Anyone else going to be able to fight in DH's weight class?

in 3rd Trimester

OK.....DH went for his annual physical yesterday.  He has not been drinking any pop or beer and subsequently has lost about 8 pounds.  So he weighs 157.....I weigh 149 (with 8 weeks to go), NOT FAIR.  A man should not be allowed to loose weight when their wife is pregnant!

    LOL! Pretty sure I could take DH (if I didn't have a baby inside me to protect!) - we're probably within 5 lbs of eachother, and I might actually weigh more at this point Tongue Tied

    I'm close. DH is somewhere around 170, and I'm around 163 with three weeks left to go.  Of course, when we met, I think he actually weighed a couple pounds less than me.  He just gained like 50 lbs over the course of our relationship while I did not.

    Last pregnancy on the day I gave birth I outweighed DH by about 10 lbs.  This time I don't think I'll reach his weight...  I'm about 155 with 7 weeks to go.

    I outweigh my DH at this point. We are both short too and I feel like I look like such a whale next to him.

    I am about 12 lbs below my husband but I am gaining alot more now that I near the end. His job requires him to be a certain weight otherwise I think he would be gaining too, he hates it when im pregnant.

    Haha  :)  My DH is a big guy, so I'm nowhere near him, but my dad is very tall and thin.  I'm pretty sure I weigh more than he does now, and I'm a foot shorter than he is.  It's something we have joked about in all 3 pregnancies.

    Ohh no...Babe played football in HS so he's a big guy anyway, probably 6'1 and 240 or so. Mmm he carries it so well...Stick out tongue Oh! Sorry!

    BUT ANYWAY! lol Thank god I wont be anywhere near him weight wise. But he did start going to the gym so he can tone it up some...I'm proud of him. I cant wait to be able to hit the gym after Babygirl is here. I had just lost about 20lbs and then BAM! PREGNANT! Hmm

    I weigh about 5 lbs less than DH did wheh we started dating.  He, however, has managed to put on about 70 lbs over the last 10 years, so he's still got me beat by alot.  His t-shirts make the most comfy night gowns!

    Thankfully no!  He weighs 220 and I'm around 115/120 pp . . . so we'd have some serious problems if I caught up to him!

    pre-pregnancy he outweighed me by about 30-35 pounds.

    so far i have gained about 40, and he has lost some. i think i outweigh him by at least 20 pounds these days.

    when i complain about weighing more than him he says, "yeah, but you're two people!"

    BF gained 35 lbs since I found out I was pregnant. I've gained 30. He's not overweight, but damn, I guess sympathy weight is a real thing!

    I was 150ish PP and hubby has weighed around 170 since forever. Needless to say I am now weighing in about 4 more pounds with 13+ more weeks to go. This could get ugly. ;)

    Probably.  I think I may weigh more than him right now.  He thinks it is funny.  I don't. :-(

    I started out weighing about 25 pounds less than DH. I surpassed his weight a long, long time ago. I'm not sure why everyone is saying things like, "Yikes, I certainly hope I don't outweigh him!" What's the big deal? We're pregnant. Get over it.

    LOL - I definitely outweigh him! (Although I did start this pregnancy a good deal larger than I've ever been in my life - which is WAY MORE THAN YOU ARE IN THIS THIRD TRI - so it wasn't much of a stretch for me.)

    That said, I agree - he needs needs some pie! Big Smile

    We JUST had this talk the other night, I'm quickly catching up to DH! I'm only about 15 pounds less than him now, how depressing!

    I weigh about 10-15 lbs less than dh right now, but still have 12 weeks left.  Plus DH just went on a diet for high blood pressure, so I'm sure he will lose weight fast.  I'm not happy about it, and it was my goal not to outweight him.

    I've passed DH  awhile ago- my lightweight is 6'1"/154 lbs... he's been +/- 1 lb since we've been together. I'm trying to keep this weight gain the same as DD#1, but my last appt (30 weeks), I weighed 1 lb more than I did the day I delivered DD#1. The bright side is that my gains seem to be 1lb every 2 weeks, so hopefully it won't be too much extra.  :)

    Nah, my hubby is huge, even now that I'm almost done and have gained close to 30lbs he still has a hundred pounds on me, probably more like 110.

    I'm sure I weigh more than my dad at this point though.

    Its so funny you bring this up, this is almost exactly how me and DH are.  I'm currently 143 and DH is around 157.  He's training for a marathon so he's been losing weight, while I've been gaining.  It hit me one day that at the end I could be close to his weight!  I told him my goal is to still weigh less than him at delivery :p  We'll see!
