

    Crying

    I think I could handle gaining the weight if he hadn't lost it... I don't want to be the fat cow next to the tall, skinny guy. :(

    This is us from last week on vacation (clicky if you wan to see it bigger):
