33wk appt today...UGH!

So, I went to my OB for my 33wk appointment and left a little irritated (for lack of better words). I saw the nurse practitioner today and I think I've only seen her maybe one other time in my life. Anyway, she was nice and all but proceeded to tell me that I should try to slow down my weight gain since I have now gained 30lbs and still have 6 weeks to go til my c-section. It's not like I'm obsese by any means, I am 4'11" and was underweight to begin with. I understand that they are looking out for me, but still, I only weigh 8lbs more now than I did before I got pg with DS! She said that really, it's just better for me so that I will be able to get back in to shape easier after the baby...really? UGH! DH doesn't get why I am bothered by this either :o(

    I don't get people sometimes.  This is why I love my doctor --we have it down now where she won't even bother me with what I've gained.  She just says "I'll tell you if you need to slow down or now".  And as if you didn't have other things to worry about.  Just keep healthy and try to let it roll off your back.

    Just forget she even said anything... I've had 2 nurses say something about my weight. My Dr says I'm fine! I'm 32 weeks and gained 33 lb so far! But I gained a lot with DS too and lost it all within 4 mo. Like you I am short and petite! Don't get too hung up on it!

    I feel your pain I am going through the same thing.  I am almost 30 pounds and my doctor told me to keep an eye on it.  How is that possible?  I'm already trying my best to eat right.  It is harder than you think to watch what you eat isn't it? 

    It just bugs me too but everyone says just don't worry about it.  But it bothers me too so you aren't alone..Glad someone else is experiencing this too.
