    Bummer. Not to be one of -those people- but the GBS thing is maybe not an easy fix, but not too complicated either, and weight fluctuates alot. Unless its a continual problem w swelling or something, I wouldnt be that concerned- but it sucks none the less. Hope next week's appt is better for you!

    I'm sorry.  That stinks.  If it makes you feel better, I put on 13 lbs in the past month.  Urgh.  Misery loves company.  And although I know it's mostly water weight, it still sucks.   As for the GBS, they will give you antibiotics through an IV during labor.  I read your post from 3rd Tri and I had an IV and still had a natural labor.  You can do it!

    Don't worry about the weight.  I lost 8lbs one day and two days later 4 of it was back.  It's just swelling and water weight.

    The GBS+ sucks, but it can be managed.

    *hugs* It sucks when things don't go as we want/planned. Being okay with the weight gain is never easy - and seeing those numbers jump like that can be really hard. Like PPs have said - could be a lot of water weight. Or a need for a good BM. There are a hundred factors that contribute to stuff like this - and if your doc isn't worried then you should be fine. GL!
