I gained 30 lbs. so far, Damn it!

shelbyram26 · November 2010

I keep reading these posts about "how much weight have you gained?". They irritate me because people whine about gaining 5 lbs in their 20 + weeks of pregnancy.

SHUT UP YOU SKINNIES !

(as much as I wish I was one...)

I've gained 30- probably going to gain at least 10 more by the time this thing is over. SO SUCK IT! HAHA!

Now, where's the peanut butter?

Hellz yeah! I've gained 20 at 24 weeks

Just sit back and enjoy it! I have the rest of my life to be skinny and worry about weight

HAHAHAHA! Love it!!!!

I seriously have NO idea my weight gains exact number. My midwife does but Im not interested in knowing the number. In my teen years I had a bit of trouble with eating disorders. I just want to focus on growing my baby and staying healthy without being tempted to stress over numbers.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

I have gained 15 so far... I'm at the end of the month, so I'm behind most of ya'll. So I'm sure I'll be up there too! I just want to scream... YOU'RE PREGNANT YOU'RE GOING TO GAIN SO STOP OBSESSING ABOUT IT... ITS NOT A DAMN COMPETITION!!!!

I'm glad I'm not alone in my gaining hater feeling!

I big pink puffy heart this post!

I only gained 28lbs with LO # 1, and was so nervous about everything I ate b/c I wanted to be in that ideal 20-30lb range. Well, I was miserable!

This time, I am going to be a fatty and gain as much as I want! I am actually anxiously awaiting March to indulge in McDonald's Shamrock shakes on a daily basis! Yum!

Me and my 16lbs gained are enjoying this post as I sit here watching Biggest Loser and eating a bowl of ice cream

I gained 40 with my last, and am well on my way to the same this time. I lost it easily last time... hopefully will this time as well! We're pregnant, and are supposed to gain weight... our little ones need it!!

Thank you for saying what the rest of us have been thinking! Smile

Can't not love this post! Up twenty lbs at 24 weeks. No stopping me now! But everyone keeps telling me I'm so tiny for being so far along. There is no normal in my book.

sheyscorona · November 2010

Im 21 wks. Iv gained 17... and its realllly realllly hard for me. (Im an emotional eater and I just wanna eat more!)

Plus the ache and shity hair. Im having a hard time trying not to be vain. I think I am gonna have to stop weighing myself. Glad everyone else is going down with me too lol

I always reply the truth to those posts where people gain like 2 lbs in 20 weeks. I am up 18 lbs at 20 weeks and will probably be up about 23ish by 24 weeks. I gained 40 lbs with both my kids and lost it all both times and then some. So annoying when people think they are cool for gaining little to no weight when they are pregnant. FWIW, I feel like most of the people who don't gain weight when they are pregant are overweight to begin with.

lizard76 · November 2010

I just about wrote this post earlier, but got sidelined into a game with DS1. I gained about 27 or 28 lbs. the first time and am looking and measuring about the same this time. I'm up about 12 or 13 lbs right now. I don't eat horribly, but I'm not stressing about it either.

As my husband says, "You're growing a human! Get over it!" Big Smile

sheyscorona · November 2010

My DH has also gained 20 during this pregnancy hahahaha I love him

lalalaurenx0 · November 2010

My dr got after me at my last appt for not gaining weight! I'm so jealous of yall right now! My stomach won't let me eat! Boo to 2nd tri morning sickness. I just want to feed my baby!

So jealous of both of you.. you have no idea. I have been craving a McFlurry all day and had in my mind DH would bring me one home. He didn't think I was serious when I mentioned it earlier, so alas I have been in a funk all night because I didn't get my fix and felt bad for making him drive 25 minutes to get it (plus.. it would melt). You can bet I'll be getting one tomorrow!

Ketie · November 2010

I think this post is hilarious. So far I am up 16lbs and couldn't be happier about the areas in which it has landed. I am just trying to focus on staying healthy (but still grub) and will be damned if I starve myself trying to stay skinny when this is one of the only times in my life that I am actually allowed to have my gut out and it be okay. LOL!

msmaplemae · November 2010

I love empowered women!!! up 18 pds at 21 weeks and growing by the day....enjoying each minute!!!! Lets all enjoy the moments and our bellies! WHoo HOoo

simplysins · November 2010

17lbs so far - and have been eating cookies like there gonna run out on earth. As far as I see it were suppose to gain weight its the one time were allowed to.

Kered6799 · November 2010

I am up probably more than I should be, go back next monday so we'll see. I was weighing myself at home but gave that up. I am not going hog wild but I eat what sounds good and stop when full which is pretty fast these days...seems like I am always eating but if I eat too much then I am miserable. Embrace the weight gain!!

TaraC9474 · November 2010

I was overweight to start with and at my 17 week appointment I was up 12lbs. I have my next appointment today so we'll see.

tistampsup · November 2010

I'm right with you all! I'll find out the exact numbers this Friday, but I really haven't been paying attention.

This is why I'm BFing! Lose those extra calories.

radiant05 · November 2010

Thank you. Glad I'm not the only one. The doc said I was up 17lbs at 20wks, but on my home scale weighing in from my BFP to now it's more like 27.

stacyslo · November 2010

I'm there with ya! Almost 20 lbs at 25 weeks! Oh well. Plus I've been lazy, haven't exercised at all. I do kinda want to start walking to hopefully help with labor but I'm sooooo tired at the end of the day!
